Selected
preserved manuscripts
As I see it, your author believes that the modern writer miffed his evaluation of the available manuscripts which have been preserved and misinterpreted the textual history (so his work needs checking and revision).

my take
Assessment of the chronicled material's legacy and interpretation of the manuscript's story/history is to some extent in need of verification and revision.
Not sure as to Textgeschichte: is it a story told, or the fate of the manuscript throughout the ages
