Anotace

Three institutions possess medieval manuscript fragments in Kremnica (State archives in Kremnica, Archives of the Mint and the Library of a Protestant Parish). Several fragments from Kremnica are also in the Slovak National Archives because a collection of 25 manuscripts from the Kremnica Catholic Parish is deposited there. They are a unique set of sources for several reasons. First, the amount of preserved material is incomparable to other Slovak cities. The majority of fragments serve as bookbindings of Kremnica municipal books from the 16th to the 17th century. Second, many of them have a common origin. A lot of fragments document folios from the same manuscript. There are more than 30 groups of such pieces. Some groups are composed only from two fragments, but the largest contains 45 folios. Third, Czech influence is significant. The two largest groups of fragments from two missals are clearly from Czech lands. Czech notation is the most used. The second is a Messine-gothic notation. The order is usually reversed in Slovak institutions. Esztergom notation is preserved only in five fragments. The crucial task for future research will be to differentiate locally used fragments from imported ones.
