English summary: The extensive Corpus of all available legends of Byzantine metrical seals (ca. 4,500) is to be published in three volumes; the first one appeared in 2011, the second is presented here. These miniature epigrams are sometimes aesthetically ambitious and also of philological interest. The commentary makes these seals accessible as an important source for prosopography, social and administrative history, historical geography and art history. The volume contains previously unpublished seals as well as revisions of published material. German description: Das umfassende Corpus aller weltweit greifbaren byzantinischen metrischen Siegellegenden (ca. 4.500) ist auf drei Bande angelegt; der erste erschien 2011, der zweite liegt nun vor. Diese Klein-Epigramme sind teilweise asthetisch anspruchsvoll und daruber hinaus auch philologisch von Interesse. Der Kommentar erschliesst diese Siegel – soweit moglich – auch als wichtige Quelle fur Prosopographie, Sozial- und Verwaltungsgeschichte, historische Geographie und Kunstgeschichte. Dieser Band enthalt bisher unpubliziertes Material sowie Verbesserungsvorschlage fur bereits publizierte Siegel
