Abstract

The report on the finding describes the hitherto unknown Codex of the Prague Monastery of Our Lady of the Snows, which was written around the middle of the 15th century. A detailed analysis has revealed that the Prague Codex is closest to a manuscript from Heidelberg (1442) and that the Prague Codex have features of the Swabian dialect.
