Catalogue of the Slavonic Cyrillic Manuscripts of the National Szechenyi Library

The catalogue describes 56 manuscripts in the library in Budapest, most of which have never been described before and are therefore essentially unknown to scholarship. They are generally medieval manuscripts, but more recent material is included that comprises a continuation of earlier traditions. Only codices and fragments of codices are cited, and so not charters or other archival document, and principally documents written in the Slavonic languages, and so none of the collection's Rumanian cyrillic manuscripts. Supporting the catalogue are 75 photographic reproductions, some in color, and 39 pages of watermark drawings. Distributed in the US by Books International.
