From: John Dillon <[log in to unmask]>
> 5) Guinizo of Montecassino (d. ca. 1050). ...His present name form is down
to Peter the Deacon; abbot Desiderius II (a.k.a. Bl. Victor III), writing some
seventy-five years earlier, calls him Gumizo.
surely this is just the result of a misreading (either middlevil or modren) of
"m" for "in," isn't it?
or, was Desiderius' "m" misread as "in" by Pete?
either way, for the want of a dot over the eye, the whole danged horseshoe was
lost...
