It survives solely in the Old Gelasian Sacramentary (Vatican Reg. lat. 316), an 8th-century Frankish compilation. The text likely dates from the late 5th to early 6th century, but its composition may be later, reflecting post-Roman liturgical consolidation. The attribution to Theodoric is traditional but unverifiable. This edition is based on a single source (ogl-pl) and does not collate variant readings; textual criticism remains incomplete. The formulary was later incorporated into the Roman-German Pontifical (10th century) and influenced medieval synodal liturgies, though its direct use declined after the Tridentine reform.","historical_context":"The work is set in the late 5th to early 6th century, during the reign of Theodoric the Great (c. 454–526), Ostrogothic king of Italy. Theodoric sought to maintain Roman administrative and ecclesiastical structures while ruling as an Arian Christian over a largely Nicene population. The text is a liturgical formulary for a synodal mass, likely used in church councils convened under royal or papal authority. It survives only in the Old Gelasian Sacramentary (Vatican Reg. lat. 316), an 8th-century Frankish compilation that may have altered or interpolated the original Gothic-era text. The genre is canon law, specifically a liturgical formulary for synods. The work's transmission is limited to this single manuscript tradition, with later incorporation into the Roman-German Pontifical (10th century). Its relation to other Christian literature includes connections to synodal liturgies and the Collectio Avellana, a 6th-century collection of papal and imperial documents reflecting Ostrogothic mediation in ecclesiastical disputes.","significance":"The Praeceptio Altera Missa Ad Synodum is significant as a rare liturgical formulary from the Ostrogothic period, illustrating the intersection of royal authority and ecclesiastical governance in post-Roman Italy. It provides insight into the liturgical practices of synods and the role of Arian rulers in Nicene church affairs. Its survival in a Frankish compilation highlights the transmission and adaptation of Gothic-era texts in medieval Europe, influencing later synodal liturgies until the Tridentine reform.","timeline":[{"date":"c. 454–526","event":"Life of Theodoric the Great, Ostrogothic king of Italy, to whom the work is traditionally attributed."},{"date":"late 5th–early 6th c.","event":"Probable composition period of the Praeceptio Altera, reflecting post-Roman liturgical consolidation."},{"date":"6th c.","event":"Compilation of the Collectio Avellana, a collection of papal and imperial documents that includes related Ostrogothic mediation in ecclesiastical disputes."},{"date":"8th c.","event":"Compilation of the Old Gelasian Sacramentary (Vatican Reg. lat. 316), the sole manuscript witness of the Praeceptio Altera, in a Frankish context."},{"date":"10th c.","event":"Incorporation of the formulary into the Roman-German Pontifical, influencing medieval synodal liturgies."},{"date":"16th c.","event":"Decline in direct use of the formulary after the Tridentine reform."}],"relations":[{"work":"Old Gelasian Sacramentary","relation":"sole manuscript witness; 8th-century Frankish compilation that transmits the text","key":"","label":null,"url":null},{"work":"Roman-German Pontifical","relation":"later incorporation of the formulary (10th century)","key":"","label":null,"url":null},{"work":"Collectio Avellana","relation":"contemporary collection reflecting Ostrogothic mediation in ecclesiastical disputes","key":"","label":null,"url":null},{"work":"Praeceptio Altera Missa Ad Synodum","relation":"attributed to Theodoric; part of synodal liturgy tradition","key":"","label":null,"url":null}],"external_links":[],"cautions":["Attribution to Theodoric is traditional but unverifiable; the text may be a later composition.","The sole manuscript witness (Old Gelasian Sacramentary) is an 8th-century Frankish compilation that may have altered or interpolated the original text.","The date of composition is uncertain; it may range from the late 5th to early 6th century or later.","Textual criticism of the Praeceptio Altera remains incomplete; this edition does not collate variant readings from other manuscripts."],"model":"deepseek/deepseek-v4-flash:floor","provider":"Relace","cost_usd":0.000581,"generated":"2026-11-15T06:04:29Z"},"links":[{"kind":"source","label":"Open Greek and Latin Patrologia Latina","url":"https://github.com/OpenGreekAndLatin/patrologia_latina-dev/blob/master/data/tmp1260/tmp1260/tmp1260.tmp1260.opp-lat1.xml"}],"checks":{"work":"tmp1260.tmp1260.opp-lat1","status":"pass","blocking":[],"warnings":[],"stats":{"passages":4,"translated":4,"commentary_passages":4,"commentary_units":23,"english_words":803,"source_letters":3397,"commentary_kinds":7},"model":"deepseek/deepseek-v4-flash:floor"},"work_notes":[{"unit":"sense","kind":"sense","basis":"text","lemma":"","severity":"info","text":"The work is a liturgical formulary for a synodal mass, attributed to Theodoric, king of the Ostrogoths (c. 454–526).
