|Has Description=Since the publication of an edition of the ''Sju vise mästare'' by [[Klemming (1887-1889)|G. E. Klemming, 1887-1889]], the three known Old Swedish manuscripts have been classified into three redactions (A, B, and C). The Old Swedish Version A has - so far - only survived in two manuscripts which date back to the first half of the 15th century. They are known as Redaction A and Redaction B. According to Massimiliano Bampi ([[Bampi (2007)|2007]] and [[Bampi (2014)|2014]]), both have been translated, each from a different Latin translation of the French Version A. The complete text is only extant in Redaction B; Redaction A is missing the beginning of the frame story.

  3. Old Swedish Version A

Of the three surviving Old Swedish manuscripts of the Seven Sages narrative, usually titled Sju vise mästare (The Seven Wise Masters, first edited by G. E. Klemming, 1887-1889), two are part of the larger Version A tradition. (The third Old Swedish manuscript, Redaction C, is part of Version H.)

The two manuscripts - usually referred to in scholarship as Redaction A and Redaction B - both date to the first half of the 15th century. According to Massimiliano Bampi (2007 and 2014), both have as their source texts Latin Version A translations of the French Version A narrative, though Bampi suggests they derive from two distinct Latin manuscripts. The complete text is only extant in Redaction B; Redaction A is missing the beginning of the frame story.
