Кн. 48 (2013), стр. 129–156. | THE LOCAL CULTS OF THE WOMEN SAINTS IN MEDIEVAL BULGARIA: TWO COMPARATIVE APPROACHES ADELINA ANGUSHEVA-TIHANOV (MANCHESTER) (Abstract) The article offers a comparative typology of the cults of local women saints in Bulgaria, Serbia and Russia during the Middle Ages. Further, it analyzes the transformations of traditional Marian imagery applied in hagiographic presentations of these saints (e.g. the employment of the Virgin’s Dormition narrative in the vita of St Helene of Anjou by Archbishop Danilo II; the Marian symbols in the vita of St Parasceve/Petka by Patriarch Euthymios). The article examines the use of the theological trope of Christ’s Bride in South Slavic hagiography and its modifications in St Olga’s Vita from Stepennaia kniga in order to establish the changes in perception of these cults articulated through hagiographical convention. The comparison showed that, with the exception of the commemoration of Kievan Princess Olga, the cults of the local women saints in the Orthodox Slavic countries were relatively late formations, established from the thirteenth century onwards. In medieval Serbia the women rulers were the only social group from which local women saints emerged, unlike Bulgaria where the only type of locally celebrated female sainthood was the anchoretic one. In this respect medieval Russia presented a greater variety (there were holy princesses, nuns, and even town anchoress, and martyrs). Most of these cults in Serbia and Russia appeared in the field of direct interaction between royal and monastic milieu, and the real participation of the saint in both contexts, her dual identity was almost an indispensible precondition for her sainthood. In a sense Bulgarian cults were also a result of the efforts of the rulers and clergy, but they had different dynamics in which strict ascetic holiness was additionally used by the institutions of power. Unlike the Russian and Serbian cults, Bulgarian were not based on ethno-localism, they were imported from outside and domesticated, but either because these ascetic cults articulated better the Hesychast ideology that dominated the epoch, or because the cults were actively developed in Bulgarian capital, they were the only one to cross the state boundaries and become Pan-Orthodox heavenly protectors. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=6917 | |

It proposes a new hypothesis that the church was built during the time of Gregory Pakourianos or shortly after his death in 1086 in order to “serve” the katholikon, i.e. to support the daily services performed at the main monastery church. The Church of the Holy Archangels was not impressive, had no commemorative function, and was not dedicated by a famous donor to an “exceptional” goal. It belongs to the type of “auxiliary” churches erected in front of monastery katholikons for the explicit purpose of supplementing their daily services. The Church of the Holy Archangels was not originally a two-story building; its current design is the cumulative result of constructions at various times. It was built on a pre-existing colonnade linking the monastery katholikon with the western portico – possibly the site of the monastery’s oldest refectory. In this context, the fresco of Tsar Ivan Alexander, positioned on the eastern part of the northwest pillar beneath the church is not specifically related to this church, but represents more broadly the Tsar’s sponsorship of the whole monastery. In fact, the image was initially located on one of the pillars of the western monastery portico, at the end of the colonnade beneath the Holy Archangels Church, which colonnade had a representative role and was probably a passage – the main way to access the katholikon from west. The portrait of the Nemanjićes on the western gate of Studenica Monastery presents another case of positioning a donor of such rank near a monastery entrance. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=476770 |

Aleksander Naumow (Abstract) Based on extant texts, this article analyzes the attitudes of the pontiffs of Rome toward the introduction of the Slavonic language into Christian worship, beginning with the blessing of the liturgical books that SS Cyril and Methodius brought to Rome. The decision of Adrian II and John VIII to allow the use of the new barbarian language was gradually cancelled out or reduced to a marginal phenomenon (Dalmacia, Prague, Olesnitsa, Cracow). After the Union of Brest (1596), however, it became a tool of Catholic proselytism with respect to the Orthodox Slavs. According to the ideology of Paposlavism, this blessing sanctified Slavonic writing and culture and introduced Bulgaria and Kievan Rus’ into the sphere of Western Christianity, a gesture not unlike the anointing of the newly baptized in the Eastern rite. Significantly, in this view, submission to the Pope was the only criterion for belonging to the Church and the right faith. In the East, by contrast, the Slavonic alphabet and writing were considered a gift from God that, by the will of the Emperor and the Synod, found its application in missionary work. The Papal blessing did not concern the essence of the gift of the Word, but was only an administrative decision of the ruling hierarch, which affected only local practice. The discussion about the place and role of SS Cyril and Methodius in the history of cultural, ecclesiastic and political relations between Slavs and Greeks, Slavs and “Romans,” as well as among the different Slavic peoples, has not lost its relevance today, as it provides scholars with a wide range of more or less familiar arguments and facts. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=718605 | |

In most of cases saint’s parents are mentioned, referring to their social status and sometimes their belonging to an ethnic group. In Slavic tradition the relation with the mother is more important than the relation with the father; stepmothers are considered negatively. The relations of the saint with the brothers and sisters or with the children are rarely mentioned. We sometimes find references to a nuptial tie, including references to an unconsummated marriage. If we consider the scarcity of sources about social life in the medieval times in the Balkans, the analysis of hagiographies from this point of view can provide a lot of interesting and valuable data. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=6932 | |

A modern service dedicated to the rediscovery of St Cyril’s relics and their translation to „San Clemente“ on 17th November 1963 (introduced in the liturgical practice of Bulgarian Catholics in 1980) has been analysed and published for the first time. | http://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=211020 | |

The emphasis is put on their images which are known from the twelfth-century wall paintings and from the fifteenth-century icons. The scenes of their Vita are rarely represented. They can be seen on frescoes from the 14th up to 19th centuries, and on icons from the 17th to 19th centuries (of which only two examples are known). In contrast, on Russian icons these scenes are often depicted which points at the use of different type of sources. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=6925 |

Кн. 48 (2013), стр. 79–113. | THE CULT OF ST CLEMENT OF OHRID BETWEEN THE TENTH AND THE FOURTEENTH CENTURY ALEKSEI PENTKOVSKII (MOSCOW) (Abstract) Тhe complex study of the cult of St Clement of Ohrid from the time of its initial formation to its evolution up to the fifteenth century, when it achieved a stable structure, shows that the worship of St. Clement began soon after his death and his burial in the grounds of Ohrid monastery which the saint himself had established. The development of cult of St Clement is inextricably linked to religious and political activities of the Archbishopric of Ohrid, and its religious leaders, namely the archbishops, Theophylaktos of Bulgaria, John Komnenos , Demetrios Khomatianos, Konstantinos Каvasilas and Gregory. The hagiographic and hymnological works created by them became an organic part of the Ohrid literary repertoire belonging to the period between the tenth and fourteenth centuries. The relics St Clement were found in the time of Archbishop Demetrios Khomatianos, and the saint became the heavenly protector of Ohrid and the entire Ohrid Archbishopric. Over the centuries the tradition of the cult of St Clement as a miracle worker and educator of Slavs existed in both Slavic, and Greek versions. The focal point of his cult in Ohrid was the monastery, founded by the saint on a spot chosen by him to be also his resting place – a place that would be the symbol of Slavic education for centuries to come. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=6937 |

TRANSFORMATIONS OF THE GIANT COSMIC BIRD MYTH ANA STOYKOVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) The paper discusses the archaic mythological motif of giant cosmic birds that invoke the sun to rise, escort it on its heavenly way, or protect the earth from solar radiation. Tracing variants of this motif in the literary tradition (Slavonic Book of Enoch, Apocalypse of Baruch, Physiologus, etc.) points to the conclusion that it occurs in texts that originated in the form familiar to us in Greek, during the Hellenistic and Roman periods, most probably in Alexandria. It appears that sun-birds absorbed ancient ideas that passed from Sumer and Akkad through Babylon into the Hebrew apocalyptic tradition and were later combined with Greco-Roman elements. The names for the bird in the texts under anaylsis – phoenix, gryphon, halkydra – are the result of interpratatio graeca; they appear in order to “translate” the image of the cosmic bird from one culture into another. In the end, the motif, in a Christianized form, penetrated into the Byzantine tradition and, from there, into Old Slavic writing, enjoying a sustained interest through the Late Middle Ages. This case of millennial continuity points to the transplantation of an ancient mythological motif from Mesopotamia to various monotheistic cultures and its eventual adaptation into the Christian Byzantino-Slavic cultural sphere. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=340874 | |

GEORGE IN THE MIDDLE EASTERN ISLAMIC TRADITION ANA STOYKOVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) The cult of St. George is one of the few Christian cults accepted by Muslims who call him Jirjis and honour him as a healer and helper in trouble. In Palestine, the cult of the martyr was shared between the two big religions during their long coexistence. The oldest anonymous Passio of St. George penetrated into Arabic as well as into Turkish medieval literature. Despite its adaptation and undergone modifications, this text has preserved many of its most archaic features known from Byzantine literature, but at the same time presents some specificities common only to the South Slavic manuscript tradition. The article traces back the peculiarities of the development of the cult of St George, the history, and the fate of this archaic hagiographical work in the Islamic world. Some aspects of the cult, which functions in mixed confessional environment, show certain specifics, but also allow for comparisons with the folk tradition of his veneration on the Balkans and Eastern Europe. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=6931 | |

TURILOV (MOSCOW) (Abstract) The article deals with the attribution of ordinary Bulgarian manuscripts (predominantly fragments) of the first half until mid fourteenth century, written in the capital city of the Second Bulgarian State Tǎrnovo and on Mt. Athos. They serve as a background sui generis for the famous codices of the period of John Alexander (1331–1371). 1. The author identifies the scribe of the Service Menaeum fragment NBKM No 114 with the second (anonymous) scribe of the Sofia “Pesnivets” (Psalter) of 1337. 2. The fragments of another parchment Service Menaum (Athos, Zographou, No Slav. 285 and 286) are written in a variant of Mitrophan’s hand by which Pogodin’s Prologue of 1339 was written. 3. The cursive of the paper Gospel fragment from Kiev (Library of the Ukrainian Academy of Sciences, f. 301, No 31, fol. 1) coincides with that of the main (anonymous) scribe of the Moscow copy of the Manasses Chronicle of 1345. 4. The handwriting of the parchment Octoechos fragment (Athos, Zographou, No Slav. 284) is identical with that of the first scribe of the Synoptic Paterikon (ibidem, No Slav. 83). 5. It can be surmised that Hieromonk Lavrentij, who copied the famous Miscellany for Tsar John Alexander in 1348, was also the scribe of the Lenten Triodion of the 1350s (Athos, Chilandariou, No Slav. 259). | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=123533 | |

TURILOV (MOSCOW) (Abstract) The article analyzes the tradition which preserved the corpus of the Menaion himnographic texts created by the disciples of Cyril and Methodios and attempts to correlate medieval Russian and Bulgarian literature. The author’s investigations lengthen the list of the already known copies of Old-Bulgarian himnographic works. The conclusion is that in medieval Russian transcripts of original Slavic himnographic works created in the ninth and tenth centuries one can find the peculiarities of the eastern Bulgarian himnography from the middle of the tenth century and, more precisely, from the period before the Byzantine conquest of Bulgaria. The preserved South-Slavic copies dating from the twelfth to fifteenth century, however, reflect the himnographic repertoire created in Ohrid in the beginning of the eleventh century. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=45505 | |

TURILOV (MOSCOW) (Abstract) In connection with his work on the Inventory of the Slavic manuscript from the fourteenth century which are now stored in museums and libraries in the former Soviet Union countries the author identifies a number of manuscripts by their scribes or scriptoria. Analysing the way of writing of the letters, the used graphemae, the orthographic norms, and the decoration of some individual codices, the author increases the number of the books known to be written by the Tarnovo men of letters hyeromonk Laurentios, priest Philip and his collaborator. These observations allow us to draw some conclusions about their literary production created duting 1330s and 1340s, about ththeir literary production created duting 1330s and 1340s, about the character of the texts copied in Tarnovo scriptoria and about the history of the way of writing typical of the epoch (the so-called Alexandrian or „priest Gerasimos’s“ script). | http://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=211004 |

The collection of texts examined here is a typical example of the later miscellanies of mixed content, which are distinguished by the presence of numerous apocryphal and non-canonical works. Moreover, the inclusion of a number of apotropaic texts in the miscellany allows us to assume that its transcribers – most likely members of a relatively wealthy Vidin family of merchants and priests – had access to older amulet collections, which in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries were frequently used in teaching children to read and write. The miscellany is also remarkable in that it reflects the personal tastes and pragmatic needs of its owners, who were not only obsessed with keeping evil forces at bay but also took pains to equip themselves with accurate calendar information on church festivals and fasts throughout the year, a Latin abecedary, and even a short Bulgarian-Hungarian dictionary whose presence in the manuscript hints at distant (most likely commercial) travels. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=1198324 | |

CYRIL AND METHODIUS FROM THE STRANDZHA MOUNTAINS (SECOND HALF OF THE 19TH – EARLY 20TH CENTURY) Angel Nikolov (Abstract) During the Bulgarian struggles for emancipation from the Patriarchate of Constantinople in the middle of the 19th century, the cult of the apostles SS. Cyril and Methodius spread widely across the northern slopes of the Strandzha Mountain, where the population was almost entirely Bulgarian. This circumstance explains why icons of the two saints had already appeared in the region around Sredets and Malko Turnovo before the War of Independence (1877-78). Those icons were the work of the Greek iconographer from Sozopol, Sokrates Georgiou, who skillfully adapted his style to the patriotic sentiments of the local Bulgarian church communities. In the region of Malko Turnovo, which remained under Turkish control until 1912, a similar strategy was adopted by another Greek iconographer, the less gifted Stavros from Lozengrad. On the northern side of the Bulgarian-Turkish border, in the region of Sredets and the villages around Sozopol and Primorsko, several iconographers from Triavna—Dimitur Minev and his son Khriso among them—worked tirelessly during the first decades after 1878, decorating local churches with icons of the saints painted in the best tradition of the Triavna School. In some Strandzha villages, icons of Cyril and Methodius began to be placed on the Bishop’s throne, as a sign of special respect toward the saints. This curious practice, evident across the Bulgarian territory, was an innovation that stemmed from a characteristic conviction of the time: that the legacy of the two brothers constituted the spiritual and cultural foundation for the autocephaly of the Bulgarian Church, restored on May 11, 1872. | http://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=809464 | |

Кн. 61-62 (2020), стр. 76-138. | THE MEDIEVAL SLAVONIC TEXT OF ACTA THOMAE MINORA Andrej Bojadžiev (Abstract) This article offers an edition and a preliminary study of the Slavonic text of Acta Thomae Minora (BHG 1833). As the study reveals, both the Greek and Slavonic versions of the text belong to the so-called open textual traditions. For that reason, we publish the Greek and the Slavonic texts in a parallel edition. The Slavonic witnesses are closer to the Greek copies C and N than to copy M. From the two Slavonic copies, T follows the Greek tradition more closely. The witness Und. 543 represents a compilation that is distinct from all other copies and should be studied and edited separately. The two Slavonic witnesses published here, T and Л, represent two independent translations from Greek. They originated, in all probability, during the Old Bulgarian period, in the tenth or eleventh century. Later, in the thirteenth or fourteenth century, both versions were reedited, introducing new linguistic features. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=913133 | |

GEORGE BY GREGORY TSAMBLAK Andrej Boyadzhiev (Abstract) The article offers an edition of the First Encomium on St. George by Gregory Tsamblak. It introduces 18 hitherto unpublished witnesses of the text from the 15th through 18th century and incorporates the previous edition from the Great Menologion of Metropolitan Makarius. The Encomium is examined together with texts that are linked to it in the manuscript tradition. Among them, special attention is paid to the Lives and Miracles of St. George, and to sermons and hagiographic texts of Slavonic origin. The author offers a classification of the witnesses according to their textological characteristics. A separate part of the publication deals specifically with some of the rhetorical figures typical for Tsamblak’s style and his preferred strategies for textual organization. The remarks on language shed light on some grammatical and lexicological features of the text. The author concludes that this exemplary work epitomizes the tradition of the Turnovo school from the 14th century. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=718630 | |

The analysis concerns all the fragments but is mostly concentrated on the two of them kept in SS. Cyril and Methodius National Library, nos. 499 and 500 which have been examined de visu. The characteristics of the decoration, orthography, and text show interplay of more archaic and more innovative features, for instance there are both archaic lexical readings and Preslavisms. The Apostolos is closer to the Slepche Apostolos and Matica Srpska Apostolos. The Manuil Apostolos is likely to have been written in an eastern (or northeastern) Bulgarian scriptorium in the second half of the thirteenth century. | http://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=211024 | |

EDITION OF THE HOMILIARY VERSION Aneta Dimitrova Keywords: textual criticism; Old Church Slavonic translations from Greek; edition; John Chrysostom; Ephrem the Syrian; homiliary Abstract: The homily In vanam vitam (CPG 4031 / 4622) was very popular both in the Greek and Slavonic traditions. At least three Greek versions (α, β, γ) are known; they are defined by several significant variant readings and numerous smaller variations. The Slavonic versions (V1, V2, V3, V4) are very diverse as well. Some differences between them correspond to the different Greek versions, other deviations and additions in the text have no parallel in Greek, and yet other passages are identical in most of the versions. The textological analysis shows that the homily was translated into Old Church Slavonic twice, and that one of the translations went through at least three redactions based on different Greek versions as well as through multiple secondary revisions. The Slavonic translations and revised versions became part of several types of manuscripts (e.g., the Zlatostruy collection and some homiliaries) probably as early as the tenth century. The article systematizes the main differences between the versions, groups the known Slavonic copies according to their beginnings and major distinctive features, and discusses the similarities and differences between them in comparison to their Greek sources. At the end, it offers an edition of the homiliary version of the text with an extensive critical apparatus with the variant readings of the manuscripts from the same textual group. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=1198311 | |

One of the main objectives of the article is to follow the scholarly debate between Karl Krumbacher (1856–1909) and Ludwig Radermacher (1867–1952) on the methodology of editing Byzantine texts. From Krumbacher’s criticism and Radermacher’s response one can single out the main issues in dealing with Byzantine manuscripts. And since Krumbacher – the founder of modern Byzantine studies – was a prolific and diligent reviewer, his critical reviews and other writings reveal his stand on this topic. This is the other, more general purpose of the paper – to collect and summarize Krumbacher’s editorial principles. They set a standard that is still in use in medieval studies today. At the same time, even 120 years later, new manuals on editing medieval texts keep emerging, addressing practical as well as theoretical problems. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=588443 | |

ANTONY THE GREAT ANETA DIMITROVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) The Slavonic manuscript No 43 from the Museum of the Serbian Orthodox Church (14th c.) contains a unique copy of the Life of St. Antony by Athanasius of Alexandria (BHG 140). It presents a rendition that differs from the other two known translations: the one made in 10th century Preslav and the translation originating from fourteenth-century Tărnovo. The rendition in question dates back to the 13th-14th c. and it is known as “the third” translation in spite of the fact that it probably precedes the Middle Bulgarian one from Tărnovo. In this article I discuss some linguistic features of this text in comparison to the other two in order to more accurately assess the principles of translation, and to establish its date. The research is focused on some of the ways of rendering the Greek definite article, substantival and declarative infinitives, and the participles. The influence of the vernacular and the aspiration for readability and grammaticality are the features the first and the “third” translations have in common (e.g. postposition of the attributive phrase, or use of predicative participles with a conjunction). The so-called “third translation” shares with the second one several characteristics, typical for the Middle Bulgarian period: a very close adherence to the Greek original, use of inflexible and artificial means of expression, etc. (e.g. indeclinable иже, declarative infinitive, constructions such as accusativus cum infinitivo). The Life of St. Antony in MSPC 43 has probably come into existence in response to the need for a new translation. It is a good, readable translation, but it remained isolated after a new “official” translation appeared in the 14th c. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=103943 | |

