Manuscript Latin Germany

Paulus Hector Mair, Fabian von Auerswald, Gregor Erhart, Martin Huntsfeld, Jörg Wilhalm Hutter, Hans Lecküchner, Lew, Johannes Liechtenauer, Andre Lignitzer, Ott Jud

Canonical witness from Wiktenauer Manuscripts source row 85. Source date: 1542. The identifier is included in the work title to prevent false duplicate matching.

Quality phase 371: KdiH and the SLUB catalogue date the two-volume manuscript after 1542 and localize its production to Augsburg. Mair commissioned and compiled it; nine transmitted author traditions and Jörg Breu the Younger as illustrator are separately linked.
