Description: The Cracow Pontifical medieval liturgy Henry Bradshaw Society ed. Obertynski Click images to enlarge Description The Cracow Pontifical ed. Z. Obertynski Pub: Henry Bradshaw Society, 1977. First edition. Hardback.  xii, 143 pages. This Polish pontifical was based upon a prototype from the monastery of St Albanus in Mainz in the 10th century, and was destined for use at Cracow. The codex, now in the Jagellonian University Library (Biblioteka Jagiellónska), Cracow, was written c. 1050-1075, most probably either in Cracow or in the scriptorium of the Benedictine monastery of Tyniec nearby, and is a witness to the movement for reconstruction of the Polish Church under Boreslaus the Bold. The book contains a number of prayers and offices not otherwise found in the Romano-German pontificals, and has a number of blessings that seem to stem from Northern France or England. The edition is provided with two forewords (in English) and an introduction (in German), and a full apparatus of sources and parallels to other copies of the Romano-German Pontifical, as well as to various 11th-century English pontificals. ​Condition: very good; bookplate to endpaper.    Get images that make Supersized seem small.Showcase your items with Auctiva's Listing Templates!