Кн. 45–46 (2012), стр. 165–177. | AUTHOR’S STYLE AND TRANSLATOR’S STYLE IN THE OLD CHURCH SLAVONIC HAGIOGRAPHY ANETA DIMITROVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) As Old Church Slavonic (OCS) translations of Byzantine prose are called in question, some of the most debated issues concern the principles of translation. This article draws attention to the importance of analyzing the linguistic features of the original as well. Byzantine Greek and OCS are structurally similar. Syntactic synonymy results in both author and translator having to choose between several options. A close study of their preferences makes it possible to differentiate between the style of the original and that of the translation. On the other hand, the two languages differ in various ways. By the 9th century there is already a big difference between spoken and literary Greek so that the authors’ styles depend on their education and purposes, on the genre or the literary trends of the time. OCS, by comparison, is a young literary language, based on the vernacular and occasionally exposed to Greek influence. There are also many linguistic differences between them. In each case of linguistic asymmetry the translator has to pick out between possible solutions and it is on these choices that we can draw conclusions about the style and the methods of translation. The article gives several examples of how one can draw a conclusion about the author’s or the translator’s style based on linguistic data. The examples are from three Byzantine Vitae (4th–10th c.) translated into OCS during 10th–11th c. and they deal mainly with the use of infinitives and the Greek definite article. At the end some syntactical criteria are derived for analyzing both original and translation. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=196300 | |

Кн. 52 (2015), стр. 61–84. | THE EPISTLE TO NICHOLAS BY MARK THE ASCETIC (CPG 6094) IN AN OLD BULGARIAN TRANSLATION ANISSAVA MILTENOVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) St. Mark the Ascetic (4th century) is one of the most famous Egyptian anchorites. His writings are often included in monastic collections in both the Byzantine and Slavic traditions. The Epistle to Nicholas is particularly popular because it explicates the rules for an ascetic life. The earliest Old Church Slavonic translation dates from the 10th century and is preserved in a miscellany from the Hilandar monastery No. 382 from the 13th–14th century. While part of the corresponding folia in the Hilendar codex has been lost, MSS 72 (14th c.) and 310 (16th c.) from the Library of the Rumanian Academy (Bucharest), which go back to the same group of manuscripts, allow us to reconstruct the archetype. The selective translation adapted from the Greek original illustrates well the work of the medieval Bulgarian bookman. In the 14th century, a new version of the same text was created in Bulgaria, as attested in MSS Hlud 237 and Vienna 42, which was the result of a new collation of the Old Bulgarian translation with the Greek text. The Slavonic tradition of this text is an example for the existence of multiple translations and versions of one and the same work in old Slavic florilegia. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=366163 | |

The present article is dedicated to the textological research and editing of the Slavic translation of a rare homily of this early Christian author De Neomeniis et de Sabbatis et de non observandis avium vocibus, BHG 635kb, CPG 5516. The text is directed against magical practices, especially against the evil eye (βασκανία), and it contains a rare description of this popular belief. The homily was found in the sixteenth-century miscellany No 1170 from the collection of I. Svencickij in the National Museum in L’viv, Ukraine. The codex with Serbian linguistic features has preserved archaic specifics of a much older archetype. In its composition the L’viv MS is close to other miscellanies studied by K. Stanchev and other medievalists. Presenting it to scholarship provides new opportunities for the study of this interesting tradition. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=123514 | |

| Анна Влаевска - Станчева | (Пиза–Рим) – Св. Методий в латинската небогослужебна традиция до началото на Новото време. Кн. 52 (2015), стр. 24–60. | ST. METHODIUS IN THE LATIN NON-LITURGICAL TRADITION BEFORE THE MODERN PERIOD ANNA VLAEVSKA-STANTCHEVA (PISA–ROME) (Abstract) The present publication continues to explore images of St. Methodius in the Western (Catholic) tradition, a topic already addressed in an article by K. Stantchev and A. Vlaevska-Stantcheva (see Kirilo-Metodievski studii 17, 2007: 687–701). It focused on how the person of Methodius is represented in the Western European, predominantly non-Slavic non-liturgical tradition from the 16th through the beginning of the 17th century. The lower chronological boundary of this study is the time of Emperor Charles VI (1355–1378), who officially added SS. Cyril and Methodius to the patrons of the Czech Kingdom in 1347. The article traces mentions of Methodius in works by the chroniclers of his court, Giovanni Marignoli and Přibík Pulkava. Special attention is paid to the little-known Historia Bohemica by Enea Silvio Piccolomini (1405–1464, Pope Pius II 1458–1464), which introduces Methodius-related motives previously known only in the Czech tradition into non-Slavic Western historiography. In this connection, the article examines works by several notable representatives of Italian and German Humanism, such as Raffaele Maffei (also known as Raphaele Volaterano), Johannes Nauclerus, Johann Georg Turmair (Johannes Aventinus), Giovanni Battista Cipelli (Battista Egnazio), and Girolamo Bardi. It acknowledges that the figure of Methodius appears mostly sporadically, albeit in works of various genres, and follows the evolution of his representation from the middle of the 16th century onward, from the historiographical texts of Johannes Dubravius and Marcin Kromer (Martin Cromer) to the Ecclesiastical Annals by Cardinal Cesare Baronio, which was largely responsible for confirming the Western European image of Methodius as an Apostle to the Slavs. The last part of the publication focuses on the image of Methodius in Benedictine historiographic and hagiographic literature from the end of the 14th through the middle of the 17th century, claiming that this tradition has its own independent development and serves as a “mirror” for the evolution of Methodius’s image in the non-Slavic West. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=366161 | |
| Анна Влаевска - Станчева | (Пиза) – Святост и изобретяване на историческа памет: култът към San Pietro Levita (De Bulgaro). Кн. 48 (2013), стр. 232–246. | HOLINESS AND THE INVENTION OF HISTORICAL MEMORY: THE CULT OF ST PETER LEVITE (DE BULGARO) ANNA VLAEVSKA-STANTCHEVA (PISA) (Abstract) The article discusses the cult of a local Italian saint, the blessed Peter Levite. Frequently called de Bulgaro in sources since the late sixteenth century, Peter has sometimes been ‘awarded’ Proto-Bulgarian descent by modern scholarship. The author argues that Peter’s cult developed in Vercelli (Piedmont, Northern Italy), in the tenth century, out of the historical figure of Peter, the deacon of Pope Gregory I (d. 604) and his interlocutor in Gregory’s famous Dialogues. The extant sources show that the cult started with the inventio of relics, and moreover, with their translatio to Salussola (province of Biella, Piedmont), which displays all the characteristics of a furtum sacrum. Over time, the local tradition altered the biography of Peter, linking the historical figure to the presumed ancestors of the noble family de Bulgaro (from Vercelli). From the end of the sixteenth century onwards, Peter has been celebrated as their protector. Yet, the historians who grounded their assumptions in the local tradition (a good example of a constructed, invented past and even of mythologized historical memory) have in fact turned the hagiographical legend into a historiographic one. Taking for granted the Proto-Bulgar origin of de Bulgaro family, some scholars have also attributed such descent to Peter, Pope Gregory’s collaborator, who, in fact, had no actual ties to the de Bulgaro family. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=6923 |

LEVSHINA (SANKT-PETERBURG) (Abstract) The project “Liturgical Heritage of Orthodox Church” aims at the introduction of forgotten, unknown and newly written hymns into liturgical practice. They are dedicated to church feasts and saints, both universal and local. The final goal of the project is to compile a Festal Menaion in Church Slavonic which will contain texts that are not present in the so-called “Green” Moscow Festal Menaion of 1978-1979. The project started in 1998 and since then numerous texts in manuscripts and early printed books written in various languages used in the Orthodox world have been examined and translated into Church Slavonic. Some of these hymns have been already implemented in church practice. In the present article are reported the most important results of the archeographical and textual work with manuscripts and early printed books in Russia, Bulgaria, Serbia, Montenegro, Greece, and other countries. The materials collected exceed the volume of the “Green” Menaion. The huge material collected required elaboration of well-grounded criteria for selection of texts to be published. These criteria are based on detailed textual analysis of the mosaic structures of the hymnic works studied. In this analysis, a new method was used for comparison of similar sources by distribution of the incipits of hymnic units in tables. This type of textological analysis of similar hymnic sources with mosaic structures is demonstrated in the paper on the units for September 3. The texts chosen for publication are edited in accordance with the norms and rules of the present-day liturgical rites and Church Slavonic. The editors aim at greater comprehensibility, euphony, theological faithfulness, and correspondence to the present-day Russian Typikon. In result, various hymns dating from different periods can be included in the present-day liturgy conducted in Church Slavonic. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=103938 |

The manuscript contains an old hagiographic collection for September, October and the first eleven days of November that could be traced back to the First Bulgarian Kingdom and the rule of Tsar Petar. The codex appeared in a difficult political and cultural situation after the defeat of the Bulgarian Tsar Michael Shishman in 1330, when a part of the Western Bulgarian lands were subjugated to Serbian rule. The author aims to identify the Bulgarian and Serbian features on orthographic, phonetic and morphological levels in order to establish the hypothetical antigraph of the codex, and concludes, on the base of the analysis, that the compilation was copied from a sophisticated Middle Bulgarian manuscript that shared the linguistic and orthographic characteristics of the Tǎrnovo written tradition before Patriarch Euthymius’ reform. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=718612 | |

Jan Hus was a pioneer in his fight to introduce the Czech language as a language of the Holy Scriptures, whereas Constantine Kostenečki strived to reform a written language with more than a five-century long history. Unlike Hus, who according to the extant sources hardly knew anything about Serbia, Constantine had enough information about the Hussite movement and the political situation in the Czech lands, since his sovereign, despot Stefan Lazarevič, was a vassal to the Hungarian King, Holy Roman Emperor Sigizmund, and took part in the anti-Hussite military campaign of 1421. And even though Constantine created the norms of Resava School which for centuries influenced the Orthodox written tradition while Hus’s ideas came to fruition only after his death, Constantine Kostenečki remained deeply rooted in the Middle Ages whereas Jan Hus came to be seen as a precursor of the Modern Age. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=476765 | |

Кн. 41–42 (2009), стр. 144–149. | THE WITCH OF AENDOR, THE ASHES, THE VIPER AND A BIBLICAL TOPOS ANNA-MARIJA TOTOMANOVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) The article speculates on the origins of the expression влъхва попельница denominating the witch of Aendor (a woman with familiar spirit), to whom king Saul turned in his despair in order to obtain Samuel’s prophecy about the future of his bloodline and his own fate. It occurs on p. 423а18-19 of the Slavic version of the Chronicle of George Synkellos and does not correspond to the Greek word ἐγγαστρίμυθος in the Septuaginta. The ancient Greeks believed that sorcerers and necromancers (who prophesised to call upon the dead and ask them about the future) had πνεῦμα Πύθωνα and called them πυθώνες. In the Latin Vulgata magicians are referred to as people having python or contacting pythones. In the Bible the Greek idiom πνεῦμα Πύθωνα survived only in Acts 16:16, being replaced by ἐγγαστρίμυθος in the Old Testament as a translation of Hebraic 'ob ‘water skin; mumble’. King James Version describes sorcerers as having familiar spirits, i.e. being served by a spirit. We believe that Old Church Slavonic влъхва попельница reflects the Greek perception of the gift of divination as a result of having or being a python(issa). The Greek word was etymologised by the Slavic translator of Synkellos as deriving from the verb πύθομαι ‘to rot, decay’. The latter corresponds with the rare reading духъ прашьнъ for πνεῦμα Πύθωνα in some Old Church Slavonic Apostles and should be explained in the same way, since both stems прах- and попел- share the meaning ‘decay; mortality’. We suppose that the Bulgarian translator deliberately chose the noun попельница instead of the adjective попельнъ in order to identify the mythical dragon Python with the viper whose name was tabooed in South Slavic. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=123517 | |

ANNA-MARIA TOTOMANOVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) The paper tackles upon the struture and content of the text identified by Istrin as a Slavic translation of the Chronicle of George Synkellos. The detailed comparison of the Slavic version with the Greek text of Synkellos did nоt confirm Istrin’s considerations. The Slavic version contains only a small part of Synkellоs’ Chronicle covering the years after the Resurrection of Christ up to the reign of Diocletianus and continues with the narrative of Theophanus Confessor up to the foundation of Constantinople. The first part of the Slavic chronicle, which covers the world history from the Creation up to the Resurrection, is based and structured according the chronological concepts of Sextus Julius Africanus, a Christian writer from the third century. Africanus’ Chronograph, though highly respected and used by the most popular Byzantine historians, has not been preserved in the Byzantine manuscript tradition. The latter means that the Slavic text contains the only relatively full version of Africanus Chronography. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=81379 | |

The author presumes that the significant delay in developing new palatals before „ят” (yat alternation) in this region depends on the fact that these dialects developed palatal correlation before the back continuants of the front vowels „ь” and „ят”. The phenomenon took place centuries ago and the transformation of yers in Rodopa region coincided with the transformation of nasal vowels. As a result very stable consonant and vocal systems were formed. The existence of palatal correlation postponed the palatalisation before „ят”. Only atpresent when the back vowels replacing “ь” and „ент” started changing in “e” after the palatalconsonants yat alternation began. | http://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=211016 |

Bulgarian compilation Golden Chain contains versions of texts from five centuries. This paper identifies the text of units 320–340 in the Golden Chain as a faithful translation from the Syntagma of Matthew Blastares, the Greek text of which is dated to 1335: it is an excerpt from its section 2 (Β), chapter 8 (Η), on the degrees of consanguinity and affinity and forbidden and permitted marriages. The excerpt covers in full roughly the first half of chapter 8, leaving out the second half devoted to marriages among three lineages. The text is presented in a lineated collation of the Greek source text with two copies of the Slavonic translation which are shown to be transcriptions of one antigraph written in Glagolitic. It is the first reliable example of transcription Cyrillic → Glagolitic (the closed tradition of the translation of the Syntagma shows no trace of Glagolitic). Why such intervention was imposed cannot as yet be explained.

JOHN OF RILA IN THE BOYANA CHURCH BISERKA PENKOVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) The latest restorations of the Boyana church near Sofia revealed that the image of a monk in the nartex defined as St. John of Rila in the inscription (written by a different hand than the rest of the inscriptions in the church) has not been altered. This is the oldest preserved image of St. John of Rila, dating from 1259. The formation of his iconography is a part of the development of the saint’s cult in the capital of Tărnovo after 1195 when his relics were translated there from Sredec. The article raises the question if some depictions of St. John of Rila were created in Sredec (where his relics were kept for more than a century and where a local cult was formed). According to the author the few images of St. John of Rila dating before the fifteenth century could be divided in two groups, defined as “Sredec type” and “Tărnovo type”. The painting in the Boyana church belongs to the former. Its iconographic analysis leads to the conclusion that the most appropriate model for it was the image of St. John Klimax. The depiction of St. John of Rila in Boyana testifies that in the middle of the thirteenth century a Bulgarian tradition for representing the saint as a high-ranking monk who had taken vows of the Great Schema already existed. Yet, in the Boyana church St. John of Rila is depicted along with the most respected figures of the Eastern monasticism (across him is St. Pachomios, the founder of the cenobitic monasticism) and next to the portraits of the Bulgarian rulers. The place of St. John of Rila in the iconographic program of the Boyana church suggests that those who had painted his image considered St. John a spiritual advisor of great authority rather than a hermit living in utmost solitude. This representation corresponds to the outstanding place of the saint in the spiritual life of the Second Bulgarian State during the second half of the thirteenth century. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=125080 |

Factors for the Development of Sacred Space BISTRA NIKOLOVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) One of the methods to study the intensity with which Christianity has spread in medieval Bulgaria after the official conversion is to compare the density of the settlements with the number of the Christian buildings located within their parameters. The article focuses on North-eastern Bulgaria in the period between eighth and tenth centuries. The early Byzantine churches, although reduced to ruins, were still perceived as sacred places by pagan Bulgarians, – a fact, supported by the establishment of early Bulgarian Christian cemeteries (necropoles) and churches on these ground (e.g. Abritus). The construction of churches intensified during the ninth and the tenth centuries, mainly in the two capitals, Pliska and Preslav – the political and religious centres of the state. The discrepancy between the density of the settlement network and the number of the church buildings is one of the typical characteristics of this early period. In the course of these two centuries, there were still large medieval settlements and even whole regions with no church building, regardless of the facts, that data extrapolated through other sources shows the presence of a Christian population in them. At the same time, the proximity or remoteness of a settlement from the capital cities appears to be an important factor for erecting a church building. In areas close to Pliska and Preslav, the density of churches was greater, while, apparently, the monasteries had more tangible presence in the countryside. In the ninth and the tenth centuries there were two or three main religious centres in North-eastern Bulgaria: Durostorum and Pliska/ Preslav. Following the roads which connected these main centres, one could detect a higher concentration of churches and monasteries near them. This fact suggests that the road system was a strong factor in establishing and expanding the sacred spaces in the early medieval Bulgaria. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=6924 | |

ABOUT THE MYTHS AND THE REALIA BISTRA NIKOLOVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) The article deals with a written document known as the Testament of St. John of Rila which autentisity has been an object of ongoing discussions. The aim of the author is to comment whether this text could be regarded as a real legacy of St. John of Rila or as a later forgery. With this regard the data of the colophon (which is supposed to be an autentic fourteenth-century text and which speaks about a reliable later copy of the Testament) are analyzed. Outlined are some realia connected with the cult of the saint and the monastic organization of Rila monastery which are mentioned in the colophon, but which could not be discovered in the documents dating from the tenth to the fourteenth century; yet, all these terms find their correspondence after the seventeenth century. Along with this, some chronological arguments also reject the possibility that the colophon has been created at the end of the fourteenth or at the beginning of the fifteenth century. Some facts and some observations of the author suggest that the Testament itself as well was not written, as it is stated, during the first half of the tenth century. Thus, putting together the textual evidence and some events from the history of the Rila monastery in the nineteenth century, the author comes to the conclusion that the so-called Testament of St. John of Rila is a later, most probably nineteenth-century forgery (the earliest preserved copies of the work also date from the nineteenth century). | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=45495 |

Krysko and Ksenia Yu. Doykina in their article “St Elmo’s Fire over the Balkans: The Martyrdom of Erasmus” (Starobulgarska Literatura, 63–64/2021, 15–96), and clarifies some important issues related to the dissemination of works dedicated to his memory in the Latin, Greek, and Slavonic manuscript traditions. One of them is the absence of blending of cults of homonymous saints in the Balkan and Orthodox tradition in general, which is suggested by the Russian researchers, as is evident from the title of their article. Exactly the opposite phenomenon is characteristic of the Western Christian tradition, which has witnessed numerous homonymous saints attached to the name of the renowned martyr of Formia. The veneration of this martyr and proto-evangelizer across the Bulgarian lands, especially in Ohrid and its surroundings, as well as the possibility to reconstruct the missing link in the phonetic development of the old Greek name Lychnidus to the modern name of the town, Ohrid, precisely from the works about St Erasmus in all three versions of his Vita, are indicative of the differences between the two traditions. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=1198333 | |

