Medieval History
The Munich copy of the Gutenberg Bible has been digitized recently
and is now accessible via our website and online incunable catalogue:
here
The Munich Gutenberg Bible is one of only two copies which contain
the table of rubrics, a printed list of headlines which served as a
guide to the rubricator. The Bible is printed on paper and contains
some illumination and manuscript annotation, the latter can be
ascribed to a Benedictine monk from Tegernsee. In 1803, the Bible was
transferred to Munich from the Benedictine monastery of Andechs.
The website includes links to our cooperation partner, the Humanities
Media Interface Project of Keio University Tokyo who carried out the
digitization, and to an article (in German) about the project.
