Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: NEW-NUM
NOTKER , a name of frequent occurrence in the ecclesiastical history of the middle ages. NOTKER BALBULUS (c. 840912) was a native of northern Switzerland, and for many years magister in the school of St
Gall
 . He compiled a martyrology and other works, but is famous for his services to
church
  music and for the " sequences " of which he was the composer. He was canonized in 1513. His life is in the Bollandist Ada Sanctorum, April 6th. NOTKER LABEO (d. June 29th, 1022) was also an instructor at St
Gall
 . His numerous translations, including those of the Old Testament
Psalms
 , the categories of
Aristotle
 , the De nuptiis Mercurii et Philologiae of Martianus
Capella
 , and the De consolatione of Boethius, into Old High German, may possibly have been the
work
  of his pupils. They possess considerable philological
interest
 , and have been edited by E. G. Graff (Berlin, 18371847), and by P. Piper under the title Nolkers and seiner Schule Schriften (18831884).