Кн. 48 (2013), стр. 67–78. | THE CULT OF ST ERASMUS OF OHRID (OF FORMIA) IN THE EASTERN AND THE WESTERN TRADITION BOYKA MIRCHEVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) The aim of this study is to explore whether there is a blending of different cults in the veneration of St Erasmus of Ohrid. As is known, in the Western Church several other cults were attached to and merged with the cult of St Erasmus. This fact explains the popularity which the Saint enjoys in Central and Southern Italy and Sicily. However, in the Eastern Orthodox tradition there are no detectable traces of combining or mixing hagiographic motifs from the stories of other saints in the texts or images of St Erasmus. The church celebration on May 10, which is usually regarded as a blending of various commemorations, is in fact an entirely different fest. The only thing that could somehow point to such a blending is the preservation of copies of the Vita of St Erasmus of Ohrid under different dates (May 4, June 10, and even May 10) instead of original dates of his celebration, namely 1st or 2nd of June. The Vita, however, was left uncorrupted and uncontaminated with other stories. The data presented in the article led to the conclusion that the cult of St Erasmus developed locally, and was not translated or adapted from elsewhere. In supporting this assertion the author presents oral and written evidence about the allegedly legendary name of the place where the Saint died according to the local Ohrid tradition – Hermelia. It appeared to be a toponym attested over time in the area near the town of Ohrid. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=6920 |

Doykina (Abstract) The Life of St Erasmus (The Martyrdom of Erasmus, Passio Erasmi) is known in three versions, i.e. Latin, Greek and Slavic. The Latin version is represented by dozens of copies since the nineteenth century, the Greek one, by only three copies of the eleventh–fourteenth centuries. A number of facts, especially the rendering of toponyms, indicate the primacy of the Latin text, in comparison with which the three Greek copies appear as a reflection of two different translations or recensions. The Old Bulgarian translation of Passio Erasmi, unknown to the researchers of Latin and Greek hagiography, has been preserved in an Old East Slavic manuscript of the twelfth century and in several Russian copies of the fifteenth–sixteenth centuries; these two branches of the Slavic tradition show considerable similarity, but go back to the different archetypes. The article presents a critical edition of the Slavic text according to the oldest copy with significant variants from other manuscripts; in parallel, the oldest copy of the Greek version is published for the first time with variae lectiones of other copies relevant to the Slavic translation as well as the readings of the Latin version close to the Slavic one. The publication is accompanied by a reconstruction of the Old Bulgarian text and its translation into modern Russian. An analysis of the Slavic translation suggests that it was based on a Greek text that was different from the three surviving copies, but in a number of points coincided with the earlier Latin text. Some features of translation techniques and archaisms give grounds to trace the Slavic translation back to the tenth century. The fact that the Life of Erasmus, who suffered martyrdom in the Balkan lands, was chosen among thousands of others for translation in the First Bulgarian Empire, reflects the still living tradition of the veneration of Erasmus as a Balkan martyr par excellence, a tradition that was preserved by the Byzantine Church and was handed over to the Bulgarian Church, and from it – to the Russian Church and Russian scripture. Keywords: Latin, Greek, and Slavic hagiography; Passio Erasmi; Old Bulgarian translation; critical edition; translation technique; lexical and grammatical peculiarities | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=997910 |

Кн. 41–42 (2009), стр. 453–465. | PRINTING AND MAGIC AT THE THRESHOLD OF MODERN EUROPE: THE TYPOGRAPHIC AMULET BETWEEN THE APENNINES AND THE BALKANS VALENTINA IZMIRLIEVA (NEW YORK) (Abstract) The early history of Cyrillic printing presents us with a paradox. Even though the printed medium ensured in perspective the emergence of a broad reading public, some of the first Slavonic texts to appear in print were intended not for reading but for wearing on the body as amulets. The article focuses on the book that embodies the paradox: Božidar Vuković’s Miscellany for Travelers (Venice, 1520). This volume was the first non-liturgical Cyrillic printed book addressed explicitly to individual secular buyers, and it was the first to include typographic amulets. The article argues that these two precedents were mutually dependent. Three groups of amulet texts made their typographic debut in Vuković’s Miscellany: 1) a short “Eulogy of the Holy Cross” with “cross-shaped words” (krestnye slovesa); 2) texts from the apocryphal cycle about King Abgar; and 3) a pair of sacronymic lists, “The 72 Names of the Lord” and “The 72 Names of the Theotokos.” The Miscellany merged these previously unrelated texts into a well-crafted amulet corpus “against all evils”, designed to appeal specifically to the book’s target audience of secular travelers. The choice of the audience was no less calculated, since itinerant merchants were some of the most promising buyers on the emerging Cyrillic book market. The typographic amulet thus proved to be an important cultural agent of early Slavic modernity that helped consolidate the market in typographic goods by promoting books even to those who could not read at all. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=123515 | |

These “glosses” are systematised as an interpretation of the Greek text in the following way: – Explanations of Greek words, which were not translated into Bulgarian. The most important samples are those which describe terms of Christian religion. – Explanations of more complicated rhetoric topics used by the Greek author. This kind of glosses reveals the level of mastering the educated Greek rhetoric style of Constantine Manasses. – Substitutions of Greek toponyms with Bulgarian. Although the analysis of the glosses indicates some mistakes and inaccuracies of the Bulgarian translator (or translators), these explanatory notes reveal the aim of the Bulgarian men-of-letter to adapt the Greek text to the Bulgarian cultural society. The complex examination of the manuscript tradition of the Chronicle leads to the conclusion that these glosses were inserted in the main text simultaneously with the original translation. This is the difference between the glosses and the other marginal notes explaining other Greek words, which became incomprehensible in a later period. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=81377 | |

The original Greek text of the Office is unknown until now, as well as the Greek text of the Canon and the other parts of the Office; 2. No other copy of the entire Office has been found; some of its parts survived in a very few Slavic manuscripts, but they are not situated at the same places as in the Sinai Festal Menaion. These arguments support the hypothesis that the canon from the office for the 7th of October in MS Sin.

The author puts forward the hypothesis that the church “Holy Archangels” was build in 1114 by Alexios I Komnenos in commemoration of Gregory Pakourianos, the founder of the Bačkovo Monastery, in connection with the anti-heretical activities of the emperor against Paulicians and Bogomils in the region of Plovdiv. In 1344 Tsar John Alexander concurred some territories around Plovdiv and in the Rodopae mountain. In order to strengthen his power in the recently occupied lands, he made donations to the Bačkovo Monastery. Changes were made in the monastic ossuary and in the “Holy Archangels” church . The icon “Holy Archangels Michael and Gabriel” dedicated to the patrons of the church, now stored in the Department of Old Bulgarian Art (“The Crypt”) of the National Art Gallery, also dates back to this time. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=45498 |

The analysis concentrates on these texts’ dependence on certain early Church Slavic prints, particularly the Skrizhal’ published in 1665 in Moscow – the most widely read work on theology among the Orthodox Slavs in the 17th and 18th centuries. Other works that appear to have influenced the Serbian commentators include certain late Byzantine mystagogies, the most significant of which are De sacra liturgia and Expositio de divino templo by St. Symeon of Thessaloniki (second half of the 14th century – 1429). The appearance and spread among the Balkan Slavs of two printed mystagogies is the outcome of the more general processes connected with the struggle of the Orthodox Slavic nations (living under Ottoman or Austro-Hungarian rule) to find their own approach to theology – in this particular case, to liturgics. This approach, which has its origins in Greek and Russian religious thought, develops in the second half of the 18th century into a plan to enrich the Eastern tradition with ideas taken over from Western theology – a plan which was never carried out. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=123520 |

Кн. 65-66 (2022), стр. 184–212. | CYCLE OF LIVES OF BULGARIAN AND SERBIAN SAINTS IN THE VERSE SYNAXARION Georgi Petkov (Plovdiv) Abstract This article presents data on nine synaxarion lives of Bulgarian and Serbian saints contained in one of the few extant copies of the Verse Synaxarion that covers the whole year. This is manuscript No. 47 in the library of the Zograph Monastery on Mount Athos (Zogr47). It is dated between 1473 and 1524, and its redаction is defined as Bulgarian without juses (ѫ, ѧ). It was created by two brothers from the village of Piskopie, near Debar – Yoan and Nikola Miloshev. The manuscript can be divided into two parts: the first part contains the complete Tаrnovo recension of the Verse Synaxarion and is the work of Yoan Miloshev; the second is his brother Nikola’s. The first part includes six original synaxarion lives of Bulgarian and Serbian saints: of St Petka of Tarnovo (14 October), St John of Rila (19 October), St Ilarion of Maglen (21 October), St Michael the Bulgarian (22 November), St Sava of Serbia (14 January), and St Simeon of Serbia (13 February), as well as the text of a translated from Greek verse synaxarion life of St Clement of Ohrid (27 July). The second part begins with the only surviving copy of the First synaxarion life of St Naum of Preslav-Ohrid (23 December), followed by the synaxarion life of the Byzantine saint Erasmus of Ohrid (of Formia). Next are twenty-five Sunday sermons. The inclusion of so many verses about Bulgarian and Serbian saints in one codex makes this manuscript unique. It should be given its due place in research on the Verse Synaxarion. It is a testimony to the perceived need for unity in spiritual activities in the Balkans under foreign rule. The Appendix contains the texts from Zogr47 in calendar order, and variant readings given from the oldest Bulgarian and Serbian copies of the Verse Synaxarion. It can be concluded that the synaxarion verses of the lives of Bulgarian and Serbian saints in Zogr47 preserved the texts without major changes for more than one century.

It is thought to be 80 years earlier than the existing copies of the Office known at present. This new transcript is a part of a miscellany, Russian edition, in the Synod collection of the Russian Orthodox Church, now kept in the State Historical archive in St. Petersburg. The article gives a short description of the manuscript and provides the complete text of the office including the spelling peculiarities. The transcript is compared with two previous editions of the Office and the discrepancies are highlighted. In broad outline the differences illustrate the usage of the lexical forms, omission or addition of words and phrases. In the text of this transcript the exact acrostic with Gregory Tzamblaks’s name is clearly visible. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=123545 | |

The study presents the peculiar features of the varied and many-layered content of the MS. The Old Bulgarian hymnographic works with acrostics written by the disciples of Cyril and Methodios, that are in the December and January services, are the object of special attention. The state of the copies has been described and some of the peculiarities of their composition and structure have been analyzed. “Old Bulgarian Ecclesiastical Poetry for the Nativity of Christ and for Theophany”, a three-volume work that has been prepared for the press, as well as other publications by the same author present a detailed comparative study of these hymns. The present article also deals with the translated hymnographic works in the services for the Nativity of Christ and Theophany (in accordance with the text available in the MS – the services for the period from 25th December to 7th January). This liturgical section contains archaic elements, as well as material excerpted from revised antigraphs. Individual peculiarities have also been found. They are the result of the striving to supplement and enrich the codex with hymnographic texts from additional sources. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=196299 | |

CLEMENT OF OCHRID GEORGI POPOV (SOFIA) (Abstract) The conclusion that the Old Bulgarian Canon on the Translation of the Relics of St. John Chrysostom is part of the hymnographic work of St. Clement of Ochrid stems from the link between its text and the stichera in the same service. These stichera were formed as an acrostic of the syllable КЛИ (see Stanchev, Popov 1988, pp. 147–149). Both hymnographic works have the same textual basis – they were composed to be sung to tune VIII and have identical or similar peculiarities with regard to their content, language and style. Some typical musical-rhythmic and compositional-structural features in them also point to the work of St. Clement of Ochrid. In the appendix a comparative edition of the Canon is given on the basis of the two extant copies. One of them is contained in the Festal Menaion No 522 of the National library “Cyril and Methodius” in Sofi a, a Middle Bulgarian MS from the 13th century known as the Skopje Menaion, while the other appears in the Festal Menaion No 98 of the Typographic Collection of RGADA in Moscow, an Old Russian MS from the 12th–13th centuries. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=123539 | |

ATANASOVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) The article discusses a fourteenth-century Serbian copy (MS III.c.24 from the Library of the Croatian Academy of Science and Art in Zagreb) of the Life of St. Anastasia – a Slavonic translation from Latin known until now only in its later Russian copies. The collation of the Serbian and the Russian copies of this text reveals that all three Slavic copies represent the same translation, although stemming from two different protographs (South Slavic and Russian). Thus, the presence of this text in a Serbian manuscript which according to it’s content goes back to the oldest South Slavic Reading Menaia, leads us to question the generally accepted opinion that the Life of St. Anastasia remained unknown in the Balkans and penetrated into Russia directly from the West (supposedly from Bohemia where, as it was stated, the original translation was made). | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=45490 |

Кн. 63-64 (2021), стр. 279–300. | OUTSIDE THE MEDIEVAL SOCIETY Desislava Naydenova (Abstract) Recently, the question of shaping identity and the perception of “the other” (by this term are commonly embraced not only foreigners, but also individuals, social groups and minorities, characterised by a certain degree of abnormality, marginality and exclusion) has become an increasingly popular topic for the researchers of the Middle Ages. This paper seeks to present translations of some Slavonic texts included in the so-called Nomokanon of Pseudo-Zonaras, a canon-law compilation from the beginning of the fourteenth century, that change, through the imposition of penances, the social status of groups and individuals, placing them in a marginal, intermediate, isolated position. The study shows that heretics and members of other religions such as Latins, Armenians, Jews, Muslims most clearly stand out as a group that could be defined as “the others”. Unambiguous and strictly regulated red lines were drawn between them and the Orthodox Christians that should not be violated, since those, who crossed them, were othered, marginalised, seen as outsiders to society. These were conditioned by rules that can be divided thematically into three groups: 1) applying to those who accept another’s faith, 2) relating to food prohibitions, and 3) governing mixed-faith marriages.

This information is not confirmed by any other sources, which makes its authenticity highly dubious. A few events related to the Bulgarian history were mentioned in the Lexikon. Their source is not known. Yet, the review of the source data reveals that the greater part of the references to the Bulgarians in Souda was based on events that had really happened. Refracted through the prism of history, however, events lose their reality. This may be due, on the one hand, to the sources used by the compiler himself; on the other hand, the cause may be the practice widespread in Byzantine literature to copy older writings or to add own information (in accordance with the personal position of the writer) with the aim to depict a particular episode as a moral model without much caring of whether the presented events corresponded to what had really happened. The comparison of the text of the Laws and the information in the Souda to the Ecloga, the Responses of Pope Nicholas I (Responsa Nicolai I papa ad consulta Bulgarorum) and the Court Law for the People (Zakon” sudnyi ljud’m”) – i.e. the sources which, together with the Mirrors of princes (Speculum regale), are viewed most often as reflections of Krum’s laws – shows that the regulations of oaths, stealing and complicity, the uprooting of vines and the support for the poor had no analogue in the observed monuments. Thus, they should rather be related to the points that appeared most often in the instructions to the rulers: justice, sobriety, charity and care for the subjects. All this leads to the conclusion that the Souda Lexikon had a legendary basis and could not be used as a reliable source about the legal system in Bulgaria after the Conversion. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=45491 |

The text was translated not once but twice at the dawn of Old Bulgarian literature. My research aims to explore the earliest translation of Praxis de stratilatis produced in a South Slavic milieu. The main objective of the study is to identify the Greek prototype of the Slavonic version and to trace the textual tradition of this account in the South Slavic context. The study is based upon the hypothesis that the two translations were affected by the introduction of specific types of calendar collections. In this respect, the earliest translation of Praxis de stratilatis was introduced into the repertoire with the emergence of a collection known in the Byzantine tradition as panegyrikomartyrology – an assemblage of texts that pertain to both the movable and immovable Orthodox feasts. Witnesses of the earliest translation of Praxis de stratilatis date from the 14th through the 17th centuries. Despite the large temporal scope, however, individual manuscripts do not show significant differences or other traces of deliberate editing or interventions. This gives us reason to believe that the Slavic version of the collection panegyrikomartyrology was not reproduced as a whole, which would account for the fact that the texts, although they were copied in the later manuscript tradition, remained relatively unchanged. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=366167 | |

PAUL DIANA ATANASOVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) The article discusses a significant episode in the Martyrdom of St. Thecla describing Thecla sitting next to the window and listening to the preaching of St. Paul the Apostle. She could observe the people crowding and hear Paul’s voice, but she could not look at him. Anxious to see Paul’s face, Thecla left her home and followed Paul. In a recent study Adelina Angusheva-Tihanova has already interpreted this part of St. Thecla’s passion. In this article Apostle Paul is considered as a key figure for the understanding of the whole episode. In his First Epistle to the Corinthians (1 Cor. 13-12) he uses a catoptrical metaphor which could be used as an interpretative key which allows us to think about the episode as an allegory of what was said by Paul in 1 Cor. 13:12. It is interesting that the Passion of another early Christian martyr, St. Justina, contains the same episode. The author suggests that Paul’s words in 1 Cor. 13-12 cast light on the symbolic meaning of episodes about virgins sitting by the window as a symbol of the spiritual change they were going through. | http://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=211025 |

It aims at reconstructing the main trajectories of transmission not only of the available Slavic copies, but also of the Greek manuscript tradition. The paper is placed within the framework of the recent project of a digital edition of the Bdinski Sbornik (Ghent University Library, cod. slavicus 408), which envisages a full-scale research into the textual history of all the texts contained in that miscellany. Since within the Slavic manuscript tradition the Story of Abraham and his niece (itself forming only part of the full vita of Abraham) was transmitted primarily within the context of the collection of works of Ephrem the Syrian, known as Paraenesis, the results of this research bear also on issues related to the history of that collection. By analyzing the Slavic and Greek variant readings of just one passage which, however, appears to be key to understanding both the Greek and the Slav text transmission as well as their interrelations, it is shown that the Slavic translation goes back to the most archaic layers of the Greek tradition. At the same time Kodov’s hypothesis of a secondary translation of the Paraenesis may be called into question on the ground of the available textual evidence. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=103941 |

The author reckons it to be an intricately conceived book containing sermons and vitae, all selected and put in a complicated calendar order in accordance to the following general thematic frame: the Incarnation and the earthly life of Christ; the life in Christ and the Salvation – through fasting, penance, and martyrdom; and the God’s blessing manifested through the Descent of the Holy Spirit and the miracles of the saints. Based on this interpretation, the study attempts at complementing the known composition models of the archaic Sredna Gora Damaskini and the New-Bulgarian Damaskini of the classic period (late 16th – 17th c). It also aims at summing up the records on the non-Thesauros’ texts for calendar entries that do not derive from the original anthology and on those that duplicate or replace texts of the original Damaskenos Studites’ collection. Within the group of the Damaskini that have calendar related contents the study identified six structural variants of transforming the Thesauros’ model, as well as their sub-variants. The classification reflects the degree of preservation/destruction or resemantization of the thematic-calendar frame of the original anthology. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=103932 | |

Although they are known only from Russian codices, they bear definite marks of the Bulgarian cultural doctrine from the tenth century. The monk Gregory’s heading saying that he had translated the Books of the Old Testament from Greek into Slavonic by the order of Tsar Symeon I of Bulgaria in the beginning of the tenth century is to be found in the Archivskij Chronograph. The second compilation discussed keeps the Rulers’ List (Imennik of the Bulgarian Khans). The comparative analysis of composition and contents of the two compilations suggests that the Heading of monk Gregory functions as an introduction to the world history that marks the first appearance of the Bulgarians in it , whereas the Rulers’ List is used as a substitute for the Bible books Paralipomenon in the composition of the Letopisets Ellinskij i Rimskij. Both the Heading and the Rulers’ List are seen as parts of ideological constructs representing the concept of ruling of the tenth-century Bulgarian tsars Symeon and Peter. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=125077 | |

Thus, St. Prochoros of Pšinja is connected with St. John of Rila.

