In der Überlieferung der Mariendichtung des Priesters Wernher hat der Bildercodex D (um 1230) einen besonderen Rang: er gehört zu den frühesten illuminierten Handschriften in deutscher Sprache und bezeugt die späte Wirkung des Regensburg-Prüfeninger Federzeichnungsstils. Untersucht werden das erkennbar experimentierende Verfahren, mit dem die Bilder in den Text eingebaut werden sowie die in die Miniaturen eingelagerten Spruchbänder und deren Beitrag zur Verbindung von Text und Bild (mit Abdruck der Spruchbandtexte).

Arab painting, preserved mainly in manuscript illustrations of the 12th to 14th centuries, is here treated as an artistic corpus fully deserving of appreciation in its own terms, and not as a mere precursor to Persian painting. The book assembles papers by a distinguished list of scholars that illuminate the variety of material that survives in scientific as well as literary manuscripts. Because of the contexts in which the paintings appear, a major theoretical concern is, precisely, the relationship of painting to text. It rejects earlier scholarly habits of analysing paintings in isolation, and proposes the integration of text and image as a more satisfactory framework within which to elucidate the characteristics and functions of this impressive body of work.

This is a detailed study of the illustrations to Amir Khusrau's Khamsah, in which twenty discourses are followed by a brief parable, and four romances. Amir Khusrau (1253-1325) lived the greater part of adventurous life in Delhi; he composed in Persian, and also in Hindi. From the point of view of manuscript illustration, his most important work is his Khamsah (Quintet'). Khusrau's position as a link between cultures of Persia and India means that the early illustrated copies of the Khamsah have a particular interest. The first extant exemplar is from the Persian area in the late 14th century,
