"The present edition is based on three manuscripts and the edition of 1481. Two of these manuscripts are found in the Bibliothèque Nationale in Paris, the third in the Staats-Bibliothek in Munich. The basic manuscript is B. N. Lat. 16390, the oldest, and evidently the most correct manuscript ... Much younger is B.N. Lat. 16606 ... The third manuscript used is Cod. Monac. Lat. 469 ... The treatise is commonly known as De eruditione puerorum regalium; it was printed with this title among the Opuscula of Vincent in 1481 by Johannes von Amerbach in Basel."--Introd., p. xxviii-xxix.
