Abstract

Four fourteenth-century manuscripts and a fifteenth-century one form what Jaroslav Folda has called the expanded cycle of the Eracles illustration. Their most distinctive feature is their depart from the traditional division of the text into books that ultimately derives from William of Tyre’s division of his Chronicon into 22 books. These article studies how the expanded cycle manuscripts have created a new structure for the Eracles and traces the trend towards abandoning the book structure to the end of the thirteenth-century.
