The Vorau 'Moses' and 'Balaam' : A Study of Their Relationship to Exegetical Tradition

Abstract

A study of the Vorauer Bücher Moses, a collection of vernacular poems in Early High Middle German from the twelfth-century MS 276. The text, named for the Styrian monastery of Vorau where MS 276 was found, was probably composed a little earlier, and Wells's study places it the context of a historical exegetical tradition. This book, originally published in 1970 and later given the ISBN 978-0-900547-04-1, was made Open Access in 2024 as part of the MHRA Revivals programme.
