Bound in contemporary red half morocco over orange boards. Many edges uncut. Edition of the work by Sheyk-Zada (Chék Zadé). The manuscript, which is now lost, was prepared apparently in the early 17th century, but was based on much earlier stories, similar in style and function to those found in the 1001 Nights. Renouard’s hand-written notes on the rarity of the work are on the first blank leaf. Belletête’s extremely rare, seemingly unfinished translation into French ends abruptly at p. 48; it was printed from a draft found among his papers.

9. GERMAN [AB 542-600]

Revised by Ralf-Henning Steinmetz

In German are dominant the reworkings of the Latin Historia septem sapientum (Latin H: AB 666-680 and below, 676-1915ff.). There are two verse redactions: Hans von Bühel’s Diocletianus (1412) and an anonymous verse version; a theatrical version; and eight prose redactions whose Vulgate version was printed sixty times. From Latin H are derived as well two new versions with divergent embedded stories: the Aventewr von Diocleciano and the Hystorij von Diocleciano. The only version not derived from Latin H is the German translation of the Latin Libellus muliebri nequitia plenus (first half of the 15th century).

See Gotzkowsky I:1. The only known copies, which were being held in the State Libraries of Bavaria and Prussia, were lost during the second World War (cf. Gotzkowsky I:281). Frieder Schanze suspects (p. 321) that this edition, which had heretofore been thought by everyone to be the earliest printing of the Sieben weisen Meister, is identical with 554, “as a comparison of the quotations makes clear.” Since these quotations give only the beginning of the framing tale and the explicit, Schanze’s suspicion could be verified by means of the quotations reproduced by Schmitz.
