Postfatory

These prefatory and postfatory pages bristle with insights, but they unfortunately tend to be noisy and vituperative. At moments they also sound hasty and a bit "simplistes".

The text ofthe Gospels is in Rumanian, but the rubrics, and the lectionaries and other postfatory material are in Serbian Church Slavonic (with much morphological uncertainty in the colophon) showing Bulgarian influence.

Closely connected to the epigrammatic form of entries in alba are poems that serve as prefatory or postfatory material of early modern prints. Harm-Jan van Dam dedicates his article to this kind of liminary poetry.
