Abstract:
The collections of the Regional Museum in Olomouc include under the title Olmützer Losbuch a German-language illuminated manuscript. It is an example of a type of lot or oracle book widespread in the Middle Ages, namely the text Losbuch mit 32 Fragen. The study examines the organisation of the Olomouc copy as well as the interconnection of its textual and pictorial elements, and it compares the manuscript with related codices from Heidelberg and Edinburgh. In particular, it analyses and compares the individual patterns, i.e. the elements that help the reader understand the structure and conten

Abstract:
The Book of Revelation continues to fascinate and frighten Christians in equal measure. In 2017, a self-proclaimed “Christian numerologist” using the pen name “David Meade” claimed that a rogue planet would collide with Earth on September 23, 2017, thereby inaugurating the End Times; he based his claims, in part, on his reading of Revelation 12 (when the cataclysm failed to occur, he revised his prediction to October 15 and then October 21). The Middle Ages also saw a sustained interest in Revelation, one measure of this being the large number (over 130) of surviving illuminated manuscripts of

Abstract:
The Danse Macabre as an iconographic theme appears in the Middle Ages across all of Europe carrying within it a message of the equality among people regardless of their station in life. Medieval artists used the various templates available to them: Biblia pauperum, Meditationes Vitae Christi, Legenda aurea, artistic templates, woodcuts, illuminated manuscripts, and the like. Scenes of the dying and death of ordinary people were not a theme of iconographic content prior to the Late Middle Ages, but rather begin to appear in the 14th century. There emerge at that time several categories of icono

Abstract:
Wedding rituals and ceremonies have been depicted in various forms of literature, art, and illuminated manuscripts in medieval times. These representations offer valuable insights into the cultural, religious, and social aspects of weddings during that period. This article considers the state of research on visual representations of the wedding ceremony in the Middle Ages and how these pictures reflect legal, religious, and cultural/social aspects of medieval life in Europe. Using examples from various religious, literary, and legal texts, several questions will be addressed: In which contexts

Abstract:
The relations between the verbal component, the visual component, and the translational aspect of a given text have been discussed and described by translation scholars and semioticians in a diversity of manners. A significant graphic element may be introduced during the translation production, usually in dialogue with the verbal one, thus creating a new intersemiotic text. Medieval manuscripts are known for offering their readers illustrations, miniatures, rubrics, decorated initials, colored and gilded details, and other visual ingredients. As a result, the codex functions as an essential in

Abstract:
Johan Huizinga describes the waning Middle Ages as an epoch saturated with symbols and images. The numerous cathedrals and monuments from this period confirm the point, with their multitude of allegorical scenes depicted in murals and on pillars inside and out. The same can be said of those illuminated manuscripts so lavishly and carefully done that they transmit the message of the text on a pictorial level. During the Middle Ages, the image seemed to occupy a central role with regard to the perception of a given manuscript. In fact, the prestige of a manuscript was often tied to the quality a

Abstract:
This thesis on medieval sermon manuscripts aims to increase our understanding of the Franciscan Berthold von Regensburg, who is considered to be the most significant German preacher of the late Middle Ages. For this reason, I have selected twenty-one Latin and six German codices, dating from the thirteenth to the fifteenth century. These codices have been analyzed to identify the writing material, internal structure and paratextual features. The underlying idea is that the codicological and paratextual organisation delivers insight not only into the date and provenance of the manuscripts, but

This thesis examines three manuscripts which demonstrate negative attitudes towards the Latin translation of the fourteenth-century Old French mystical work The Mirror of Simple Souls, written by Marguerite Porete. Marguerite was burned at the stake for heresy in Paris in 1310, and her Mirror was also condemned and meant to be destroyed. The Mirror survived inquisitorial efforts to exterminate it, was translated into Italian, Middle English, and Latin, and became accepted and valued by many religious circles in the later fourteenth and early fifteenth centuries.
