Beschreibungen/Notizen
In 1894 the private scholar F. W. E. Roth published 14 Old High German glosses, which he claimed he had discovered in a manuscript in his own possession. Although the whereabouts of the manuscript have been unknown ever since, the glosses have been accepted as genuine by the Old High German research community. Recently the archivist Klaus Graf raised the suspicion that Roth had forged the 14 glosses mentioned above. The present article picks up Graf's request to review Roth's publication by taking his specifications regarding the manuscript into account and by investigating possible sources for the forgery.
