This Cambridge University Press book reconstructs and studies a twelfth-century manuscript that came from the monastery at Lambach in Austria. It examines three aspects of the manuscript: its music, its liturgy and its illustrations.
The manuscript was broken up in the 1400s, and its leaves passed to various collectors in the twentieth century. The authors gather those pages together, photographically, for the first time since the original was dismantled.
The book will interest historians of medieval music and liturgy, and readers who want to see how a dispersed manuscript can be brought back together on the page.
