Etymologiarum sive Originum libri XX (622 - 633) Isidore of Seville |
| Quotation |
Vnde et Burgundionum gentis nomen inhaesit, quos quondam subacta Germania Romani
per castra disposuerunt, atque ita nomen ex locis sumpserunt.
Collegiati dicuntur, quod ex eorum collegio custodiisque deputentur, qui facinus aliquod commiserunt.
Est enim sordidissimum genus hominum patre incerto progenitum. |
| Translation |
Hence also the nation of Burgundians got their name: formerly, when Germania was subdued, the Romans scattered them among their camps, and so they took their name from these places. 29 . Collegiati are so called because they are removed from their board of officials ( collegium ) and their responsibilities, because they have committed a crime. The vilest class of people are those born of an unidentified father. (Trans. Barney, Lewis, Beach and Berghof, p. 205) |
