Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The inscriptional tradition of the city of Meissen, which this two-part volume presents in an annotated edition, extends from the 13th century to 1650, focussing on the episcopal church in the 13th/14th century, the princely residence in the 15th/16th century and the town centre in the 16th/17th century. The collection is dominated by almost 350 tombs. A small number of vasa sacra bear witness to donations to churches. In addition, building inscriptions reflect the phases of intensive building activity and provide a diverse insight into the lives of nobles, cathedral clergy and Meissen citizens like no other source genre.
