Medieval Manuscripts from the Premonstratensian Canonry in Nová Říše

In 2023, the library of the Premonstratensian Canonry in Nová Říše digitised four manuscripts from the 15th century. A codex of Czech origin is an incompletely preserved antiphonary acquired in 1414 for the Cistercian monastery in Sedlec (shelf mark NR 81). The other manuscripts come from Western Europe. They comprise the richly illuminated Speculum humanae salvationis from the first third of the 15th century (NR 80), a short mystical text (NR 75) and the book of hours written and illuminated in Flanders in 1480 for Jan van der Scaghe and his wife Anne de Memere (NR 90).
