The manuscripts provoke several questions: Were the original copies of Meshal Hakadmoni, in Spain, illustrated? If not, how come that all the known 15th century Ashkenazi copies are illustrated? And more generally, what caused the renewed interest in the book of fables at such a geographic and time distance? What was the relation between the production of these copies, particularly the illustrations, to the surrounding German culture? The study by Simona Gronemann attempts to answer these and other questions. It is the first time that a hypothesis is being made as to a possible Ashkenazi prototype manuscript and as to further copies that might have existed in Germany and in northern Italy. All in all it provides an exciting journey through 15th century art of book illumination in central Europe, as affecting a Hebrew secular book.
