Abstracts

EN

The article deals with a gothic bible recently found and coming from a private property in Olomouc (Czech Republic). The codex belongs to the category of „Paris bibles“ by its text structure and to the category of „hand-bibles“ by its external appearance – this kind of bibles was primarily intended for the needs of private study. This well conserved codex is decorated with a great number of initials. As far as the illuminations are concerned the nearest parallels to them can be found in the works of the so-called workshop Mathurin existing in Northern France during the second third of the 13th century. These affinities allow to define the time of the origin of the Olomouc copy in the mid-13th century and to locate it in some of the centres of Northern France – which nevertheless cannot be identifi ed till now.
