dc.description.abstract In the Beneventan region , chant manuscripts and the chants they transmitted served as a documentary ritualization of political and liturgical transition . In the twelfth century , circumstances relegated the Beneventan monastery of San Pietro extra muros , for which the chant manuscript Ben 35 was destined , and its parent monastery San Vincenzo al Volturno , to liminal frontier positions between political and liturgical factions . Newly -composed music such as that found in Ben 35 anchored the alliegances of these monasteries within a fluctuating political and liturgical context at a time when ties to Rome and assertion of local practices were both necessary to assure the continuation of a monastery's influence . Thus Ben 35's unusual features are more easily explained when greater consideration is given to the context of its origin and destination . In particular , the destination of Ben 35 played a very important role in determining the musical styles of the chants that were associated with the feasts of Saint Vincent and Saint Peter , saints whose cults were most closely tied to the location of the manuscript .
