Dbachmann:
The '''Murbach hymns''' () are a collection of 27 early medieval [[Christian hymn]]s, given in
a [[Latin]] and an [[Old High German]] version.
They are preserved in a single manuscript of the 9th century, now part of the [[Franciscus Junius (the younger)|Junius]] collection in the [[Bodleian Library]] (MS Junius 25).
The manuscript consists of 193 folia, containing the text of the hymns on foll. 116-129, among various other texts and glosses.
It is the product of an [[Alemannia|Alamannic]] monastery workshop of the 9th century, possibly in [[Reichenau Abbey|Reichenau]]. It was kept in [[Murbach Abbey]], [[Alsace]], until at least the 15th century.
It was acquired by [[Marcus Zuerius van Boxhorn]], who published glosses from the ms. in 1652.
Later in the 17th century it was owned by [[Isaac Vossius]]. [[Franciscus Junius (the younger)|Franciscus Junius]] copied the text of the hymns from the ms. while it was in Vossius' possession. The ms. passed into possession of Junius at an unknown date,
and was acquired as part of Junius' collection by the Bodleian Library after his death in 1677.
The text of the hymns was first printed by [[George Hickes (divine)|George Hickes]] in 1703, and by [[Rasmus Nyerup]] in 1787.
The first philological edition of the text was published by [[Jacob Grimm]] in 1830, based on a copy of the text in Junius' hand. [[Eduard Sievers]] in 1874 published a new edition based on the original manuscript.
A recent critical edition was published by Simbolotti (2009).
