• Description:
  New manuscript witnesses of S. Adalberti vita altera in the Benedictine abbey of Rajhrad in MoraviaThe Second Life of St. Adalbert of Prague by Bruno of Querfurt (BHL 38–39) survives in small number of copies, so every new witness is potentially important for reconstructing the text closest to the original. The article discusses two such previously unused manuscript witnesses; both are abridged versions for liturgical use, currently in the Benedictine monastery in Rayhrad (Moravia). The first one contains the introducing parts of the text (in its shorter redaction) as a part of a 1342 breviary (no. R 394), which is of interest also due to it containing a historiated initial with the oldest depiction of St. Adalbert in the cephalophore type. Due to the method of abridging – selected fragments copied in extenso – this manuscript is useful both for constructing the archetype and the history of the text in Czech milieu. The second witness is contained in a 1613 antiphonary (no. R 30). This text appears to be a selective manuscript copy from 1590 print by Frans Verhaer (Franciscus Haereus), which in turn is an abridged and stylistically modified version of the longer redaction printed earlier by Larentius Surius from a currently lost manuscript.After presenting the manuscripts themselves, the article discusses the corpus of readings, analysing the similarities and differences with previously known witnesses. The author also focuses on re-evaluating the readings of a previously known Rayhrad witness, a twelfth–thirteenth-century lectionary (no. 376).An appendix presents the corpus of Moravian readings against the background of the rest of the manuscript tradition.
