Summary This reference work is a working tool with which the Byzantine literature researcher can ascertain the identity, authorship and place of issue of a poem as quickly as possible, based on the first verse. In alphabetical order, it offers the first verse of about 20,000 Byzantine poems: profane and religious, edited as well as unprinted, in the high and in the vernacular from the beginning of the 4th to the end of the 15th century. In addition to broad-based compositions and epigrams, verse inscriptions of all kinds, monosticha, notes of copyists, owners and readers of manuscripts, metric works and chapter headings, marginal and concluding remarks as well as metric scholias are also taken into account. Each initial verse is accompanied by all necessary information about the author, subject, location and scope of a poem. The volume is rounded off by a list of cited Byzantine authors.
