Summary
Annotation The catalogue describes the smaller manuscript collections located in the federal state of Salzburg in compliance with the guidelines of the department of Paleography and Codicology of the Institute for Medieval Research in the Austrian Academy of Sciences. Up to now, only a few manuscripts from the Kollegiatstift Mattsee, the Archiv der Erzdiozese Salzburg, the Archiv der Stadt Salzburg, the Salzburger Landesarchiv and the library of the Salzburg Museum were allocatable via the inventory of the Hill Monastic Manuscript Library. The manuscript collections are now for the first time accessible via the catalogue at hand following modern scientific standards. The majority of the manuscripts featured in the catalogue was written in the Late Middle Ages in the area of the medieval archdiocese of Salzburg and contain theological, legal and medical texts. In addition, however, the collections also include 9th-century fragments and 16th-century manuscripts, as well as manuscripts from the medieval intellectual centers of Italy and France. A significant number of manuscripts also transmit a wide scope of texts in the German vernacular: these include normative texts and works on historiography and theology, heraldry and military engineering, medical and alchemical receipts.
