The present volume is the second in a recently launched series intended to contain short contributions in which Old Swedish texts are published and/or commented on. The first essay, by Lennart Moberg, Emeritus Professor of Scandinavian Languages, deals with a text in 'Bridgettine Norwegian' to be found in Cod. Skokloster 5 at the Swedish National Archives. This text is clearly based on notes in St Bridget's own hand and, despite the Norwegian elements in it, offers a good insight into her own use of language. In the second essay, by the late Dr Hans H. Range, three previously unpublished Old Swedish homilies are published and commented on: one on Andrew, one on Nicholas and one on the Virgin Mary, all of them from Cod. C 181 at Uppsala University Library. In the author's view, the texts can be dated to 1475-1500 and the manuscript was probably produced at Vadstena Abbey. The third essay, by Professor Per-Axel Wiktorsson, provides examples of texts found on medieval parchment covers. Some of them are Latin texts with Old Swedish elements (personal and place-names), while the others are written purely in Old Swedish, including a fragment of the fourth book of St Bridget's revelations. Keywords: philology, Old Swedish, watermarks, homilies, legends, text fragments on parchment covers, St Bridget, Vadstena Abbey. Språk i boken: svenska

Roughly half of the pages of this volume constitute critical editions of two late medieval account books, kept for Falke Gregersson (Lillie) and his widow Britta Hansdotter (Tott), C 34 and C 35 respectively, in the National Record Office (Riksarkivet) , Stockholm. This work can be seen as a follow-up of the author's editions ofGregers Matsson's account books (Gregers Matssons räkenskaper, 1996), and Gregers Matsson's food and fodder book for Stegeborg 1487-1492 (Gregers Matssons kostbok för Stegeborg 1487-1492, 1999), which contain the author's editions of the hitherto unpublished written remains ofGregers Matsson Lillie, the father of Folke Gregersson. (Cf the Abstract of Alvered 1996, and Alvered 1999 p. 9 2nd paragraph. The account books of Gregers' son-in-law Me Jonsson Svarte Skaning, C 25-27 in the National Record Office, still remain unpublished. Like C 35, they pertain to the estate of Åkerö in Södermanland.) The philological edition is accompanied by a commentary and registers of individuals, places, and words. These registers should enhance the usefulness of the edition, not least for other disciplines, perhaps history in particular. The commentary takes up some linguistic features of those of the 16 different hands which have written more than just a few lines. Other subjects of commentaries include the physical appearance of the manuscript; scribes and their handwriting; and words of special semantic interest (included in the word registers). Concerning the genre of medieval accounting as well as measures, weights, and coinage, reference is mainly made to the previous editions mentioned above. The edition is illustrated with an appendix of 10 photographs showing samples of the different hands and the covers of the volumes. Keywords: philology, transcription, analysis of handwriting, Old Swedish, medieval accounts, Lindö, Åkerö. Språk i boken: svenska

The present volume comprises two essays containing text editions and short commentaries. The first deals with a copy of part a revelation by St Birgitta (Liber IV I 02) found in Copenhagen, the Royal Library, GkS 1154 2°. The text concerns the way a legal case should be heard and judged. Despite appearing in a Norwegian manuscript, the text is written in Old Swedish. The second essay contains an edition of three sermons found in Vienna, the Austrian National Library, Cod. Vind. 13013. They have been registered in the library's catalogue as being in Swedish, and this essay discusses whether this is in fact the case. The sermons' structure and content are also outlined. Keywords: philology, Old Swedish, Old Danish, Old Norwegian, law texts, St Birgitta, sermons, language mixture.

Hedda Gunneng & Börje Westlund discuss two autographic tracts (A and B) by Holy Bridget of Vadstena, concerning language and style. The tracts show how Bridget worked stylistically when she clad her revelations linguistically. The marked stylistic difference between the two tracts is attributable to the differing content and import of revelations. Margit J. Smith describes the Tallinn manuscript of the City Rights of King Magnus Eriksson, also referred to as the Vadstena Codex or Tallinn Codex, possibly written for the city of Åbo. The manuscript dates from the first half of the 15th century and is bound in the format of a girdle book, with brass bosses and two clasps. The binding was repaired in Moscow in the 1970s and is in good condition. Massimiliano Bampi maintains the the inclusion of Konung Alexander into an aristocratic environment in many respects has influenced the representation of Alexander’s deeds. However Alexander represents a powerful alternative to the heroes of chivalic adventure. Fulvio Ferrari writes, concerning Dikten om kung Albrekt, that its manuscripts were written at the Vadstena monastery during the 1420’s, commissioned by a member of the Swedish oligarchy. The text appears to have been written in the entourage of Bo Jonsson. The political situation during the 1420’s was the same as in Bo Jonsson’s time, when the aristocracy opposed the crown. Per-Axel Wiktorsson discusses a list of signs from the Vadstena monastery, discovered among MSS C 31 and C 74 held at Uppsala University Library, both from the 14th century. The list in C 31 is a pre-stage to that in C 74. The author has attemped to construct an older version of the list than the one in C 31. Keywords: Holy Bridget, Vadstena monastery, autographs, language and style, City Rights, ‘bag- binding’, Konung Alexander, courtly ethics, Dikten om kung Albrekt, aristocracy, the Crown, sign lists, older version.
