Written in German. First and Second Halves. From the series, "Denkschriften der Kaiserlichen Akademie der Wissenschaften in Wien; Philosophisch-Historische Classe; Band XLIII". The first half is subtitled "Bibliographisch-Kritisches. Mit einer Tafel." The second half is subtitled "Griechisch-Slavisches Glossar; Mit Einem Slavisch-Griechischen Wörterverzeichniss." The modern-day city of Cetinje is the secondary capital of Montenegro, and their printing houses were greatly influential in spreading the Cyrillic type; this book refers to the first Cetinje Church-printing house. The color plate in the first half reproduces a page of a Cyrillic document. Bound-in at the end are the original front wrappers for both halves and a back wrapper from one of them. Minor shelfwear and markings on covers. Large crease from bottom-left corner to top-right corner of the title page of the first half (and the original front wrapper) along with some pages mended at the gutter. Plate is a little foxed with some offset to the facing page.
