Lýsing á handriti

Blaðefni
Paper.
Blaðfjöldi
The manuscript comprises, in its present state, 304 leaves with an average size of 190 X 150 mm. The written area is on average 160 X 120 mm.
Tölusetning blaða

Paginated in pencil following conservation in May 1963. Remnants of older foliation, also in pencil, are visible on most leaves.

Ástand

The manuscript begins and ends defective; in addition many of the leaves are damaged, resulting in some cases in loss of text.

  • Item 1: The text begins defective toward the end of the fifth fit (22 stanzas remain of a presumed 74), suggesting that probably two eight-leaf quires are missing. The leaves are badly damaged, in particular the first 12, resulting in extensive loss of text. The second half is largely readable, although damage to the edges of the leaves has in some place affected the text.
  • Item 6: Some damage, especially pp. 273-78 and 293-98, but with only slight loss of text; pp. 275-302 are stained with blue ink in the upper outside corner.
  • Item 7: There is some damage, especially to the first (pp. 309-10) and third (pp. 313-14) leaves but with only slight loss of text.
  • Item 14: There is extensive damage to most of the leaves, resulting in loss of text.
  • Item 16: There is only a single page preserved of these rímur, which end with the first line of v. 14, Þar var enn ä þengels hiall .

Skrifarar og skrift

The main hand, found on pp. 1-532, is that of Jón Þórðarson. The script is standard early-modern cursive, extremely clear.

The second hand, found on pp. 533-621 and in additions and corrections at various points in the rest of the manuscript (e.g. p. 531, where a verse is added in the lower margin), is generally darker and slightly more cramped, but easily legible.

Band

Formerly unbound, the manuscript was in the course of conservation in 1963 divided into three volumes.

Uppruni og ferill

Uppruni

The bulk of the manuscript, i.e. items 1-13, was written, according to several colophons, in 1695 by a man named Jón Þórðarson, who also copied many manuscripts for Magnús í Vigur (as did his father, Þórður Jónsson). Jón's hand is also found on ff. 30-78 in the manuscript AM 345 4to, which according to colophons on ff. 50r, 74r and 78v was also written in 1695. In the colophon on f. 74r the place of writing is given as Kalfa wyk, i.e. Kálfavík in Ögurhreppur, Ísafjarðarsýla. Because of this, Björn Karel Þórólfsson refers to Acc. 22 as Kálfavíkurbók, a name by which it is sometimes referred to in later scholarship. The colophon to the 12th item, Landrésrímur, however, indicates that Acc. 22 was written, at least a large part of it, at Óshlíð, near Bolungarvík, the site of a large fishing station. The last three items are in a different, but obviously contemporary, hand. In this same hand are a number of corrections to Jón's text, generally on the basis of readings from other manuscripts. This hand appears to be the same as Hand 12 in AM 148 8vo (Kvæðabók úr Vigur), and is likely to be that of the manuscript's owner.

Aðföng

AM Accessoria 22 was not, as the shelfmark indicates, part of Árni Magnússon's original collection, but is rather a later addition. It was offered for sale to the Arnamagnæan Commission in 1902 by Björn Líndal (1876-1931), a young Icelandic law student then at the end of his first winter at the University in Copenhagen. Prof. Finnur Jónsson examined the manuscript and recommended in a report to the Commission (Den arnamagnæanske Kommissions Arkiv, Styrelsen, Korrespondance, 17 (1898-1906), Jno 7, 1902) that it be purchased for the price asked, 75 kroner, hvad jeg, i betragtning af håndskriftets formentlige værdifuldhed, ikke antager er for meget. In his report Finnur pointed out that the colophons to items 5, 10, 12 and 13 showed that although written at the very end of the 17th century at least half the texts in Acc. 22 derived from a significantly older source (or sources — it is not made clear whether all these texts were copied from a single vellum, nor is anything said regarding the exemplar(s) for the other texts in the manuscript). Thus, although in all but five cases earlier manuscripts exist (AM 604 4to, known as Staðarhólsbók, an early 16th-century vellum, contains texts of ten of the rímur items preserved here, and Wolfenbüttel, Herzog August Bibliothek, Codex 42.7 4to, a vellum from the late 15th century, contains texts of six), Acc. 22 was therefore of great textual-critical value. He specifically cited the texts of Skikkjurímur and Griplur in Acc 22 as gennemgående bedre og korrektere end i de andre (i udgg. benyttede), and in the case of the former at least went on to use Acc. 22 as the basis for his edition in Rímnasafn.

The manuscript formerly also contained, probably between what are now items 6 and 7, Jóns rímur leiksveins (3 in number) and Sigurðar rímur Fornasonar, but these had been removed and sold to the Landsbókasafn in Reykjavík before the manuscript was acquired by the Arnamagnæan Commission. The whereabouts of the latter fragment is now unknown, but the former, comprising six leaves — the only manuscript, in fact, in which these rímur are preserved — is now Lbs 861 4to. The text is printed in Finnur Jónsson, Rímnasafn II, pp. 825-842.

Regarding the manuscript's earlier history Björn Líndal was able only to say that he had got it from Guðmundur Árnason, en fattig húsmaður , from Miðfjörður in Húnavatnssýsla, Northern Iceland (Björn was himself from Útibleiksstaðir in the same district), and that Guðmundur had in turn got it from an old farmer named Einar from Urriðaá, also in Miðfjörður.

The manuscript was transfered to Iceland in November 1989.
