New manuscript witnesses of S. Adalberti vita altera in the Benedictine abbey of Rajhrad in MoraviaThe Second Life of St. Adalbert of Prague by Bruno of Querfurt (BHL 38–39) survives in small number of copies, so every new witness is potentially important for reconstructing the text closest to the original. The article discusses two such previously unused manuscript witnesses; both are abridged versions for liturgical use, currently in the Benedictine monastery in Rayhrad (Moravia). The first one contains the introducing parts of the text (in its shorter redaction) as a part of a 1342 breviary (no. R 394), which is of interest also due to it containing a historiated initial with the oldest depiction of St. Adalbert in the cephalophore type. Due to the method of abridging – selected fragments copied in extenso – this manuscript is useful both for constructing the archetype and the history of the text in Czech milieu. The second witness is contained in a 1613 antiphonary (no. R 30). This text appears to be a selective manuscript copy from 1590 print by Frans Verhaer (Franciscus Haereus), which in turn is an abridged and stylistically modified version of the longer redaction printed earlier by Larentius Surius from a currently lost manuscript.After presenting the manuscripts themselves, the article discusses the corpus of readings, analysing the similarities and differences with previously known witnesses. The author also focuses on re-evaluating the readings of a previously known Rayhrad witness, a twelfth–thirteenth-century lectionary (no. 376).An appendix presents the corpus of Moravian readings against the background of the rest of the manuscript tradition.

Legendarium Magdeburgense (Berlin, Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin, Ms. Magdeb. 26 i 138) to pochodząca z połowy XV w. obszerna dwutomowa kolekcja hagiograficzna. Zawiera ona przeróbkę-skrót stosunkowo rzadkiego żywotu św. Wojciecha (inc. Nascitur) Brunona z Kwerfurtu w redakcji dłuższej (Bibliotheca hagiographica latina [dalej: BHL] 38), wybór z Miracula s. Adalberti (BHL 44, BHL 45), odpis Vita et Passio Brunonis (BHL 1471b, BHL 1472), pasję tzw. Pięciu Braci w wersji Kosmasa (BHL 1148) oraz wypis z epitome kroniki Kosmasa znanej dotąd z jednego zaledwie kodeksu. Artykuł poświęcony jest przede wszystkim kopii pierwszego z tych utworów, jej miejscu w tradycji rękopiśmiennej oraz datowaniu przeróbki. Towarzyszy temu krótka analiza odmianek utworu drugiego oraz uwagi dotyczące pozostałych wymienionych utworów i zapisek kalendarzowych o będących ich bohaterami świętych. W tle poczyniono też uwagi na temat sposobu pracy kompilatorów Legendarium Magdeburgense.

The Legendarium Magdeburgense (Berlin, Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin, Ms. Magdeb. 26 and 138) is a large two-volume hagiographical collection compiled in the mid-fifteenth century. It contains a reworking (abridgement) of the relatively rare longer redaction of the “Second Life” of St. Adalbert of Prague (inc. Nascitur by St. Bruno of Querfurt (Bibliotheca hagiographica latina; hereinafter: BHL 38), a selection from Miracula s. Adalberti (BHL 44, BHL 45), Vita et Passio Brunonis (BHL 1471b, BHL 1472) as well as a passio of Five Brothers (BHL 1148) in a version derived from Cosmas of Prague’s chronicle and a short extract from an epitome of Cosmas (the Brunswick epitome known from a single copy). The article focuses on the witness of Nascitur, its place within the manuscript tradition and the dating of the reworking. It is accompanied by a brief analysis of textual readings of Vita et Passio Brunonis and their value vis-à-vis the existing edition, as well as some notes concerning the remaining texts and the calendar entries for those texts’ saints. All of the above are supplemented with the remarks focused on Legendarium Magdeburgense compilers’ method.