Bulanin (Abstract) This article compares three Slavonic versions of one and the same theological composition translated from the Greek: the commentaries by Nicetas of Heraclea, the prominent Byzantine exegete of the eleventh century, on the collection of sixteen homilies by Gregory the Theologian. The Slavonic text of the commentaries is known in three versions. Version (1) is abridged and the oldest of the three. It is considered an Old Russian translation and has entered the „Second Slavonic Edition“ of Gregory the Theologian’s collection of sixteen homilies. Version (2) is an extended version, produced by South Slavic writers in the fourteenth century, which appeared in the „Third South Slavonic Edition“ of Gregory’s collection. Version (3) is included in the „Third East Slavonic Edition.“ Its first half, related to Homilies 1–8, is almost identical to the corresponding part of version (2), while its second half (homilies 9–16) contains original Russian commentaries based on the old abridged translation, i.e. version (1), although the content has been considerably altered and expanded. All examples used to compare the three Slavonic versions are taken from Nicetas’ commentaries on one homily dedicated to Gregory of Nyssa. The article significantly corrects our traditional understanding of Gregory the Theologian’s Slavonic reception by proposing, for example, that version (2) is independent from version (1). The author draws his conclusions not only from comparing the texts themselves, but from analyzing the different functions assigned to each version, which, in the final analysis determined the textual discrepancies among them. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=913108 |

Кн. 67-68 (2023), стр. 13-46. | THE BYZANTINE SOURCES OF CONSTANTINE OF PRESLAV’S UCHITEL’NOE EVANGELIE Dobriela Kotova Keywords: Constantine of Preslav’s Uchitel’noe evangelie (Didactic Gospel); Greek sources of Uchitel’noe evangelie; catena manuscripts of the Greek New Testament; John Chrysostom’s homilies on the Gospels of Matthew and John; Greek-Slavonic translation Abstract: This article provides a summarized and systematized review of the Greek sources used by Constantine of Preslav in compiling the sermons in his Uchitel’noe evangelie (Didactic Gospel). Wholly translated from Greek are the middle (commentary) parts of all fifty-one sermons, as well as the conclusion of Sermon 16. Translated passages also occur in other conclusions. The introductions and most of the conclusions were written by Constantine himself. The commentaries on the pericopes of Matthew and John, though attributed to John Chrysostom, are not taken from his original homilies. The Greek source is their abridged versions found in Type A catenae to the two Gospels. The complete catenae (catenae integrae) of this type have been published by John Cramer, but the text of the Uchitel’noe evangelie differs from them in many places. This is because Constantine selected and translated passages from two other catenae of this type: catena prima Typus A in Matthaeum (CPG C110.1) and catena prima Typus A in Iohannem (C140.1). However, Constantine was critical of the version of his main source, and in a number of sermons on Matthew he either integrated into the translation of the catena text passages of different lengths taken directly from Chrysostom’s homilies, or preferred Chrysostom’s original expressions and words to the variants in the catena. The translated passages in some of the conclusions and the whole conclusion of Sermon 16 are based on Chrysostom’s original text. The commentary parts of the sermons on pericopes of Luke contain translated texts from catena Typus A in Lucam (CPG C130). In it, scholia from the homilies on Luke by Cyril of Alexandria, Titus of Bostra, and Origen, and from John Chrysostom’s homilies on Matthew are combined into a single anonymous text. Fragments of Isidore of Pelusium and other authors are quoted. It is characteristic of the catena that a number of passages from the Gospel text are left without commentary; instead, the catena compiler, who also compiled C110.1 and C140.1, refers to his commentary on Matthew. These omissions are the reason why the commentary parts in some of the sermons on Luke, in whole or in part, are translations of texts from C110.1, and why Chrysostom’s name figures in the headings. Because of the lack of a catena to Mark, in the Uchitel’noe evangelie there are either no separate sermons on this Gospel or there are sermons compiled from C110.1 and therefore attributed to John Chrysostom. The attribution of seven sermons to Isidore of Pelusium is erroneous and is probably due to the fact that he is the most-cited author in C130. The appearance of his name in the heading of Sermon 35 is correct to some extent: a fragment of a letter of Isidore quoted in the catena is indeed included into its commentary part, while the rest of the catena text translated by Constantine comes from a scholium by Severus of Antioch. The scholia in the sermons attributed to Isidore are anonymous in C130, but probably belong to Cyril of Alexandria. Recently discovered evidence about translations of texts from C130 in sermons outside of the Uchitel’noe evangelie allows the conclusion to be drawn that the set of three catenae to the Gospels of Matthew, John, and Luke compiled by the same compiler – catenae primae Typus A in Matthaeum et Iohannem (C110.1, C140.1) and catena Typus A in Lucam (C130) – circulated in a Slavic environment in the late ninth and early tenth centuries. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=1198310 | |
| Добриела Котова | (София) – Оригинално произведение на Константин Преславски ли е 42 слово на Учителното евангелие?. Кн. 65-66 (2022), стр. 99–126. | SERMON 42 OF UCHITEL’NOE EVANGELIE: TRANSLATION AND ORIGINALITY Dobriela Kotova (Sofia) Abstract This article tackles the question of whether the commentary part of Sermon 42 of Constantine of Preslav’s Uchitel’noe evangelie (Didactic Gospel) is original or translated. It is peculiar for its brevity and lack of real clarification. The whole sermon has hitherto been considered to have been authored by Constantine, as no correspondences have been found in a Greek source. Its comparison, however, with different types of catenae commenting on Lk 17:12–19 shows that the middle part of this sermon is translated. This translation was made mainly from a manuscript which contained a Type A catena to the Gospel of Luke (CPG C 130, sixth century). Some differences with it, however, point to other types of catenae. The brevity and peculiarity of the sermon also stem from the Greek source. The deviations from the main Greek source text have parallels in the commentary of Type B catenae (CPG C 131, seventh century) to the same passage from the Gospel of Luke, but Dobriela Kotova argues that they are rather related to certain fragments preserved in the eleventh-century catena of Nicetas of Heraclea (CPG C 135). It might be assumed that the additions and changes made in the middle part of Sermon 42, as compared to the main source, resulted from the influence of a larger catena or another source which somehow became common to both the Slavonic translator and Nicetas of Heraclea.

This issue is very important not only for studying the poetics of this literature, but also the poetics of individuals works. The attitude of the author to inspiration and to the word itself seems particularly interesting. One can find a wide repertoire of thoughts on this problem in the literary pieces by Theodosius of Hilandar, in particular in his Praise of St. Simeon and St. Sava, Serbian Teachers. The spiritual dining table and the word are dominant motives in Theodosius' theology of creativity. The writer's attitude to divine words is not a consequence of the creative act, but it derives from the author's substantial attitude to the word of ministry, which is a reflection of Divine presence in every word about God. Through this, the primary presence of the sacred in this text is realized, but it is also presented in the praise of those who attained the likeness of God and were made holy in Christ. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=123552 | |

Кн. 65-66 (2022), стр. 282–316. | LIEUX DE MÉMOIRE OF ST GORAZD AND ST ANGELARIUS IN THE CITY OF BERAT (ALBANIA) Evgeni Zashev (Sofia) Abstract This article examines various lieux de mémoire associated with St Gorazd and St Angelarius in the city of Berat (Belograd, Velagrad, Velegrad or Albanian Belgrade), in order to highlight the place and role of the memory of these two disciples of Cyril and Methodius in the process of the emergence and institutionalization of the cult of the Holy Heptarithmoi (the Seven Slavic Saints). Its objects of study are oral lore about the relics of St Gorazd and St Angelarius, and the artefacts and written monuments attesting to the veneration of these saints. The various sources presented here categorically attest that in the eighteenth–nineteenth centuries, and perhaps quite earlier, the memory of St Gorazd and St Angelarius was venerated in Berat. This memory was most probably entirely post-biographical and had mixed (folk and literary) origins, based on their supposed relics. It is the connection with these relics that unites a series of lieux de mémoire which, arranged in chronological order, look like this: Berat (Venetian) office for the Seven Slavic Saints with a canon dedicated to St Gorazd and St Angelarius (1720); an icon of the Seven Slavic Saints representing the assumption of St Gorazd and St Angelarius (1812–1814); two reliquaries in the shape of shoes, one of them dedicated to St Angelarius (1823); A Brief Historical Overview of the Holy Metropolitanate of Velehrad by Anthimos Alexoudis, indicating the church of the Dormition of the Theotokos in Berat as the place where the relics of St Gorazd and St Angelarius were preserved (1868); a second icon of the Seven Slavic Saints representing the assumption of St Gorazd and St Angelarius (1873); a silver-plated reliquary from the church of the Dormition of the Theotokos in Berat. The hypothesis is presented that the meaningful framework uniting those lieux de mémoire is a local oral narrative that is partially reconstructed. The interpretation of the sources listed and of the links between them points to the conclusion that the “relics” of St Gorazd and St Angelarius were the material basis for the construction of a local tradition of veneration which, in turn, formed the core of the cult of the Seven Slavic Saints that was institutionalized in the early eighteenth century. These relics are the sacred centre around which the memory of the seven Slavic enlighteners was organized in Berat and its surroundings – a cult that was to be gradually freed from this dependence, as the chronologically second Moscopole office for the Seven Saints shows, and to become part of Bulgarian Revival culture.

Кн. 63-64 (2021), стр. 301–322. | A BRIEF HISTORICAL OVERVIEW OF THE HOLY METROPOLITANATE OF VELEHRAD BY ANTHIMOS ALEXOUDIS, CONTAINING INFORMATION ABOUT THE HOLY HEPTARITHMOI Evgeni Zashev (Abstract) This paper seeks to present the notes and references to the Seven Slavic Saints in the work by Anthimos Alexoudis, Bishop of Berat, published in 1868 under the title “Σύντομος ἱστορικὴ περιγραφὴ τῆς Ίερᾶς Μητροπόλεως Βελεγραδῶν καὶ τῆς ὑπὸ τὴν πνευματικὴν αὐτῆς δικαιοδοσίαν ὑπαγομένης χώρας”. A short biography of the author is provided to trace his education and career as a clergyman close to the Oecumenical Patriarchate. Particular attention is paid to his research interests in the fields of palaeography, epigraphy and church history by offering a bibliographic description of his most important works. In order to reveal the genesis of bishop Anthimos’s interest in the life’s work of the Holy Heptarithmoi (the Seven Slavic Saints), an attempt is made to reconstruct various aspects of the spiritual atmosphere in the diocese of Berat relating to the Slavic enlighteners: oral tradition, religious services and church representations. A brief overview of the contents of Anthimos Alexoudis’ book is placed within that cultural-historical context. It is noted that in his work the clergyman mentions the Seven Saints three times – in the seventh, eighth and tenth chapters – and the relevant excerpts are translated into Bulgarian. Attention is also paid to the fact that the bishop has committed himself to the preservation of the relics believed to have belonged to Sts Gorazd and Angelarius: a reliquary was made for the purpose with the costs covered by the metropolitan church. In conclusion, it is emphasised that the book by Anthimos Alexoudis testifies to the fact that one century after abolishing the autocephaly of the Archbishopric of Ochrid and placing its diocese under the jurisdiction of the Oecumenical Patriarchate, the memory of the life’s work of the Seven Saints was infallibly kept alive in the furthermost south-western regions. In the diocese of Berat there were two traditions of commemorating and celebrating these saints in the eighteenth and the ninetenth centuries: in Berat their feast day fell on 26 November; and in Moscopole their feast day fell on 17 July. Influenced by the then available Greek sources, by the oral tradition and by his own impressions, Anthimos Alexoudis composed a “Beratocentric” narrative about the life’s work of the Seven Saints, where he showed himself to be sympathetic both to the facts of the Bulgarian history and toward the contemporary Bulgarians, whom he called “our brethren in Christ”.

Кн. 39–40 (2008), стр. 184–196. | CONSIDERATIONS ABOUT THE FOURTEEN-CENTURY TĂRNOVO MAN-OF-LETTERS LAURENTIOS ЕVGUENI ZASHEV (BRATISLAVA) (Abstract) The article is focused on the personality of the mediaeval Bulgarian man-of-letters Laurentios. According to the author, along with the colophon to the so-called John Alexander’s codex from 1348, some other MSS (recently identified by K. Ivanova, D. Karadžova and A. Turilov as belonging to Laurentios’ legacy) could serve as important source for a partial reconstruction of his biography. Laurentios’ work presents him as a man-of-letters and editor who knew equally well the literary heritage and the contemporary literature, who had active social and moral position, who was distinguished for his great calligraphic skills, and who specialized in copying predominantly books for individual reading. It could be presumed that Laurentios worked in a hesychastic milieu that was related to institutions close to the Tsar, as well as to the Patriarch (it is quite possible that Laurentios was a member of a scribal community, supported financially by the highest representatives of the secular and church authorities). The author puts forward the hypothesis that Laurentios was approximately of the same age as Tsar John Alexander and belonged to the social stratum which is close to the court in Tărnovo. Zashev also suggests that Laurentios took care of a public library in the immediate proximity of the capital city and that the Sbornik of 1348 was a handbook used for the education of ruler’s children. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=125070 |

Кн. 53-54 (2016), стр. 195–214. | MODERN AND POPULAR: ON THE JUBILEE IMAGE OF ST. METHODIUS IN 20TH-CENTURY BULGARIAN CULTURE EWELINA DRZEWIECKA (SOFIA) (Abstract) The article analyzes the image of St. Methodius as it was documented in the Cyrillo-Methodian jubilee publications during the 20th century, understood here as “formative texts” (according to Jan Assman). The main question is why the figure of the older brother is not a site of memory. A cursory review of the material confirms that the interpretation of St. Methodius is always dependent on the current situation, but it also reveals that, regardless of the changing socio-political conditions and worldviews, he remains solely the mission’s facilitator. The article argues that there cannot be an autonomous place for St. Methodius because, in the cultural memory, the brothers’achievement is reduced to the creation of the alphabet. As an assistant dealing with church affairs, he does not fit in the (post) Enlightenment (modern) model of man as a genius artist (as does his brother). In conclusion, the author assets that the secularization of the Cyrillo-Methodian cult manifests itself on a deeper level: it is a modern cult par excellence, since its emphasis is not on catechization but culture, and on national culture in particular. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=476767 | |

| Евелина Минева | (Атина) – Молещият се исихаст в образа на пламък. Кн. 63-64 (2021), стр. 242–257. | THE PRAYING HESYCHAST IN THE IMAGE OF A FLAME Evelina Mineva (Abstract) This article examines several unique examples in the Byzantine and Old Bulgarian hagiographical literature of the fourteenth–fifteenth centuries, which reflect the spiritual state of the Hesychast offering the so-called Jesus Prayer or Prayer of the Heart, a new form of the “inner prayer” (νοερὰ προσευχή), originating from the early Christian hermitic practices, which found theological justification in the writings of Evagrius of Pontus (ca. 345–399/400). The reason for searching for its literary reflection is the famous passage from the Encomium in praise of Patriarch Euthymius of Turnovo by Gregory Tsamblak. It describes how Euthymius as a disciple of Theodosius of Turnovo saw his mentor in an unusual and even frightening condition: standing in his full stature, with his hands raised up and his eyes radiating such a strong light, as if it were a flame. This image in Tsamblak is unique in the Old Bulgarian literature of the period and has its parallel only in the Vitaе of the Athonite Hesychast, Maximos of Kapsokalyvia (ca. 1270/1280–ca. 1365/75), three of which were written by his followers and disciples, St Niphon of Kapsokalyvia (1315–1411), Theophanes, Metropolitan of Peritheorio, and Hieromonk Ioannikios Kochylas, and the most recent one by the Byzantine scholar Macarius Macres (1382/1383–7 Jan. 1431). Due to the differences in the specific details and circumstances in their descriptions, it was established that they were not the original source of Tsamblak. Influenced by the second of the three Triads (In Defense of the Holy Hesychasts) by Gregory Palamas, he chose as a model a very similar story about the hermit Arsenius from the alphabetical collection Apophthegmata Patrum (PG 65: 94 C). The fear and astonishment of those who see the flames of the praying recluses, and the fact that the ascetics themselves somehow deny what is seen, can be explained not only by the extremely metaphysical nature of what is happening and ascetic modesty, but also by the notion of an evil spirit sent from the devil, or by the influence of heretical ideas and practices. Especially in the Vitae of the fourteenth–fifteenth centuries the hermit's apparent indifference and even the ban on sharing what was seen was probably dictated by the writers' desire to prevent a reaction of disbelief, as well as the accusation of non-Orthodoxy, as Hesychasts were known to be accused by their opponents as Bogomils and Massalians because of similarities in their ascetic practices with these heretical movements.

Кн. 57-58 (2018), стр. 194–205. | HOW DOES PATRIARCH EYTHYMIUS REVISE AND REWORK BYZANTINE LIVES OF SAINTS? Evelina Mineva (Abstract) This publication stems from observations on two texts: the Encomion of St. Philothea of Temnitsa (Polivot), especially its inserted tale about the pious Amun, and the extended version of the Life of St. Paraskeva (Petka) of Tanovo. The author of the article claims that Patriarch Euthimius drew from a great number of Byzantine texts for each of his works, creating complex mosaics of different motifs and themes, never blindly following his sources. These findings make visible both the creative method of the Bulgarian writer and his excellent education, including his familiarity with Greek and Byzantine literature and his skills as a sophisticated reader. They also highlight the way the Patriarch left his personal imprint on his works, for example the hint, in the Life of Paraskeva, that he personally visited the holy spring at the tomb of St. Euthymius in Madytos. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=718619 | |

The episodes from the saint’s life are introduced almost in the same sequence as in the Vita and sometimes even use similar phrases. Such correspondences suggest that the canon is a translation from Byzantine Greek, and that the Byzantine vita here analyzed was probably the one brought and translated into Slavonic together with the encomium and the hymns for St. Paraskeva at the time of the transfer of her relics from Kallikrateia to the Bulgarian capital Tarnovo in the second quarter of 13th c. The Slavonic translation of the Vita was probably the basis for the composition of the oldest Slavonic canon. Unlike the oldest Slavonic canon, the extant Byzantine canon, written most likely in the 14th c., and its Slavonic translation both omit important hagiographic episodes and differ from the Vita in some details. These differences indicate either that, in the meantime, the vita had been shortened and revised or that it had lost its popularity after the 13th c. This assumption is confirmed by the fact that the early Byzantine hagiographic text has a very limited manuscript tradition: it is documented only in two fourteenth-century codices and its Slavonic translation has not yet been discovered. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=341261 | |

Кн. 48 (2013), стр. 196–209. | PROPOSALS FOR SANCTIFICATION IN THE 14-15TH CENTURIES – EXAMPLES FROM BYZANTINE, OLD BULGARIAN AND OLD SERBIAN LITERATURE EVELINA MINEVA (ATHENS) (Abstract) Тhe article discusses proposals for the official canonization of prominent personalities of the 14th and the 15th centuries in Byzantine, Old Bulgarian and Old Serbian literatures. These texts are the Canon in honor of the Patriarch of Constantinople Euthymios II (26.10.1410–29.03.1416), composed by Mark Eugenikos, bishop of Ephesus (1394/95–1446), the Life and the Office in honor of the same Mark Eugenikos, written by his brother John Eugenikos (1400-ca. 1457), the Encomium of the Patriarch of Tărnovo Euthymios (1320/30 – ca. 1402), written by Gregory Tsamblak (ca. 1364–1419/20), and the Life of the Serbian despot Stefan Lazarević (1370-1427), written by Constantine of Kostenets (ca. 1380 – first half of 15th c.) It should be noticed that the official canonization takes place long after the composition of the relevant texts – in the case of the Patriarch of Constantinople Euthymios II no official canonization takes place at all. The main reason for the postponement, or even the rejection of the proposed canonization, is that all these efforts come from the milieu of the Hesychasts. We should remember that the conflict between Hesychasts and Barlaamites did not end until the fall of Constantinople in 1453. Another reason may be that these proposals for the sanctification came from well-educated high clergy men or state officers and not from the people. The process of canonization might have been delayed due to the fact, that the relevant texts did not contain any miracles, while many historical episodes and facts were mentioned. Therefore these texts have several formal characteristics which do not follow the rules governing the literary genre of medieval hagiographical texts. It should be added that in some cases some texts obligatory for the cult had not yet been composed, for example the short synaxarium vita or the liturgical office in honor of the saint. The above mentioned stylistic and structural peculiarities may have been interpreted as reflecting the pre-renaissance tendencies of their authors; however those tendencies did not lead to a development of new kind of literature as it happened in Western Europe, due to the historically different situation of the Balkan lands in the 15th century. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=6943 |

According to the watermarks the codex has been dated to the second half of the fourteenth century. The object of study of this article is the Bulgarian part which contains the so-called “Pseudo-Zonaras’ Nomokanon” (“Zonar”/ “Zinar”). This legal and historical document is a collection of texts incorporating both church epitimia and secular punishments; it also regulates daily practices. Since the codex is corrupted and many folia are missing, the initial content is defined on the bases of comparison to other similar manuscripts. The author’s conclusion is that Xlud. 76 had invariable content which corresponds to a part of the Kormcaja from 1493. The existence of the Greek original excludes the possibility of Slavic origin; yet, it is possible that the texts were created especially for the inhabitants of the Balkans recently converted to Christianity in order to facilitate their adaptation to the new religion. The second (Serbian) part is an abridged collection of regulations based upon the Serbian “St. Sabas’ Kormcaja.” | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=81378 |

It also studies them with the preservation of the tradition in early liturgical calendar and texts from the (ninth) tenth to fourteenth centuries in mind. The paper deliberates on the possible origin of the explanatory texts attached to calendar dates. Finally, it discusses (e) the revisions, the editorial changes in the contents and the composition of the texts in the macro-generic structure of “the Psalter with addenda.” These manuscripts are crucial for the study of the compilation and the composition of Slavonic liturgical books and their Byzantine sources.

