Medieval Manuscripts of the Museum of the Brno Region

The Museum of the Brno Region provided access to another five medieval manuscripts from the library of the Benedictine monastery in Rajhrad in 2016. The earliest of them is the collection of sermons from the first half of the 14th century (R 424). Sermonic literature is also represented by codex R 370 with texts of Johannes Hieronymus (Silvanus) of Prague. The main part of another two manuscripts is formed by the Vocabularius Ex quo (a Latin-German dictionary); its inscription in the manuscript R 391 states the year 1447, R 586 comes from 1481. Codex R 392 with moral-educational writings originated in 1417.
