Manuscript Summary:
Manuscript Summary
The impulse for writing the original model of this text, Vadian’s “Kleinere Chronik der Äbte” (1544-46) (VadSlg Ms. 44), came from Heinrich Bullinger and Johannes Stumpf; they wanted to make use of Vadian’s knowledge of the history of St. Gall for the Eidgenössische Chronik (1547/48) that appeared under Stumpf’s name. The chronicle consists of three parts: the first part is about Saint Gall; the second part is a history of the monastery and of the city of St. Gall; the third part gives a historical-topographical description of the city of St. Gall and of Lake Constance. Wolfgang Fechter produced two copies thereof in 1549. The illustrations are by Caspar Hagenbuch. (gug)