The Prologue text about the translation of the relics of St. Hilarion of Maglen and his Life written by Patriarch Euthymios of Tarnovo were widely spread in Bulgaria and in the rest of the Orthodox commonwealth. From the late fourteenth to the first half of the sixteenth century these literary works were used as Bulgarian sources for the Medieval history of the Balkans and were included in the Russian chronicle from 1512. Thus new Russian redactions appeared and were spread also in miscellanies of various contents. The new redactions reflect the antiheretical tendencies and the reactions against the Novgorod-Moscow heresy at the end of the fifteenth century. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=81387 | |

Typologically, the latter belongs to the group of the Christian warrior saints, such as St George the Great Martyr, St Theodore Stratelates, St Theodore Teron, etc. The core motif of the Life of St Michael the Warrior – saint’s victory over a dragon – is wide-spread both in the folklore all over the world and in the literary tradition of Orthodox Christians. The article offers a review of the text history of St Michael’s Prologue Life in Bulgarian, Serbian, Russian, and Moldo-Wallachian manuscript traditions of the fourteenth-seventeenth centuries. Text-critical observations are made on the basis of 58 witnesses of the work (20 Bulgarian, 12 Serbian, 23 Russian, and 3 Moldavian) kept in archives in Bulgaria, Serbia, Russia, Romania, Croatia, and Slovenia. The results of the research presented refer to the following: 1) the calendar date under which the text was copied; 2) the type of the miscellanies it was included in; 3) the existence of Prologue verses attached to the Life; 4) the literary centres and literary traditions the copies’ origin is related to. | http://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=211005 | |

Кн. 41–42 (2009), стр. 427–440. | BULGARIAN NAPEL/RАSPEV IN UKRAIN AND ON THE BALKANS ELENA TONCHEVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) In Ukrainian and Belarusian manuscripts from the end of the 16th and throughout the 17th and 18th centuries and in Russian manuscripts (starting from the 17th century) a large musical repertoire was notated using the Kievan quadratic staff notation and associated with the ethnonym “Bulgarian” (i.e. Bolgarsky Napel/Raspev – Bulgarian chant). Three Heirmologia from the 17th and 18th centuries with such repertoire are located it in the Great Skit Monastery (Eastern Carpathians) – a centre of this “Bulgarian singing”. After discovering the first Slavonic Balkan musical records with late Byzantine notation dating from the 15th and 16th centuries (after a long period of oral tradition) the idea was formed to conduct a comparative research between chants with parallel texts (in Greek and Slavonic) notated whit the two notations – late Byzantine and Kievan staff notation. On the basis of such parallel transcription close resemblances between the melodies were presented. These results suggested that Balkan musical notated sources for the Ukrainian Bolgarskij napel were discovered. The question posed in this study is how the two practices of Bulgarian chant – on the Balkans and in Ukraine – are informative in terms of modal (echos) characteristics. The conclusions, based on comparative study of two versions of the automelon ‘Oi anggelikai…” in the 6th (2 th plagal) mode (from the Skit Heirmologia and from the late Byzantine bilingual MS Athens 928 – Žegligovo anthology from the 15th century) are the following: 1. In the Ukrainian “Bulgarian” singing repertoire various modal (psalmodic) melodic patterns, characteristic of the Balkans, have been known and used, and 2. the modal characteristic of the Balkan Slavonic singing in the 6th mode is diatonic – not chromatic – as it is in later modal Byzantine systematizations. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=123521 | |

Кн. 67-68 (2023), стр. 154-167. | ANOTHER FRAGMENT OF THE ZHERAVNA TRIODION Elissaveta Moussakova Keywords: Zheravna Triodion; Neophyte of Rila; Koprivshtitsa; Slavonic manuscripts; fragments Abstract: The Zheravna Triodion is a late thirteenth- or early fourteenth-century fragmented manuscript well known to scholarship. Three of its fragments, those kept in the National Library in Sofia – NBKM 574, NBKM 935, NBKM 1379 – make up a total of 20 folios. Another five fragments have found their way to the libraries in St Petersburg: three of them are in the Library of the Russian Academy of Sciences and two in the National Library of Russia. A search in the digital library of the Ivan Vazov National Library in Plovdiv has led to the discovery of yet another fragment of the manuscript, apparently previously unidentified by researchers. This article provides a brief description of the new fragment whose history remains obscure. In addition, an attempt is made to shed a little more light on the history of the fragments and, in particular, of the Sofia fragment NBKM 1379, in which an inscription of 1839 has not been the subject of much attention until now. The author offers some observations, on the basis of which it is assumed that the fragment was in the possession of Father Neophyte of Rila, or that it was at his disposal at least for some time. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=1198314 | |

Кн. 61-62 (2020), стр. 139-160. | TEXT AND VISUAL LANGUAGE IN THE RADOMIR PSALTER Elissaveta Moussakova (Abstract) In the Radomir Psalter script and illumination act together to make a powerful visual and psychological impact on the viewer. In analyzing their modus operandi, the paper focuses on the paleographical features and the most striking imagery in the decoration, involving representations of human hands, snakes/dragons and birds. This selection of motifs has its focal point in the large-scale composition on f. 167r, showing a heraldic couple of monstrous birds (or flying dragons), intertwined with a couple of snakes/dragons. Assuming the double function of a headpiece and tailpiece, it marks the end of the Psalter where djak Radomir left his colophon and the beginning of the added “Story about Saul Chasing David.” The latter, still not properly studied, is considered an original Slavonic literary work. Its highly emotional content, when juxtaposed to the scribe’s note asking ‘readers’ to commemorate his father, suggests a very personal reason behind the creation of this manuscript. The study of the ornaments reveals encoded apocalyptic – and respectively soteriological – notions uniting in a single verbal and visual complex the devotional character of the book of psalms and a private prayer for mercy and salvation. In a broader socio-historical perspective, the manuscript’s illumination suggests that the book was created at a time when thirteenth-century Bulgarian society feared yet again the coming of the ‘last days’. In that respect, the author raises the open question to what extent the spread of the visual language so characteristic for the illumination of thirteenth-fourteenth century South- and East Slavonic manuscripts and usually termed ‘teratological style’ or ‘teratological ornament’ might have been prompted by such a collective sensibility. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=913137 | |

Кн. 55-56 (2017), стр. 140–155. | DJAK VLADKO AND OTHERS (MANUSCRIPTS FROM THE SOFIA LITERARY CIRCLE, 16TH CENTURY) ELISSAVETA MOUSSAKOVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) This paper, initially read as a public lecture required by the procedure for academic promotion, brings into focus the manuscripts of the sixteenth-century scribe djak Vladko. They have been the subject of a long-term study, whose conclusive results have not yet been published, and which raises methodological questions about combining paleographical, codicological, and art historical approaches. The scribe’s name is registered in a Psalter and two Gospels, written with the same cryptograph in the latter manuscripts. As none of the three sources has a precise or fully reliable date of origin, the established chronological range for them is unrealistically wide: between the first quarter of the 16th century and 1598. Hence, it is of vital importance to investigate the watermarks of the key witness, the Psalter, which contains the name of the scribe, the place of origin (Sofia), and even the date, albeit written by a later hand and hardly readable. Unfortunately, the manuscript is inaccessible to the author, since it is kept in the Monastery Iveron on Mt. Athos. In the course of paleographical, art historical and, to a lesser degree, codicological analyses, it became evident that the signed Pljevlja Gospels cannot be attributed to djak Vladko – the signature is most probably a copy, although the reason for such “mystification” is unclear. The Serbian scholars who have studied the manuscript have somehow overlooked the name of the real scribe, djak Dimitar, and his relation to djak Vladko remains obscure. To make the story even more complicated, a later note in a sixteenth-century Triodion identifies a priest Vladko as one of its scribes, while the handwriting reveals similarities with the Psalter and with four more manuscripts that belong to the same group. A crucial problem arises: the difficulty, if not the impossibility, of deciding at which point a changeable handwriting, as observed even in the copies signed by Vladko, ceases to be an identifying feature. In the final analysis, all new valuable knowledge about the Sofia literary center notwithstanding, djak Vladko’s work, rather than being confirmed, turns into a provocation: how to define who is ‘the one’ and who are ‘the others’. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=588448 | |

Кн. 41–42 (2009), стр. 114–120. | ON THE LITURGICAL COMPOSITION OF THE OLD BULGARIAN GOSPEL LECTIONARIES ELISSAVETA MOUSSAKOVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) The source of this article is a work in progress on the ornamental marking of the liturgical content in Gospel lectionaries acknowledged as Bulgarian. Here the observations are limited to the arrangement of the lecture-cycles with variable position in the Old Bulgarian manuscripts Codex Assemanianus (As), Vatican Palimpsest (Vat), and Book of Priest Sava (Sav). The Passion Gospels in As and Sav follow the readings on Maundy Thursday, while in Vat they follow the Menologion. At the same time the liturgical address of the cycle in As points to a tradition different from that testified by Vat and Sav. A critical survey of the edition of Vat permits to argue that the Hours make no part of the extant text. Possibly, the cycle once followed the Menologion together with the Passion Gospels. If true, Vat must be considered as the predecessor of a small group of Bulgarian lectionaries showing the same cycle. Without pretending to be complete, parallels to Greek lectionaries are given along with the cases under discussion, though they should also be subjected to further analyses. The arrangement of the Morning Resurrection and the Passion Gospels in Vat is comparable to Vat. Gr. 353, a codex with intriguing history. It has been claimed that the distribution of the cycles with changeable position in the Gospel lectionary has no relevance to the textological or liturgical recension of the copies. Nevertheless, searching among the Byzantine Gospel lectionaries for compositional analogues of the Bulgarian versions is reasonable insofar as it might disclose the sources of the earliest Slavonic version of this book. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=123519 | |
| Елисавета Мусакова | (София) – Йоан Кръстител побеждава змея. Кн. 33–34 (2005), стр. 275–288. | SAINT JOHN THE BAPTIST DEFEATS THE DRAGON ELISSAVETA MOUSSAKOVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) The author offers a three-level interpretation of the illustrative initial in Codex Assemanianus painted at the lecture for 24 June, the holiday commemorating the Birth of St John the Baptist. The peculiarity of this initial comes from the combination of St John’s image as a young red-hair man and that of a dragon, placed respectively in the bow and on the stem of the letter. As the event of Baptism is emblematic for the unique role of St John it is the obvious reason why an abbreviated version of its representation was chosen to illustrate the text. This is the first, biblical level on which the common viewer “reads” the images. On the second level of understanding they are seen in the light of the Christian celebration of the summer solstice and the solar symbolism of St John elaborated by the Church writers, St Clement of Ohrid in particular. The final step however is to reveal the basic idea which had to endure a transformation under the spreading Christianity in the Balkan. Therefore on the third level the viewer is encouraged to draw a parallel between St John, his folklore counterpart Enyo and their pagan ancestor Apollo. It is thus demonstrated how even a small piece of medieval art is grasped by a contemporary mind as a multi-cultural complex. | http://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=211001 | |

The analysis concerns all the fragments but is mostly concentrated on the two of them kept in SS. Cyril and Methodius National Library, nos. 499 and 500 which have been examined de visu. The characteristics of the decoration, orthography, and text show interplay of more archaic and more innovative features, for instance there are both archaic lexical readings and Preslavisms. The Apostolos is closer to the Slepche Apostolos and Matica Srpska Apostolos. The Manuil Apostolos is likely to have been written in an eastern (or northeastern) Bulgarian scriptorium in the second half of the thirteenth century. | http://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=211024 |

LEVSHINA (SANKT-PETERBURG) (Abstract) The project “Liturgical Heritage of Orthodox Church” aims at the introduction of forgotten, unknown and newly written hymns into liturgical practice. They are dedicated to church feasts and saints, both universal and local. The final goal of the project is to compile a Festal Menaion in Church Slavonic which will contain texts that are not present in the so-called “Green” Moscow Festal Menaion of 1978-1979. The project started in 1998 and since then numerous texts in manuscripts and early printed books written in various languages used in the Orthodox world have been examined and translated into Church Slavonic. Some of these hymns have been already implemented in church practice. In the present article are reported the most important results of the archeographical and textual work with manuscripts and early printed books in Russia, Bulgaria, Serbia, Montenegro, Greece, and other countries. The materials collected exceed the volume of the “Green” Menaion. The huge material collected required elaboration of well-grounded criteria for selection of texts to be published. These criteria are based on detailed textual analysis of the mosaic structures of the hymnic works studied. In this analysis, a new method was used for comparison of similar sources by distribution of the incipits of hymnic units in tables. This type of textological analysis of similar hymnic sources with mosaic structures is demonstrated in the paper on the units for September 3. The texts chosen for publication are edited in accordance with the norms and rules of the present-day liturgical rites and Church Slavonic. The editors aim at greater comprehensibility, euphony, theological faithfulness, and correspondence to the present-day Russian Typikon. In result, various hymns dating from different periods can be included in the present-day liturgy conducted in Church Slavonic. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=103938 |

It presents new information about copies of texts dedicated Balkan saints included in these codices. The authors point out the importance of the copies of Bulgarian Patriarch Euthymios’ textual corpus which were made by the monks in Romanian principalities of Wallachia and Moldavia in the 15th-16th centuries, as these copies often present the earliest preserved witnesses of Euthymios’ literary legacy. The two scholars also discuss other texts concerning Balkan sainthood and Bulgarian history that have survived in manuscripts housed in the Library of Academy in Bucharest, such as Paisij of Hilandar’s Istorija slavenobolgarskaja and a Synaxarion narrative about the martyrs who died in the battle between the Byzantine Emperor Nicephorus Gennicus and the Bulgarian Khan Krum in the summer of 811 (which was part of the Verse Prolog/ Synaxarion translated in Tărnovo). | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=103939 |

It presents one of the arguments for the identifi cation of the Early Mediaeval Bulgarians with the New Israel in the époque just following the evangelization of the country. There Bulgarian lands are presented as a replica of the Holy Land in geographical point of view: this is a fertile land situated between two waters (a sea and a big river). It is to stress also the manner how the People entered in the “Promised land” – through the river, with God’s help, led by a prophet. Some traits of this “liturgical conquest” could be discovered also in mediaeval Bulgarian literature. In author’s opinion this is another evidence in favour of the strong Old Testament basis of the Apocryphal Chronicle and of the creation of the Holy-Scripture-based-identity of the Bulgarians in the Early Middle Ages. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=123549 |

For our symbolists – just like the medieval hesychasts five centuries before them – preferred the apophatic way of expression: besides assigning special function to the negative lexical forms, they also conveyed any action, or state, through passive or reflexive verbs mainly; hardly ever did logical and grammatical subjects coincide. The stylistic correspondences were undoubtedly underlain by certain ideological similarities. And even if the symbolists confessed that they lacked the Divine Grace, to contemplate perfection as well as to long for turning back to the primordial state was not less characteristic of them than of the hesychasts. | http://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=211013 | |

ILIEV (SOFIA) (Abstract) The subject of this article is the origin and dissemination of a short fragment containing the name of the Prophet Daniel. The author examines the fragment’s relation to the complete translation of St. Jerome’s Commentary on the Book of Daniel and reviews the reception of this Old Testament book in Eastern Europe together with its use in Slavonic miscellanies as a new source for literary interpretations. The fragment appears in Slavonic manuscripts of Russian, Western Russian, and Moldovian origin from the 13th through the beginning of the 17th century. It even appears in a document from the collection of the Greek-Catholic Chapter in Przemyśl (Poland), which further testifies to its wide dissemination. Comparisons of this fragment with other works reveal not only discrepancies in the Greek sources’ rendering of Biblical verses, but also variations in the language preferences of the different translators. The text illustrates a variety of compilation techniques for creating medieval miscellanies and points to preferred sources for creating new works. It is a compilation of heterogeneous works aimed to satisfy readers’ curiosity and prepare its audience for the arrival of the Antichrist | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=588440 |

It was written in the Constantinople monastery of Christ Pantocrator built by her. The anonymous Vita came into existence soon after she was canonized, around the mid of the 12th c. The time of its composing is situated between 1143 (as the death of the emperor John II Comnenos is mentioned at the end of the text) and 1180 (the death of emperor Manuel Comnenos). There are two redactions of the Vita in the Greek tradition. It can be found in the Synaxaria for the second half of the year (under the date of 13th August). There are other copies of the Vita in the August Menaia with verse Synaxaria under the same date. In Bulgaria it was translated as a part of the Verse Prolog for August; it is known in numerous manuscripts (Bulgarian, Serbian and Russian) under the same date. At the same time, there is a copy of the saint’s life in a Moldavian Menologion from the Russian State Library (fund 178, № 3171) under the date of 24th January – the day of St. Xenia of Rome. The manuscript is the only Slavonic codex in which the life functions as a reading from a Menologion. The Slavonic text is without any doubt a translation of a version very close to the full redaction of the Greek text. All Slavonic copies seem to have originated from one translation. This translation is correct in certain parts while there are passages which the Bulgarian translator had seemingly not understood or had missed. There are passages showing a freer interpretation or even deliberate changes in the text. The Greek and the Slavonic texts are published in the two Appendices. The Greek one – according to its full redaction, and the Slavic one – according to its oldest copy from the Zograph Monastery with variations based on the Moscow manuscript (№ 3171). | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=103944 |

TEXTS AND REPRESENTATIONS Ivanka Gergova (Abstract) The legendary story of the Athonite Dochiariou Monastery is associated with the protection and help of the Holy archangels. The body of narratives has continued to grow over time to take on its final form in the early sixteenth century. The earliest extant texts are Slavonic translations associated with the pen of Vladislav the Grammarian (the second half of the fifteenth century). A bilingual (in Greek and Slavonic) manuscript of the late fifteenth century is kept at Dochiariou, providing an account of the miracles worked by the archangels at the monastery. Versions of the Dochiariou legends were gaining currency in Russia to be included in the reading menaia, synaxaria and panegyrika. Thesaurus by Damascenus Studites played a significant role in the popularity of the miracles. Proskynetarion of 1843, published in Dochiariou, gave a detailed account of the miracles. The earliest representations of the Dochiariou miracles have been lost, though there are written records of their existence of the fourteenth century. The full cycle of the miracles is illustrated at the catholicon of Dochiariou as well as at the refectory and on the phiale. The monastery published also a series of prints circulating the main scenes of the Dochiariou cycle and rendering them generally available. The earliest in Bulgaria illustration of the miracle with the boy rescued from drowning is at the Church of the Nativity in Arbanassi (1640s). Three of the scenes from the cycle occur on a series of icons of the Archangel Michael with scenes of the miracles of the archangels painted in the late eighteenth and throughout the nineteenth centuries. An analysis showed that they had been inspired by Damascenus Studites’s Thesaurus. The murals at two churches within the complex of Bachkovo Monastery (of the Holy Archangels and the church of the same name in Kluviata locality) include cycles of scenes of the Dochiariou miracles, modelled on a 1809 Dochiariou print. The emblematic scene depicting the rescue of the boy from the waves is found on iconostases painted by masters from Debar in the late nineteenth-century Bulgaria’s northwest. A woodcarver, possibly coming from Debar too, sculpted the episode of translating the treasure at the church of the village of Teshevo, the region of Gotse Delchev.

