CHAPTER 2: SOURCES AND RECONSTRUCTION<br />

<strong>The</strong> present chapter falls into four parts. <strong>The</strong> first (§2.1) consists <strong>of</strong> a description <strong>of</strong><br />

the <strong>sources</strong> consulted in preparing the present reconstruction <strong>of</strong> the 1904 score <strong>of</strong><br />

Jenůfa. This is followed by a consideration <strong>of</strong> how those <strong>sources</strong> can be used to<br />

identify (§2.2) and reconstruct (§2.3) the 1904 version <strong>of</strong> the opera. <strong>The</strong> final<br />

section (§2.4) outlines the principles and conventions <strong>of</strong> the reconstruction itself as<br />

presented in VOLUMES II/1, II/2 and II/3.<br />

2.1 Sources<br />

A full list <strong>of</strong> the various manuscript and printed <strong>sources</strong> for Jenůfa is given in JaWo. 1<br />

<strong>The</strong> following is a more selective list <strong>of</strong> those <strong>sources</strong> directly pertinent to the 1904<br />

version <strong>of</strong> the opera or consulted during its reconstruction, given in what appears to be<br />

their chronological order. Those represented by an abbreviation in bold type indicate<br />

the principal <strong>sources</strong> for the present reconstruction.<br />

<strong>The</strong> location <strong>of</strong> <strong>sources</strong> is indicated by the following abbreviations:<br />

BmJA Janáčkův archiv Oddělení dějin hudby Moravského zemského muzea, Brno<br />
