English

The Museum of the Brno Region provided access to five medieval manuscripts from the collections of the library of the Benedictine Abbey in Rajhrad in 2020. The earliest of them is a parchment manuscript containing the lives of saints from the turn of the 14th century, most likely of German origin (R 582). The other codices come from the last quarter of the 14th century from the area of the medieval Czech state: two of them contain mostly sermons (the most extensive part of R 413 is a postil by Konrad Waldhauser; R 379 includes i.a. sermons by Antonius Azaro of Parma); only the work R 408 comprises a commentary on the Gospel of Luke by Nicholas of Gorran and R 381 contains the treatise on vices and virtues by William Perault.