Кн. 48 (2013), стр. 247–257. | “BULGARISATION” OF SAINTS IVANKA GERGOVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) As a rule, the ethnic origins of the saints do not influence the establishment, dissemination, and popularity of their cults. Yet, there are some historical circumstances in which the ethnicity of the saints is underlined. The cases of “Bulgarisation” of saints reveal alteration of the emphases of their cults. The claims from the Second Bulgarian Kingdom that the father of St. Demetrius of Thessaloniki was Bulgarian and that Constantine-Cyril and Methodius were of Bulgarian origin represented two early cases of this kind. Both claims seem to have been due to ideological motifs although they are likely to have occurred in different social strata. During the Ottoman period, new attitudes toward saints had been developed. Since in that period the ethnicity was identified with the religious denomination, the origin of the saints was not that important for different ethnic environments. Quite different are the ideas of the Bulgarian National Revival at the beginning of which, in 1862, Paisij of Hilandar emphasized the Bulgarian national ideals. Part of his national (and political) program is the chapter in his Istorija slavenobolgarskaja dedicated to the saints of Bulgarian origin. In his list of Bulgarian saints, there are both saints of Bulgarian origin and saints to whom Bulgarian origin was additionally attributed. In the middle of the 19th century, particularly in the Bulgarian calendars with special sections on the Bulgarian saints, the number of saints with “Bulgarian origin” increased. Such saints and their imaged appeared also in other sources of that period. This tendency is a reflection of the struggle of the Bulgarian Church for independence. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=6940 |

The purpose of the paper is to highlight the literary and cultural aspects of the topic rather than to present a strict art historical analysis. The reasons and the distribution of East Slavic saints icons in Bulgarian territory as well as their meaning in historical context related to Bulgarian society constitute the main focus of present study. Images of East Slavic saints can be seen in the major citadels of spiritual life during the Bulgarian Revival period – Rila, Troyan and Preobrazhenie monasteries, also in Beliova church near Samokov, St George church in Dolni Lozen village, The Assumption of the Holy Mother church in Saparevo village, St Nikola church in Topolnica village, the monastery of village of German, The Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary church in the town of Panagiurishte and the Metropolitan church of Assumption of the Holy Mother in the town of Samokov. The wall paintings and icons in these temples were created by Bulgarian iconographers, who belonged to Samokov painting school, such as Ivan Obrazopisov, Dimitar Zograf, Zachari Zograf, Nikola Obrazopisov and his assistants Christo Zachariev, Dimitar Christov, Christo Georgiev and Kosta Gerov, the brothers Nikola and Ivan Dospevski. Among the producers of the images, there were supposedly some representatives of Razlog-Bansko painting school, as well as less known local artists like Milosh Jakovlevich and Marko Minov. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=6939 | |

It was in this region, defined as the authentic hub of South-Slavic literature, where Slavic hermits lived as early as the tenth and eleventh centuries. Both written records and oral tradition about their lives date back to a very distant past. The cults of the hermits who were proclaimed saints - St John of Rila (946), St Prochorus of Pčinja (the 11th c.), St Gabriel of Lesnovo (the 11th c.) and St Joachim of Osogovo (the 11th -12th c.), as well as St. Peter of Korisha (the 12th, possibly the early 13th c.) - were established very early. Some texts dedicated to these anchorets were definitely written soon after their death, as by the end of the 13th century there were already witnesses in the written tradition – namely, vitae of St John of Rila, St Gabriel of Lesnovo and St Prochorus of Pčinja), as well as church services dedicated to St. John of Rila and St. John of Osogovo. The earliest works on St. Peter of Korisha also belong to the thirtheenth-century literary tradi¬tion. This paper looks at the oldest texts dedicated to these South Slavic hermits and analyses their inter-relations. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=103927 | |

Another Office for St. Symeon (according to the Jerusalem Typikon) was composed by the Hilandar monk Theodosios. It is not clear when exactly this second piece was written. Yet it is probable that less than a century passed between the compilation of Sava’s and Teodosios’ Offices. Thus it is possible that the new hymnographic piece dedicated to St. Symeon was created before the end of the thirteenth century. The manuscript tradition of the Office is rich —more than thirty copies are known, the oldest of them dating from the fourteenth century. The article deals with the oldest preserved transcripts, namely those from the fourteenth century— MS II 109 from the collection of the Trinity Monastery, Plevlja, dating from the 1350/1360; MS 126 from the Hilandar Monastery from the middle of the fourteenth century; MS 11, a Service Menaion for February from the Archive of the Serbian Academy of Science and Arts from 1380s-1390s; and MS Cod. slave 21, a Menaion for February from the National Library in Paris from the last decade of the fourteenth century. | http://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=211033 |

Кн. 33–34 (2005), стр. 341–355. | A SOUTH SLAVIC ANTHOLOGY OF WISE SENTENCES PANARET IRINA KUZIDOVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) The translated Gnomologion Panaret is not very popular sacro-profane collection of wise sentences. With the exception of the copy in MS 159 from the Museum of the Serbain Orthodox Church (fifteenth century), mentioned by M. N. Speranskij, the anthology is known also by the evidence in MS III/111 from Odessa State Scientific Library (dating from 1456) – the so-called „Predeli“ collection by Vladislav the Grammarian. The study of Panaret reveals an identical translation, but a different structure in both copies (because of the loss of folia). The anthology probably springs from the above-mentioned compilation of symmetrical excerpts from the Proverbs, the Wisdom of Sirach and from „Mellisa“ by Pseudo-Maximos, but the title refers only to the biblical books. The translation of „Mellisa“ in Panaret is without reference to the Russian „Mellisa“, but it reveals lexical and grammatical similarities with a Serbian copy of an excerpt from Pseudo-Maximos (again in MS 159 from the Museum of the Serbain Orthodox Church) which is related to the Bulgarian „Mellisa“ (in Cod. Paris. 26). The anthology appears together with similar kind of texts (another gnomological or erotapokritical works) in some encyclopaedic codices. The appearance of the collection could be related to the cultural circle in Resava as a result of the intensive literary work during the reign of Stephan Lazarevic. The Gnomologion Panaret is known only during the fifteenth century. It could be viewed as one more example of the interrelation between Bulgarian and Serbian literatures at that period. | http://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=211009 |

The odes are composed of two or three troparia which follow different heirmoi. This canon has an early Old Bulgarian translation, which went through several revisions. The article provides a comparison of nine Slavonic copies of this canon, whereby four Slavonic redactions can be distinguished. The first redaction is represented in the Dragota Menaion, the Sinai Menaion and the Ohrid Menaion. In this redaction, the second ode is missing and the odes consist of four troparia each. The second redaction is represented in the Menaion of Dobrian, the Menaion of Dragan, the Palauzov Menaion and Menaion Khludov 166 (kept in the State Historical Museum in Moscow). The second ode was added in this redaction, and so were several troparia (from three to five) in each ode. The third redaction is represented in the East Slavic menaia Sin 895, kept in the State Historical Museum in Moscow, and Sof 206, kept in the Russian National Library in St Petersburg. It is based on the second redaction, but does not contain the second ode. In this redaction, the texts of the troparia are revised and the sixth, seventh and ninth odes are composed of troparia which are different from those in the South Slavic menaia and follow different heirmoi. The fourth redaction is represented in Manuscript No. 2/8 from the Rila Monastery and in all new-redaction menaia (i.e., menaia structured according to the Jerusalem typikon and composed mainly during and after the fourteenth century in Tarnovo or on Mount Athos), including printed Church Slavonic menaia which are used in liturgy to this day. In it the second ode is missing, and the third, fourth, sixth, seventh and eighth odes are composed of troparia which are different from those in the old-redaction menaia (structured according to the old Studite typikon and composed before the fourteenth century) and follow different heirmoi. The text of the first and fifth odes is based on the second redaction, with some revisions. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=1198313 | |

Кн. 65-66 (2022), стр. 49–98. | THE COMMON OFFICES BY ST CLEMENT OF OHRID IN MANUSCRIPT UNDOL’SKII 100 Iskra Hristova-Shomova (Sofia) Abstract Manuscript Undol’skii 100 is kept in the Collection of Vukol M. Undol’skii in the Russian State Library. This is a Festal Menaion of the mid-fifteenth century. The Common Offices are on ff. 214b–224c. They were discovered by Blagoy Shalamanov in 1987. He noted his discovery in five consecutive publications but did not publish the full texts of the offices. Thus, this is the first complete publication of the copy of the Common Offices in Undol’skii’s manuscript. There are three other copies of the Common Offices by Clement of Ohrid: (1) in Codex Hankenstein (kept in Vienna, Slav. 37) of the thirteenth century, there are six offices: for a prophet, for an apostle, for a Church Father, for a reverend, for a male martyr, and for a female martyr; (2) in the fourteenth-century manuscript 1052 from the Sofia Collection of the Russian National Library (St Petersburg), only the offices for a male martyr and for a prophet are attested; (3) in the Ohrid Menaion of 1435, four of the offices are extant: for a prophet, for an apostle, for a Church Father, and for a reverend. The comparison between the Common Offices in Undol’skii 100 and the copies in the other three codices shows that only the canons of Clement’s offices have been preserved in this manuscript (the stichera and the kathismata have been replaced with different texts), and moreover, that they have partially been changed: some troparia have been omitted, and some of the theotokia have been replaced. While the canons for a prophet, for an apostle, for a Church Father, and for a male martyr are preserved in Undol’skii 100, the canon for St Euthymius the Great by Clement of Ohrid is used for the canon for a reverend. Further, the texts of the canons in Undol’skii 100 contain errors or new variant readings, but in some instances keep the correct variant, used in the initial, original text of the Old Bulgarian author. The juxtaposition of the texts of the offices in the four manuscripts allows us to divide them into two distinct textual families, each with its common variants and errors. One of them encompasses Codex Hankenstein and the Ohrid Menaion, while the other consists of mss Sofia 1052 and Undol’skii 100.

So far, the Second South Slavic redaction has not been studied in detail. This article is an attempt to characterize it on the base of the Zagreb Synaxarium (Zagrebski Prolog). Eight texts from the Zagreb Synaxarium are published and compared to the corresponding texts in the Sofiyski Prolog and the Lesnovski Prolog. For four of these texts parallels are provided also from the manuscript Wuk 37 (Berlin Staatsbibliothek), another exemplar of the second South Slavic redaction. In all cases, the comparison reveals considerable differences between the redactions. Sometimes there is exchange of synonyms, in other cases the same idea is expressed by two different phrases, so it seems that there are two different translations from similar sources. Occasionally, the text in the second redaction is much longer than the text in the first redaction, the second including episodes missing from the first. A question arises: Are we dealing with two redactions or with two different translations? The author is inclined to support the idea that these are two redactions based on the same primary text. Тwo reasons support this hypothesis. First, some parts of the texts are identical in the two groups of manuscripts. Second, there are mistakes common for all South Slavic manuscripts of both redactions. This means that the South Slavic manuscripts are secondary to the East Slavic ones and that all South Slavic manuscripts come from one Old Russian manuscript that already featured the corresponding errors. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=913148 | |

Кн. 55-56 (2017), стр. 40–73. | SERMON ON THE ENTRY OF THE THEOTHOKOS INTO THE TEMPLE BY THEOPHYLAKTOS OF BULGARIA AND ITS SLAVONIC TRANSLATION ISKRA HRISTOVA-SHOMOVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) The first part of the article discusses the content and stylistic features of the Sermon. It is strictly catechetic and contains no epideictic rhetorical turns. Its central theme is the journey of humankind toward the temple and the role of the Christian temple in a human life. The article’s second part focuses on the Slavonic translation of the Sermon. Its earliest extant copy is found in MS no. 107 from the Zograph monastery on Mount Athos and dates from the last quarter of the 14th century. The Slavic translator demonstrates excellent linguistic competence and a good stylistic sense. He uses some rare lexemes registrated also in liturgical books that had been revised in the 14th century in accord with the Jerusalem Typicon. The vocabulary of the Sermon’s Slavonic translation is thus representative of texts written in the 14th century in Bulgaria and the Balkans. The article includes a publication of the Slavonic text according to Zograph 107, with a parallel edition of its Greek original. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=588424 | |

Кн. 51 (2015), стр. 54–74. | THE AKATHISTOS OF THE THEOTOKOS AND THE OFFICE OF THE ANNUNCIATION ISKRA HRISTOVA-SHOMOVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) The Akathistos of Theotokos is closely related to the feast of the Annunciation: it was sung on this day for many centuries and it was inscribed in the kondakaria under the date 25 March. Nowadays the Akathistos is included in the Triodia books on the fifth Saturday of the Great Lent, but its first two stanzas (the kukulion and the first oikos) are used in the Office of the Annunciation as kondakion and oikos. The third kondakion of the Akathistos was also included in the Office of the Annunciation in two Bulgarian manuscripts: the early twelfth century Dragota Menaion and the Ochrid Menaion from 1435. Most probably, this is a trace of an old practice of including the first three kondakia and oikoi in this office. The entire text of the Akathistos is incorporated after the sixth song of the canon in the Office of the Annunciation in an Old Russian office menaion for March, kept in RGADA, in the collection of the Synodal Typography, under no. 106. In addition, the article provides a comparison among the texts of the stanzas included in the Office of the Annunciation in twelve Slavonic (Bulgarian, Serbian and Russian) menaia, three Bulgarian triodia, and one Russian kondakarion. The manuscripts divide into two groups, which reflect two different translations of those texts. The first consists of four South Slavic manuscripts: the Dragota Menaion, the thirteenth century Festal Menaion Hludov 166, the fourteenth century Festal Menaion Sinai 25, and the Ochrid Menaion. Most probably the earliest translation of the hymnographic units was represented in those four Festal menaia. The second group consists of the other menaia and the triodia. Presumably, these menaia contained the secondary version of the Office, in which the stanzas from the Akathistos were revised according to the text in the Triodion. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=341242 | |
| Искра Христова - Шомова | (София) – Св. Теодор Тирон и трансформациите на неговия култ. Кн. 48 (2013), стр. 9–27. | ST. THEODORE TYRON AND TRANSFORMATIONS OF HIS CULT ISKRA HRISTOVA-SHOMOVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) The article studies the representation of the cult of St. Theodore of Amasea (known better as St. Theodore Tyron) in Orthodox Christian calendars, narratives, offices, religious images and in the folk culture. The article provides an overview of the Greek texts (vitae, sermons, offices), dedicated to St. Theodore, written in the period from the fifth to the tenth centuries, and of their Slavic translations, kept in manuscripts from the twelfth to the fifteenth centuries. The veneration of St. Theodore Tyron started as a typical cult of a martyr, who was persecuted in the early period of the Christianity. However, when St. Theodore miraculously appeared in the dream of the archbishop Eudoxios warning him and the citizens of Constantinople not to eat the food contaminated with sacrificial blood on the order of Julian the Apostate, the saint obtained a special place of celebration in the Christian calendar on the first Saturday of the Great Lent. His cult began to acquire new dimensions; he was revered as a glorious soldier, as well as a victorious dragon-slayer (draconomachos). His cult became even stronger and more popular when his twin saint appeared: St. Theodore Stratelates, who had similar characteristics and was celebrated in February on a date close to St. Theodore Tyron’s feast, as well as in June. The most conservative among the texts dedicated to St. Theodore Tyron are the hymnographic works, in which he is revered only as a martyr. Indeed, there is an exapostilarion, in which he is said to have destroyed a three-headed dragon, but most probably this is a rather common trope presenting the victory over paganism and might not be connected with his celebration as a dragon-slayer. In the narratives, new episodes were added, and on the frescoes, he was usually depicted together with his twin St. Theodore Stratelates as a pair of saints-soldiers. In the 19th century he was included in a new iconographic scheme and was depicted riding on a horse together with three other soldiers-riders. In the Balkan folk tradition he is revered as a holy rider, who changes the winter into spring and unlocks the spring waters. His feast was accompanied by a system of prohibitions, but in the most modern time the old customs are more and more forgotten and the horse races take central place in the feast. The twin character of the cult is demonstrated further in the existing of the feasts of St. Theodore of Winter on the Orthodox Saturday and St. Theodore of Summer on the 8th of June (the feast of St. Theodore Stratelates). | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=6921 | |

Кн. 45–46 (2012), стр. 116–143. | THE BYZANTINE SERVICE TYPIKA AND THEIR SLAVONIC REPLICAE ISKRA HRISTOVA-SHOMOVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) The term Typikon and its meanings are discussed in the article and the difference between the Monastic and Service Typika is explained. The significant role of the Byzantine Lectionaries (Aprakos Gospels and Apostoloi) is discussed as well. Further, three Byzantine Service Typika are described: a) the Typikon of the Great Church, which was used in the parish liturgy in the 9th and partly in the 10th century; b) the Typikon of the Studion Monastery, which was used since the 10th century both in the monasteries and in the town churches; c) the Jerusalem Typikon, which became mandatory for the Greek churches from the 13th century. At first, the Lectionaries, especially the Aprakos Apostoloi, contained the Synaxaria of the Service Typika, so the Typikon of the Great Church and the Studion Typikon were preserved mainly in Apostoloi. Later, the Synaxaria of the Jerusalem Typikon were imbedded in Psalters. In the article some examples of the Slavic replicae of the Greek Typika are cited which prove that the Typikon of the Great Church was translated in the earliest age of the Slavic Christianity, most probably by the Holy Brothers Cyril and Methodios. The problem of the existence of a book called Tropologion in the early period in medieval Bulgaria is discussed in connection with the Studion Typikon and its use. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=196291 | |

Кн. 41–42 (2009), стр. 87–104. | A WESTERN SAINT IN THE ORTHODOX WORLD: ST. MARTIN OF TOURS IN MEDIAEVAL CHURCH CALENDARS ISKRA HRISTOVA-SHOMOVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) St. Martin does not appear among the main saints of the Byzantine tradition. His Greek Vita was written in the 8th or 9th century and is preserved in approximately ten copies. There are only two manuscripts (both of Italo-Greek origin) with his Greek service. Furthermore, there are two different short (synaxarion) Greek Vitae of St. Martin. In the Slavic tradition his memory is mentioned in about 15 early Gospel- and Apostle-MSS, all except one of a South Slavic origin and most of them Bulgarian. Also, the Greek synaxarion Vitae have Slavic translations which are compared in the article. Moreover, troparia for St. Martin are preserved in the Service of St. Menas which is also celebrated on November 11th. Greek originals of these troparia have not been found so far. Thus, they are either Slavonic originals or were translated from an unknown source. Most probably they were included in St. Menas’ service in Bulgaria during the 10th century. In conclusion: There are two traditions of the cult of St. Martin in the Slavic Orthodox world – one of them is represented in his short Vitae and is connected with Constantinople, the other one is connected with the Italo-Greek tradition and represented under his date in the Gospel- and Apostle-calendars, as well as in the troparia included in the Service of St. Menas. The second tradition probably derives from early Bulgaria and is to be seen together with the dedication of other Italian saints in Bulgaria (St. Alexander of Rome, Pope Stephen I, St. Alexis the Man of God, St. Apollinarius of Ravenna, St. Vitus, St. Erasmus of Formiae), especially in Ochrid. The article gives also some information on the folklore tradition of autumn feasts connected with St. Martin’s day. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=123535 | |

Peter and Paul’s day (1Pet 1: 3-9, 1Pet 1: 13-19, 1Pet 2: 11-24) in seven thirteenth- to seventeenth-century Menaia are juxtaposed with the texts of the same lections in the Grigorovi_ Parimejnik and with the same texts in six twelfth- to sixteenth-century Apostoloi. In two of the apostoloi the places of these lections are specially marked. The results of the comparison show that: 1) The texts of the lections in Menaia, dating from the fifteenth century onwards is revised. The revised version appears without variations, with the exception of omitted phrases. 2) This revised text follows the Athonite revision of the book of Apostolos, but not strictly. There are some places, which follow the earlier translation, and some other places which are specific only for the revised lections in the Menaia. | http://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=211035 |

As the text has experienced several redactions at different times it contains not only linguistic innovations, but also some errors. The importance of the Croatian text for the reconstruction of the original text is limited.

