For a great ending of the decade, the latest book in the Folklore Fellows' Communications series is out! We are happy to present to you "Verzeichnis der altböhmischen Exempel: Index exemplorum paleobohemicorum" by Karel Dvořák (with Kamil Boldan, and edited by Jan Luffer). It is a handbook providing help of orientation within the multitude of stories that were documented in the Middle Ages in Czech territory. The book is in German language.

"Dvořáks Werk ist ein Handbuch von internationaler Bedeutung und eines der wenigen Verzeichnisse der Exempel der Welt. Es wird vor allem von Fachleuten geschätzt, denen es eine hervorragende Orientierungsmöglichkeit innerhalb der Vielzahl, der im Mittelalter auf tschechischem Gebiet nachgewiesenen Erzählungen, anbietet."
