Fragmenti srednjeveških koralnih rokopisov v ljubljanski Semeniški knjižnici

The Seminary Library in Ljubljana, founded in 1701, keeps 17 fragments from destroyed choral books. These are fragments accidentally preserved as paper-material used on the backs and on the inside of book-covers of younger, bound manuscripts and prints, 14 fragements are written in the Gothic notation (Hufnagelschrift), 3 in the square one. The choral books from which they come are by type graduals, sequenciaries and antiphonals, from the time extending from the 2nd half of the 14th until the end of the first half of the 15th century. For five of the fragments it is possible to believe that they come from five native, in Ljubljana originating, choral manuscripts, while the source of the remaining ones as yet cannot be more exactly identified.