My work with the newly found inscription bearing the name of the artist Basil as well as with the rest of the epigraphic material made it possible to fill a considerable gap in the history of the Boyana church. Furthermore, some of the scenes painted in the narthex have provoked a new interpretation since they seem to have been related to the work and style of that artist called Basil. One of them belongs to the life cycle of St Nicholas. The Life of St Nicholas includes a miracle that happened in Myra when, during the service, the Arabs attacked the church and captured the entire congregation including a certain youth called Basil. All were carried off to Crete as prisoners. Basil, on the account of his youth and beauty, was appointed by the Emir his cup-bearer. Basil’s parents did not know anything about the fate of their son and were very desperate. Their neighbors advised them to pray passionately to St Nicholas and indeed, the saint rescued their son from the Arabs. The scene with the happy return of Basil to his family cannot be found in any of the known Byzantine fresco cycles of St Nicholas’ Life. Yet, though rear, it is depicted in several churches in Serbia and Republic of Macedonia. The artists in Boyana, Psača (R Macedonia) and Ramaća (Serbia) did not relay on a definite Byzantine iconography. According to N. P. Ševčenko, it seems rather that all of them turned to West European versions or employed their own imagination. The scene in the Boyana church does not find parallels and direct analogies in the rest of the known fresco cycles, representing that miracle of St Nicholas. It appears as a peculiar nuance and accent in the iconographic program of the Boyana church and can be distinguished not only with its artistic characteristics and composition, but also with the specifics of the personages. The most impressive is the main figure in that scene – Basil rescued from the Saracens. It can be only speculated whether that episode was somehow related to the personal life of the artist Basil and thus, he approached it in a specific, unique manner in the frescoes. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=123516 | |

The names are presented in the order they appear in the Eulogy. The author analyzes the names from a linguistic point of view and points out their usage in other Slavonic texts and their particular interpretation in the context of the Eulogy. The Greek equivalents to the Slavonic names are provided together with their biblical proof texts. Andrew of Crete used biblical symbols of the Theotokos. He combined symbols from the Old Testament and the New Testament, thus demonstrating their continuity. The Slavonic editor translated the names, but also showed his own preferences. He rarely used Greek terms without translation and prefers to find Slavonic equivalents. The Slavonic Eulogy includes some of the most frequently used Theotokian titles as well as some specific designations which rarely appear as symbolic names for the Mother of God. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=588442 |

| Кирил Ненов | (София) – Името ΟΜΟ(Y)ΡΤΑΓ в българскитe надписи от IX век.. Кн. 65-66 (2022), стр. 127–151. | THE NAME ΟΜΟ(Y)ΡΤΑΓ IN BULGARIAN INSCRIPTIONS OF THE NINTH CENTURY Kiril Nenov (Sofia) Abstract Since the end of the nineteenth century and based on the well-known medieval Bulgarian inscriptions, this ruler’s name has traditionally been presented in modern historiography with the initial sound o-: Omortag, Omurtag, and even Omărtag. These forms are based on the belief that all letters of the string are an integral part of the ruler’s name. As early as 1945, however, Henri Grégoire noted that the initial o- in this name represents the masculine singular nominative form of the Greek definite article. Veselin Beshevliev claims that this is not the case with the name Omurtag, because in “the Proto-Bulgarian expressions κανα συβηγη Ωμουρταγ this name always appears with o- in the beginning”. In defence of this opinion, the Bulgarian philologist gives as an example the use of the name Malamir in inscriptions: κανα συβηγη Μαλαμηρ when combined in a Bulgarian expression, but ὁ Μαλαμιρ when used in a Greek sentence. However, the examples from the Bulgarian inscriptions of the ninth century testify rather to the existence of a different approach in compiling the texts and, possibly, to different compilers. In the first model, probably a Greek definite article is used before the name of the ruler despite the Bulgarian title preceding it; in the second, the Bulgarian expression is not governed by Greek grammatical rules, while the third completely ignores the definite article before the names until the Greek words appear in the text. The detailed examination and analysis of the letter series ΟΜΟΡΤΑΓ / ΟΜΟYΡΤΑΓ from the Bulgarian inscriptions of the ninth century gives grounds to consider it equivalent to ὁ Μορταγ / ὁ Μουρταγ. Whether the two forms were used synchronously or during different periods in the Bulgarian epigraphic monuments cannot be established at this stage. Their eventual chronological dependence could otherwise contribute to the dating of the inscriptions according to the use of one of the two records of the anthroponym. From the point of view of the proposed arguments, the name of this Bulgarian ruler should be rendered as Mortag / Murtag, without insisting that each phoneme corresponds to its original pronunciation. Regarding the origin of the appellation, at this stage the most plausible hypothesis is that it is connected with names from the Iranian group of languages, but its etymology cannot be considered definitively established.

In the beginning of the 18th century the “spirit” of the New Age has had already appeared in Month Athos, radiating its powerful inspirational signals towards the reviving Balkan peoples, and offering them (also imposing on them) the unique for the Balkans model of pro- and anti-Byzantine civilizational abstraction. The “Byzantine Dream” represents the construction of the first conceptual nation-building image on the Balkans. This nation-building and civilizational signal originated from Month Athos by no accident: despite the fact that the monasteries on Month Athos peninsula were characterized by their clearly exhibited national idiosyncrasies during the centuries of submission to the authority of the Ottoman Empire they also found themselves united by their common experience of a sort of national complex which generally could be termed a “pro- and anti-Byzantine complex.” The validity and importance of this complex remain invariant regardless whether the origin of its “lost paradise” could be understood as the mere existence of the Byzantium Empire itself, or of its century-long rivalry with its biggest competitor for regional power – the Bulgarian Sate. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=123536 |

So far, attention has been given to those readings in it whose author is supposedly St Clement of Ohrid. The rest are undescribed and unknown. This article focuses on two of them, which were read during the Service of the Twelve Gospels at Holy Friday Matins. The first is “Miracle of the Crucifix and the Jew”, whose Greek source is unknown to us. The second, titled “Homily and Sermon on the Passion of Christ”, is most probably not a translation. Its central motif is Christ’s Descent into Hell. The analysis of this Homily has established that it is based mainly on two Byzantine works, translated as early as the ninth–tenth centuries. Its author used the Homily on Holy Saturday attributed to Epiphanius of Cyprus, and Homily XCIX from the Paraenesis associated with Ephrem the Syrian. This article enriches Old Bulgarian literature with new works and draws scholarly attention to synaxarion readings, to their connection with the Byzantine models, the various means of their adaptation, and their place in Triodia and Triodion Panegyrika.

SL. 156 FROM THE LIBRARY OF THE ROMANIAN ACADEMY AND ITS PLACE IN THE TEXTUAL TRADITION OF PENTECOSTAL PANEGYRICS KLIMENTINA IVANOVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) Ms. Sl. 156 (RA156) is an extensive Pentecostal Panegyric which includes texts from Holy Week through the Sunday of All Saints. The manuscript is incomplete, but its largest lacuna has been filled up from a miscellany of fragments in the collection of P. A. Shchukin, the State Historical Museum in Moscow. The fifth fragment of Shchuk 369 (Shchuk 369/V), located on Fol. 56r-68v according to the general foliation of the textual body, comprises folia that have been extracted from two different parts of a single jer manuscript. The first group of texts is related to Thomas Sunday (10 fol.), the second to Ascension (3 fol.). The manuscript dates from the 1320s-1330s. It has no jers and was written on Mt. Athos, then evidently transported to Romania by Paisii Velichkovski. This codex reveals a notable correlation between the orthography and the arrangement of the texts within each cycle of feasts, which sets it apart from other known South Slavic panegyrica and suggests that there could have been more than one protograph of the Pentecostal Panegyric. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=476757 | |

It was written in the Constantinople monastery of Christ Pantocrator built by her. The anonymous Vita came into existence soon after she was canonized, around the mid of the 12th c. The time of its composing is situated between 1143 (as the death of the emperor John II Comnenos is mentioned at the end of the text) and 1180 (the death of emperor Manuel Comnenos). There are two redactions of the Vita in the Greek tradition. It can be found in the Synaxaria for the second half of the year (under the date of 13th August). There are other copies of the Vita in the August Menaia with verse Synaxaria under the same date. In Bulgaria it was translated as a part of the Verse Prolog for August; it is known in numerous manuscripts (Bulgarian, Serbian and Russian) under the same date. At the same time, there is a copy of the saint’s life in a Moldavian Menologion from the Russian State Library (fund 178, № 3171) under the date of 24th January – the day of St. Xenia of Rome. The manuscript is the only Slavonic codex in which the life functions as a reading from a Menologion. The Slavonic text is without any doubt a translation of a version very close to the full redaction of the Greek text. All Slavonic copies seem to have originated from one translation. This translation is correct in certain parts while there are passages which the Bulgarian translator had seemingly not understood or had missed. There are passages showing a freer interpretation or even deliberate changes in the text. The Greek and the Slavonic texts are published in the two Appendices. The Greek one – according to its full redaction, and the Slavic one – according to its oldest copy from the Zograph Monastery with variations based on the Moscow manuscript (№ 3171). | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=103944 | |

Кн. 45–46 (2012), стр. 86–115. | AN UNKNOWN COMPILATION COMPRISING THE ENKOMION FOR JOHN THE BAPTIST BY CLEMENT OF OHRID KLIMENTINA IVANOVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) The text presented (under the title Homily for Theophany) is an interesting example of a compilation of two rhetorical works. The first one is a part of the Oration on the Mathew’s Gospel by John Chrysostom (Мt 3: 13–17; Greek in РG 57, col. 201–208). Attached to it is the Enkomion for John the Baptist by Clement of Ohrid. The fragment by Chrysostom is taken from the already existing Old Bulgarian translation, transcripts of which are included in some 14th-century Serbian Panegirika collections. The Enkomion for John the Baptist is incorporated almost in full. To the exegetic Chrysostom’s oration Clement’s texts adds rhetorical pathos and an emotional rhythmic prize of the Baptist. In the process of creating the compilation, its two parts were not edited, so they preserved their independence in the frame of the new literary piece. The Compilation on Theophany is attested in two late Serbian manuscripts. The older transcript is preserved in a sixteenth-century codex. Its copyist Timothy the Deaf stated that he had written the book in Ozren Monastery (Bosnia) in 1589. The manuscript, which belonged to the Hopovo Monastery, is now stored in the Library of the Serbian Patriarchy in Belgrade (No 282). The second transcript is incorporated in a Reading Menaion for January, compiled by the well-known man-of-letters Averkios in 1626 on Mt Athos (now in the Hilandar Monastery, MS 443). The two copies reveal minor variations. It seems that Timothy’s MS served as the source of Averkios. The protograph of the Compilation on Theophany most likely appeared in Serbia. It is difficult to define its exact date, yet it was not earlier than the 14th century and not later than 1589. The existence of such a compilation reveals the authority of the Old Bulgarian translated and original rhetorical texts in the literature of the Balkan Slavs. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=196297 | |

ANN – A POSSIBLE OLD BULGARIAN ORIGINAL WORK KLIMENTINA IVANOVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) The “Sermon on the Conception of St. Ann, when she Conceived the Holy Theotokos” is a rhetorical work which can be found under December 9th in a considerable number of Slavic transcripts contained in Reading Menologies from the 14th to the 17th century. A Greek counterpart has not been found so far. The Slavic text follows the classical form of the Greek sermons and has a clearly outlined and wellconsidered structure. Partially the “Sermon on the Conception of St. Ann” is based upon the so-called Protoevangelion of Jacob. Although its earliest preserved copies date from the 14th century, it reveals Old Bulgarian linguistic peculiarities. Its literary qualities point to a talented and emotional preacher, well-acquainted with the model of the sermon who freely interpreted the texts he knew. The collation reveals that he used the fi rst Old Bulgarian translation the Protoevangelion of Jacob. The analysis suggests that the Sermon was composed not later than in the 10th century. Its stylistic features are more similar to those of St. Clement than to the works of the Exarch John. Without excluding the possibility that the Sermon derives from an unknown Greek original, the assumption is made that it could have been written by an Old Bulgarian author who had learned the principles of Byzantine rhetorics. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=123548 | |

In Samokov there are five churches. Four of them are dedicated to Virgin Mary and one to St Nikolaos of Myra. This model of nomination is reproduced in villages in the vicinities of the town. In the nomination of the sacred space of Samokov, the Virgin Mary designates “our space here and now, the space of the living,“ while St Nicholas marks the ‘hereafter, the world of the dead’ (necro-polis) because his church is located in the graveyard. Thus ‘our world’ is marked by the four great Church feasts celebrating the Virgin Mary, namely Dormition of the Theotokos, Nativity of the Theotokos, Presentation of the Theotokos to the Temple, and the Intercession of the Theotokos as the four main altars of the churches in Samokov are dedicated to these holy events. The ‘world of the dead’ is marked by the church dedicated to St Nicholas (with a variation in the region: to Archangel Michael). This organization of the sacred space is specific (and unique) for Samokov. There have been recorded also three folk legends about Virgin Mary saving the town three times between the 17th and 20th centuries. These records and the dedications of the churches in the town show that the cult of the Virgin is very strong in Samokov and that this could be traced back to the pre-Ottoman period. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=6944 |

In order to facilitate the learning of Slavic, with the help of the rector, metropolitan Konstantinos Typaldos (1844–1865), teachers prepared various textbooks and translations that were used not only there, but also in other schools in the Slavic provinces. Leaning on his long pedagogical practice and his literary activities Neophytos of Rilla (teacher at Halki), created a remarkable textbook, namely the “Reader of Slavonic Language”, accompanied by a Slavonic-Greek dictionary which included the words from the Reader. The richness of words, the accuracy of expressions and the historical and philological value of the interpretative explanations inside this book make it unique for the Orthodox world and equally valuable for both the Greeks and the Slavs (Bulgarians, Serbs, and Russians). According to Ljubomir Miletich, “the dictionary as a whole demonstrates the originality of Neophytos’ work as a scholar, which even today (1906) does not lack historical and philological value in the Slavic literature”. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=123543 | |

Кн. 59-60 (2019), стр. 33–55. | CYRIL AND METHODIUS IN ROME AND IN ROME’S MEMORY Krassimir Stantchev (Abstract) The article, whose theoretical foundation is the concept “sites of memory” (Lieux de Mémoire), formulated in the 1980s by Pierre Nora, traces the sites of Cyrillo-Methodian memory in Rome. The sites are classified into two groups: • sites linked by documentation or by hypothesis to the stay of St. Cyril (Constantine the Philosopher) and St. Methodius in Rome in 868-869 and which indisputably existed at the time, which allows us to treat them as sites of preserved and retransmitted memory; • sites of the ideal (in Nora’s terms, “abstract and intellectual”) fixation of memory, articulated in monumental representations of the First Apostles of the Slavs or in dedicatory inscription on institutional buildings, most often churches. In both cases, the main criterion for treating a particular object as a site of memory is its marking by inscriptions, memorial plaques, etc. Recalling Nora’s insight that the number of memory expressions is proportionate to the number of groups (communities) that see in these places a symbol of their history, the author concludes with the hope that, for both Slavic and non-Slavic peoples in Europe, Rome constitutes a collective memory site for the shared reverence toward Cyril and Methodius which transcends confessional difference. | http://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=809462 | |

Krassimir Stantchev (Abstract) This article analyzes the available evidence about Pope Adrian II’s consecration of Slavic books in 868, which in effect consecrated the Glagolitic alphabet created by Constantine-Cyril. The evidence, found in the Slavonic Lives of St. Cyril (VC) and St. Methodius (VM), is absent from both the Latin Italian legend and the few other extant documentary sources from that period. The author argues that the description of the event in VC, with its rich topographic and prosopographical details, must have been written by a well-informed eyewitness, and should therefore be considered more credible. By contrast, the narrative in VM features prosopographical inaccuracies, abbreviations, contaminations, and creative additions, whose role most probably was to protect Methodius from possible charges. Specifically, the author supports the view that the Epistle of Adrian II in VM is not a paraphrase of an actual document, but a compositional element devised by the hagiographer. In the final analysis, while the exact nature of the papal blessing remains unclear, it is beyond doubt that, without this event—and the better documented papal elevation of Methodius to the rank of Moravian (arch)bishop—the further history of the Slavonic alphabet would have followed a very different trajectory. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=718604 | |

Кн. 39–40 (2008), стр. 16–29. | INCOGNITA CYRILLOMETHODIANA KRASSIMIR STANTCHEV (ROME) (Abstract) The article subjects to a critical analysis the interpretations of some parts of the Life of St. Cyril, XV and the Life of St. Methodios, XV.4. 1. The evidence from the Life of Cyril, XV that in Moravia Constantine translated въсъ цръковныи чинь is analyzed. An attempt is made to prove that this phrase does not point to the corpus of the liturgical texts, but rather to a book regulating and/or clarifying the liturgical order (чинь); it is also possible that it does not speak about translation, but – in agreement with a part of the manuscript tradition – about the acceptance and explanation of the liturgical order (notwithstanding which one). 2. A new interpretation is proposed of the phrase “selected church liturgies” in the Life of Methodios, XV.4 based upon usage of the word combination “church liturgies” in the oldest texts. The author supports Alexander Naumow’s hypothesis that the phrase о(т)чскыꙗ книгы (“the Books of the Fathers”) in the Life of Methodios, XV.5 most probably does not speak about a different translation that took place along with the translation of the Nomokanon, but should rather be interpreted as a extended explanation of the Greek term: “Than he translated the Nomokanon, that is to say the Rules of the Law and [those of] the Books of the [Church] Fathers.” An attempt is made to support this hypothesis both with evidence from the manuscript tradition of the Nomokanon and with contextual analysis of some of the lexemes used. Furthermore, some considerations about the chronology of the usage of the term Nomokanon are put forward. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=125076 | |

