Abstract:

A single volume of a handwritten Bible of Czech provenance is located at the Archdiocesan Archives of Gniezno. The Bible was created in 1414 and its signature is BK Ms 142. This article presents and analyses the book in comparison with the rest of the library manuscripts present at the Archdiocesan Archives. The Czech Bible is a part of a small subset of biblical codices and an equally small group of Czech codices. The article concludes with a few research questions, connected to, among others, a paleographic study and the examination of the traditions of the biblical texts.
