Can anyone tell me if the Institutio Canonicorum (Rule of Aachen (Aix-la-Chapelle)) of 816 is definitely not the same thing as the Statuta (First Capitulary) of Gerbald of Liège? I'm two-ish weeks out from my thesis submission and do not have the time to go on a deep-dive for a footnote.
Admittedly it is a footnote explaining that it is beyond the scope of my thesis to figure out how either text influenced the writing of Wulfstan and Ælfric, but I just want to be absolutely certain that they are, in fact, two texts and not one by two names.
