Codex germanicus monacensis 9220
The Codex germanicus monacensis 9220 (Cgm 9220) is an anthology of the Bavarian State Library in Munich from around 1600.
history
It is possible that the anthology of manuscripts and prints acquired was initially in the possession of the Nothaft aristocratic family. At the beginning of the 18th century he was in the canons of St. Andrä an der Traisen. Raimund Duellius found it there and issued the letter of honor based on this template for the first time in 1725. After the Abbey of St. Andrä was abolished in 1783, the volume was transferred to the Herzogenburg Monastery. Signed as Hs. 219, it survived the hardship of the interwar period. The piece must have been sold abroad in 1964 or earlier, as it was then on the Zurich art market. In 1965 it became manuscript XV 10 of the art collector couple Irene and Peter Ludwig ( Aachen ). At the expense of the city of CologneElaborately cataloged, the Ludwigs manuscript holdings were to find permanent home in Cologne, but Cologne and the Ludwigs fell out, and the Getty Museum in Malibu bought the volume with the other manuscripts. In 1997, the museum separated from part of the Ludwig holdings and handed them over to the well-known manuscript dealer Jörn Günther, who first offered the anthology to the Berlin State Library and then to the Bavarian State Library, which provided it with the help of the Kulturstiftung der Länder and the Bayerische Landesstiftung (to 32 % Co-owner) in the same year at an unnamed presumably high price.
The decisive factor was the importance of the letter of honor for the German and Bavarian literary history of the 15th century. The Cgm 9220 was the only tradition of this writing from Jakob Püterich von Reichertshausen until Klaus Graf found the presumed submission of this manuscript in the so-called Trenbach Chronicle (1590) of the Lower Austrian State Archives in 2015.
In November 2015, a digitized version of the manuscript was put on the Internet.
