The project’s aim is a scholarly catalogue of the Greek manuscripts of the Saxon State and University Library Dresden (SLUB) and the Goettingen State and University Library (SUB) according to the DFG-guidelines for manuscript cataloguing and including the international cataloguing standards for Greek manuscripts. The project will be conducted at the Centre for Manuscript Studies of the Leipzig University Library. The project includes 90 Greek manuscripts from the Byzantine and post-Byzantine period as well as 90 testimonies to the Western academic reception of the Greek-Byzantine patrimony from the 16th to the 18th century. The manuscripts cover a broad spectrum, which ranges from bible, liturgy, theology, classical and Byzantine literature and Greek poetry to grammar, rhetoric, lexicography, philosophy and historiography; there are also texts on historical natural science, mathematics and alchemy. Among the medieval Byzantine manuscripts there are no less than 35 items that were written before the 15th century. The project has a great potential for a fundamental re-evaluation of the objects to be catalogued. For both collections there exist only printed catalogues from the late 19th century representing a historical state of knowledge which therefore is outdated. Regarding the material-codicological data, both catalogues barely offer any information; they are thus essentially useless for the purposes of present-day scholarly research focused on issues of materiality. Furthermore, the old catalogues do not adequately reflect the current state of the manuscript holdings. In addition to new acquisitions and recent finds, there are also losses dating to the Second World War and changes of the state of preservation which have to be taken into account. An in-depth catalogue according to modern scholarly standards will for the first time allow the manuscript holdings in Dresden and Goettingen to be analyzed in terms of their importance for research into the history of both the transmission of the texts and the history of scholarship. At the same time the project will provide an abundance of codicological and historical data that will permit an adequate understanding of these manuscripts in the specific contexts of their origin and later usage. As a new component in the second project period, an accompanying digitization of the project manuscripts will be added. During the DFG moratorium, the SLUB voluntarily digitized a large part of the project material as an additional service. Now the digitization of the remaining 11 manuscripts of SLUB as well as the whole Graeca collection of SUB will be carried out as part of the project by the two institutions themselves. After finishing the project, the collections of Greek manuscripts of the SLUB and the SUB will be ready for use by scholars, both in terms of their descriptions and their digital presentation, completely and according to modern standards.

该项目的目标是根据DFG手稿编目指南，包括希腊手稿的国际编目标准，对德累斯顿萨克森州立大学图书馆（SLUB）和哥廷根州立大学图书馆（GEOT）的希腊手稿进行学术编目。该项目将在莱比锡大学图书馆的曼尼托巴研究中心进行。该项目包括90份来自拜占庭和后拜占庭时期的希腊手稿，以及16世纪至18世纪西方学术界对希腊-拜占庭遗产的90份证词。这些手稿涵盖范围广泛，从圣经、礼拜仪式、神学、古典和拜占庭文学、希腊诗歌到语法、修辞学、词典编纂、哲学和历史编纂;还有关于历史自然科学、数学和炼金术的文本。在中世纪拜占庭手稿中，有不少于35项是在世纪之前写的。该项目具有从根本上重新评价待编目物体的巨大潜力。对于这两个集合只有印刷目录从19世纪后期的世纪代表了一个历史状态的知识，因此是过时的。关于物质-编纂学数据，两个目录几乎没有提供任何信息;因此，它们对于当今侧重于物质性问题的学术研究基本上毫无用处。此外，旧目录没有充分反映手稿的现状。除了新的收购和最近的发现之外，还必须考虑到第二次世界大战以来的损失和保存状况的变化。根据现代学术标准进行的深入目录将首次允许对德累斯顿和哥廷根的手稿进行分析，以了解它们对文本传播史和学术史研究的重要性。与此同时，该项目将提供丰富的编纂学和历史数据，使人们能够在其起源和后来使用的特定背景下充分了解这些手稿。作为第二个项目期间的一个新组成部分，将增加项目手稿的数字化。在DFG暂停期间，SLUB自愿将大部分项目材料数字化，作为一项附加服务。现在，SLUB剩余的11份手稿的数字化以及整个Graeca收集的手稿将由两个机构自己进行，作为项目的一部分。 在完成该项目后，SLUB和The Saub的希腊手稿集将准备好供学者使用，无论是在描述还是数字呈现方面，都完全符合现代标准。
