Review excerpt:
""Anyone who works intensively with mediaeval manuscripts will be familiar =
with the series <i>Die illuminierten Handschriften und
Inkunabeln der =F6sterreichischen Nationalbibliothek</i>, a
post-war continuation of the older <i>Beschreibendes Verzeichnis
der illuminierten Handschriften der Nationalbibliothek in
Wien</i>.  Although the vast manuscript collections of the
Austrian National Library are fully catalogued elsewhere, the
purpose of this series is to present that part of the Viennese
treasure which by virtue of its decorative or illustrative
content is of art-historical as well as literary interest,
grouping the manuscripts into schools according to chronology and =
geographical provenance and combining scholarly discussion with visual =
representation.  Previous volumes have dealt with
manuscripts of French, Dutch and Flemish origin, and the present
authors have been commissioned with the task of producing a
similar catalogue for, in the broadest sense, the German
material. ...."  Reviewed by Graeme Dunphy, University of Regensburg
