Why this is in the register

The text received its first edition in 2024: D. F. Wagschal, 'The Old Gloss on the Nomocanon in Fourteen Titles: Introduction and Edition', Dumbarton Oaks Papers 78 (2024): 105-41, recorded in the DOP 78 item metadata (https://archive.org/details/DOP78_06_Wagschal). HOLLIS Primo 'Old Gloss Nomocanon fourteen titles' returns only the DOP volume itself (https://hollis.harvard.edu/discovery/search?query=any,contains,Old%20Gloss%20Nomocanon%20fourteen%20titles&tab=Everything&search_scope=MyInst_and_CI&vid=01HVD_INST:HVD2&offset=0 i.e. the edition, with no translation. No English rendering of the gloss was located in any series or catalogue checked.

The 'old gloss' is the earliest continuous Byzantine commentary on the Nomocanon in fourteen titles, transmitted anonymously in the manuscripts of the Nomocanon. Wagschal's 2024 edition is the first to isolate it; whether the same material appears among the 'scholia antiqua' printed by Beveridge (1672) was not verified. Neither the date nor an open Greek text could be verified from the sources consulted, so both are left open. The e-text entry is the journal item containing the edition, not a public-domain Greek text.