Кн. 57-58 (2018), стр. 61–84. | THE “SLAVIC BOOKS” AND THEIR PAPAL BLESSING, OR WHAT VITA CONSTANTINI AND VITA METHODII REALLY SAY (AND WHAT THEY LEAVE UNSAID) Cristiano Diddi (Abstract) The article takes as a starting point the account about the “Slavic books” (книгы словеньскыѥ – Vita Constantini 17:5) brought to Rome by the Slavic apostles Cyrill and Methodius, and their blessing by Pope Adrian II. By “Slavic books,” scholars usually mean loosely defined “liturgical books” that could reasonably be identified with the Slavonic Gospel (словѣньское евангелиѥ) mentioned in Vita Methodii 6:1. The liturgical books referred to in VC, however, still remain undefined, as it remains unclear who completed their translations, when and where. In an attempt to answer these questions, the author considers some passages from the Lives of the Slavic apostles with explicit references to “books,” and “letters.” Careful reexamination of the vitas’ entire manuscript tradition cannot support the assumption that, after his arrival in Moravia, Constantine continued to engage in translation activities. Taking up a proposal advanced in the past by other scholars, the article assumes that, instead of translating some undefined “liturgical texts” (VC 15:2 вьсь црк҃овныи чинь прѣложь/прїимь), Constantine “transferred”, “transcribed”, and “fixed” in Slavic letters texts that had already been translated (by the way, different passages of VC mention Constantine’s dispute with the Latin and Franco-Germanic clergy that related not so much to the translation of books as to the Slavic letters – see VC 15 and 16). For a more precise identification of these translations, the article briefly reexamines the literature produced by Irish and Frankish missionaries in the dioceses of Salzburg, Regensburg, Freising, Passau during the 7th and 8th centuries, as well as translations made by the Frankish clergy in the 9th century. The interpretation proposed in this article fits well with the Pope’s willingness to bless books written in Slavonic, since the practice of translating [essential Christian] texts into local languages served a well-established and long-standing missionary program, one that aimed far beyond the Slavs of Moravia. Through this politics, the papacy could regain control of territories that had previously been under the jurisdiction of Rome, yet had meanwhile fallen under the control of the Franks. In conclusion, the author challenges us to reread the Cyrillo-Methodian sources afresh, without any theoretical nor ideological bias, keeping in mind that these texts are primarily literary and ideologically inflected works, not historical sources. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=718607 | |

While many scholars usually consider them a misunderstanding of Gr. γέννα, γενεά instead of γέεννα (see, e.g., Miklosich, Vondrák, Horálek, Vasmer, Trubačev and others), the present analysis, taking account of several issues in the field of etymology, semantics and ethnography, suggests that both expressions матица and родъ, родьство should not be considered erroneous (moreover originated by different translators working independently from each other), but rather relics of Slavic pagan beliefs illustrating the topography of the netherworld, and afterwards, in the Church Slavonic literature, readapted in the light of the interpretatio christiana. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=6926 |

According to this tradition the church music is rationalized as a perception of unity, goodness, and beauty. The Council of Trent decree of 1562 calls for the necessity and ability of the church music to educate and admonish the listeners. The turning point in the history of the idea comes forward when the musical aesthetics as modern science adopts the postulate for independent sensational sound reality and its valuation criteria become that of the musical expressive methods. Precisely this analysis, however, is of very limited potential with regard to the church music. Thus the idea of the Logos nature of the music appears in the foreground carefully protected by the musical theology to this day. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=45494 |

Кн. 63-64 (2021), стр. 15–96. | ST ELMO’S FIRE OVER THE BALKANS: THE MARTYRDOM OF ERASMUS IN THE OLD BULGARIAN TRANSLATION Vadim B. Krysko, Ksenia Yu. Doykina (Abstract) The Life of St Erasmus (The Martyrdom of Erasmus, Passio Erasmi) is known in three versions, i.e. Latin, Greek and Slavic. The Latin version is represented by dozens of copies since the nineteenth century, the Greek one, by only three copies of the eleventh–fourteenth centuries. A number of facts, especially the rendering of toponyms, indicate the primacy of the Latin text, in comparison with which the three Greek copies appear as a reflection of two different translations or recensions. The Old Bulgarian translation of Passio Erasmi, unknown to the researchers of Latin and Greek hagiography, has been preserved in an Old East Slavic manuscript of the twelfth century and in several Russian copies of the fifteenth–sixteenth centuries; these two branches of the Slavic tradition show considerable similarity, but go back to the different archetypes. The article presents a critical edition of the Slavic text according to the oldest copy with significant variants from other manuscripts; in parallel, the oldest copy of the Greek version is published for the first time with variae lectiones of other copies relevant to the Slavic translation as well as the readings of the Latin version close to the Slavic one. The publication is accompanied by a reconstruction of the Old Bulgarian text and its translation into modern Russian. An analysis of the Slavic translation suggests that it was based on a Greek text that was different from the three surviving copies, but in a number of points coincided with the earlier Latin text. Some features of translation techniques and archaisms give grounds to trace the Slavic translation back to the tenth century. The fact that the Life of Erasmus, who suffered martyrdom in the Balkan lands, was chosen among thousands of others for translation in the First Bulgarian Empire, reflects the still living tradition of the veneration of Erasmus as a Balkan martyr par excellence, a tradition that was preserved by the Byzantine Church and was handed over to the Bulgarian Church, and from it – to the Russian Church and Russian scripture.

The corpus of the Beggars’ epics is relatively late. The songs are mainly devoted to Christian saints and their deeds presented through folklore poetics. It have been claimed that the characters of the saints had their pagan prototypes and originated from the pre-Christian oral tradition. Still, our analyses of several folklore texts suggest that the Christian vision prevails in the songs and that the characters were formed upon the visions of the Middle Ages. The vision of the saints is formed upon the picture of their relics (the physical remains of the saints ‒ Saint Parascevе /Veneranda and Saint Nedelya / Dominica). This representation of the relics of both saints in Bulgarian folklore songs may have reflected their popularity in the Second Bulgarian Kingdom (1185‒1396) and especially in its capital, Turnovo. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=6927 |

Totev has attempted to date the well-known wall painting calendar (the Menologion) in the nartex of the church of the Holy Martyrs in the old Bulgarian capital from the 14th century. Archeologists and art historians who have studied the monument earlier are unanimous that it was created in the 13th century, presenting serious arguments both from a historical point of view and from the point of view of art history. The author of this paper, who in 1974 published a monograph on the wall paintings of the church, disputes this dating of K. Totev, which is without any justification. He is not familiar with a number of earlier monuments, neither with any earlier menologion. The author notes the existence of a group of icon-menologia from the end of the eleventh to the 12th century at the Monastery of St. Catherine in Sinai which are cited in her monograph. They were published as early as the middle of the 20th century and no doubt are close to the models of the menologion at Tărnovo. An extensive study of the late Greek specialist G. Galavaris was dedicated to these menologia. He carefully has traced the connection of Sinai with Constantinopolitan scriptoria and the closeness of the examined icons with the ornamentation of these MSS. This confirms the early date of the menologion at Tărnovo and N. Mavrodinov’s claim on the illuminated MSS as an example for the menologion. The Bulgarian terminology used in the inscriptions leaves no doubt of its early dating. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=123546 | |

The author analyzes several fourteenth-century translations: one Bulgarian and one Serbian version of the calendar distichs by Christopher of Mytilene, and a Serbian translation of the tetrastichs on Gospel topics by Theodore Prodromos. The texts are compared with respect to the way they render stylistically marked linguistic peculiarities of the original. The analysis concludes that medieval Slavic translators, more often than not, understood the poetic nature of the original texts and strove to recreate it. They often preserved repetitions, antitheses and syntactical parallelisms but rarely reproduced compound words. The approach to formal peculiarities of the Byzantine original differs from translator to translator, revealing important characteristics of individual translation styles. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=913269 | |

This study compares the approaches of the two translators through a quantita tive analysis of the originals and their translations, searching for equivalences at the lexical level (additions and repeatedly translated words, periphrastic, analytical and double translations), at the level of word-formation tendencies, morphological changes, and lexical synonymy (both quantitative and qualitative). The systemati cally organized data are evaluated not only in isolation, but also in the context of other translated works from the same literary center, both contemporaneous with the target works and belonging to earlier periods. The facts presented in the article confirm that the governing principles of the 14th- century Athonite translation circle are relatively uniform, while revealing considerable differences in the personal translation technique of the two bookmen. Barlaam of Calabria’s translator is more independent from his original in choosing qualitative Slavonic lexical equivalents, resorting to lexemes without any Greek parallel, duplication of prepositions and content parts of speech, and pleonastic translations. By contrast, the translator of Gregory Palamas demonstrates greater freedom in choosing Slavonic correlates: his translations deviate more often from the morphological categories in the original, offer a greater number of Slavonic variants for the same Greek lexeme, and use more collocations to render two-stem Greek words. Each of the two translators prefers different Slavonic equivalents for particular Greek lexemes, especially those in the terminological sphere. Some of the variants stand out against the background of correlates traditionally used in Athonite theological translations and could, therefore, be seen as features of the translators’ individual styles. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=366168 | |

On the basis of the March texts in seven South Slavic manuscripts, the differences in the rendering of the personal names are analysed on the level of phonetics, orthography, morphology and word formation. The data allow the following conclusions: 1) The differences in the forms of these names in the Bulgarian and Serbian Prolog Stišnoj give further arguments supporting their independent origin; 2) Several specific tendencies are noted which more or less differentiate them. The Bulgarian translation reproduces more accurately the graphics of the original names, allows dativus possessivus, often replaces the Greek anthroponyms and toponyms with adjectives, presents many local names in the plural, and sometimes retains Greek nominative endings in masculine personal names. The Serbian translation, on the other hand, follows more often the Byzantine pronunciation of the names, complies more strictly with their grammatical characteristics (case, number), separates more often the ending -ς from the stem, and incorporates the accusative ending -ν into the stem of certain anthroponyms several times. 3) The tendency towards Slavicisation of the personal names is nearly the same in both translations and cannot be viewed as peculiar of either of them. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=103946 | |

The first is translation A, ascribed to a Middle Bulgarian man of letters, Zakcheus the Philosopher, and related to the Athonite reform of liturgical books. The second is translation C. Its localisation has been determined generally as the territory of contemporary West Bulgaria, Macedonia or South Serbia. The comparison of the two translations has shown that, though being oriented to precise presentation of the formal models of the original, they reproduce the instant linguistic models at a different extent. The reproduction differs in approaches and means used. In this aspect translation C exhibits greater independence from the text translated. The two translations are based on different earlier literary traditions. While translation C, as well as the Tarnovo redaction of translation A, implement the established language norms of the Old and Middle Bulgarian literature (e.g. keeping the Greek borrowings), the Athonite text of Zakcheus restricts their usage by replacing them with neologism loanwords. The Old Bulgarian lexical heritage does not have tantamount presence in the two translations. The Athonite and Tarnovo versions stick closer to the lexical inventory of the Preslav epoch, while translation C resorts more frequently to the Cyrillo-Methodian vocabulary. | http://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=211038 |

The immediate causes for their creation were the cultural and educational needs of the faithful and the necessity to suppress the impact of reformation propaganda. The author draws attention mainly to the assemblage where the traditional Marian cults and Lord’s feasts were supplemented with moralizing and commemorations of saints. The author points out that the rich typological formula of the Gospel homiliaries decided about liveliness and popularity of the genre as well as about its significant practical values in liturgy and religious self-education. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=123534 |

ON SOME SLAVONIC TEXTS PRESENTING JOSEPH OF ARIMATHAEA MAŁGORZATA SKOWRONEK (LODZ) (Abstract) The study presents the literary creation of St Joseph of Arimathaea, the witness of the Passion, in the literary output of the Slavia Orthodoxa circle. The mediaeval Slavonic tradition does not present Joseph in a context different from this one known from the New Testament, but completes it with numerous details unknown from the canonical writings. The oldest pseudo-epigraphic source preserved in the Slavonic culture and most original one, in which Joseph is mentioned, is the Nicodemus Gospel. Chapters 12–16 are dedicated to the imprisonment of Joseph by Jews and releasing him by Christ, who transfers him to his native Arimathaea. The Story of Joseph, Who Burried Our Lord’s Body (Narratio Iosephi de Arimathaea, BHG 779r) is a secondary text, that uses extensive fragments of the Nicodemus Gospel as a base for the compilation. The oldest copy of its Slavonic translation derives from the Middle-Bulgarian period, however it’s not easy to judge its popularity and spread it obtained, although one could assume that it was probably smaller than this of the Nicodemus Gospel. The narrative led by Joseph himself is applied as a frame for the story of Christ’s passion, as well for other genres – such as angels’ letter about Christ, visions, thoughts of the Good Thief. Among narrative texts, the Story of the righteous Joseph by Priest Puncho (18th cent.) occupies a special place. The story is limited to Joseph’s conversation with Pilate, but its main part features the speech of Joseph, who is begging for the Lord’s body. The Story of Burying Christ’s Body and of Joseph of Arimathaea and of Nicodemus by Epiphanius of Cyprus deserves a special attention among the relevant homiletic works. It has been translated twice into Slavonic (around the 10th cent.). The text, particularly popular in Russia, used to be read on Easter Saturday and on the Sunday seven weeks after Easter. Epiphanius (and his Slavonic translators) presented Joseph’s speech to Pilate with a real mastery. The East Slavonic tradition contains some texts modeled after Latin and Polish Passions. Usually they do not deviate from the Bible account, but amplify some motifs related to Joseph, like the conversation with Pilate or his lamenting and mourning. In one of them, Joseph is named ‘Apostle’. The liturgical poetry, too, do not differ the New Testament account. The study is accompanied by the edition of the Story of the righteous Joseph by Priest Puncho according to four copies from manuscripts: NBKM 693, NBKM 722, CIAI 232 and NBKM 726. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=6942 |

The texts were copied with Ressava orthography. Four of these prayers contain incantations against insects and animals that attack the crop in gardens and vineyard. Structured as dialogues of the saint and archangels, and as a first-person narrative, they fall into the category of apocryphal texts. All the five texts are known from other sources but only in Hilandar 167 they appear as a cycle beginning with the Office to St Tryphon and ending with the Apocryphal Prayer of St Paul in case of snake-bite. The author suggests that this cycle may have been composed in the Hilandar Monastery in the orchard of which there was a chapel dedicated to St Tryphon. The apocryphal prayers were translated from Greek and in the lists of the harmful insects and animals, there are new bookish loanwords and calques but also there are lexemes used in the early Old Bulgarian/ Old Church Slavonic (Cyrillo-Methodian) translation of the Bible. The language of the prayers follows the literary norm and their style register is far from the vernacular because of the use of bookish words and allusions to or phrases from the Bible. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=6915 | |

The analysis concerns all the fragments but is mostly concentrated on the two of them kept in SS. Cyril and Methodius National Library, nos. 499 and 500 which have been examined de visu. The characteristics of the decoration, orthography, and text show interplay of more archaic and more innovative features, for instance there are both archaic lexical readings and Preslavisms. The Apostolos is closer to the Slepche Apostolos and Matica Srpska Apostolos. The Manuil Apostolos is likely to have been written in an eastern (or northeastern) Bulgarian scriptorium in the second half of the thirteenth century. | http://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=211024 | |

Zhivova (Abstract) This article focuses on the question how the figures of Cyril and Methodius are inscribed into Carpatho-Russian cultural and confessional self-determination during the second half of the 19th and the first quarter of the 20th centuries. The material is drawn from the almanac called „Месяцеслов для русинов краины угорской“ which is addressed to Rusyns of the Greek-Catholic confession. The purpose of the almanac, and especially of its articles with educational, cultural, historical or religious content, was to enhance Carpatho-Russian national identity. These texts offered Rusyns a model for self-affirmation, including a vision for the antiquity of their own history, religion and writing, supported by historical as well as completely legendary sources. The Slavic Apostles proved the most suitable figures for such a model. After all, Cyril and Methodius link the Eastern and Western Christian worlds and could help Carpatho-Russians negotiate their place among Byzantium, Rome, Russia, and the Western Slavs. | http://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=809463 | |

GREGORY DIALOGUS IN THE LITURGICAL AND HAGIOGRAPHIC TRADITIONS OF SLAVIA ORTHODOXA MARGARITA ZHIVOVA (PISA) (Abstract) The article examines the historical development of the cult of St. Gregory Dialogus [or: St. Gregory the Dialogist], Pope of Rome, in the Orthodox Slavic tradition through analysis of the cult’s liturgical evidence. It studies in detail various hagiographic texts about the saint, with a focus on the relationship between his Vita and the Synaxarion (Prolog) Vita of St. Gregory. By comparing the longer version in the Simple Prologue with the Life from the reading Menоlogion (čet’i-minejnoe žitie) the author examines how the hagiographical texts of this version were compiled and edited, reconfirming the hypothesis that the longer version of the Simple Prolog, while traditionally called “second”, was in fact created before the short one. Furthermore, she offers enough evidence to suggest that this version is an original medieval East Slavic work. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=340858 |

It shows God the Father supporting close to His chest the crucified Christ and the Holy Spirit as a dove depicted above the cross. The Throne of Mercy is a variant of the Trinity which is emblematic for Western painting, where it already existed by the end of the 12th century. Its diffusion in Orthodox painting is very restricted both during the Byzantine and post-Byzantine periods. The Western composition influenced the images in the parish church of the Virgin in Roustica in Crete (1380-81) and in two Cypriot churches dedicated to the Holy Cross from the 15th and 16th centuries. The Throne of Mercy composition occurs also in Russian icon painting from the 16th-17th centuries, where it achieved a more radical transformation. Specific to the Russian variants are the depiction of Christ on the cross with cherub wings, and a crown on the head of God the Father. An elaborate image of this type is painted on the famous four-segment icon from the middle of the 16th century in the Annunciation Cathedral of the Moscow Kremlin. The 17th-century example of the Throne of Mercy in the Nativity of Christ church in Arbanassi strictly follows Russian variants, as known from the four-segment icon of the mural paintings in the Holy Dormition Monastery of Sviyazhsk (c. 1560), and from a similar 17th-century icon kept today in the Republic of Karelia Museum of Fine Arts. How the obviously direct Russian influence reached Arbanassi cannot be determined any more. Yet, it is well known that the Metropolitans of Tǎrnovo traditionally kept close ties with Russia, and that during the 16th and 17th centuries there were numerous visits of Bulgarian clergymen to Moscow. Often these visitors received church vessels and icons as presents. This fact may have furthered the transmission of this iconographic model to the Bulgarian church. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=106764 | |

MARGARITA MLADENOVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) The paper offers a critical discussion of the theory of the southern localization of Great Moravia as proposed by Imre Boba in his book Moravia’s History Reconsidered and presented in a new variant by Peter Juhas in his (Bulgarian) monography Cyril and Methodius in Bulgarian Morava (Sofia, 2000). The arguments against this theory concern three subjects: (1) the interpretation and reinterpretation of the historical sources; (2) the archeological data from excavations made in the second half of the 20th c. and their interpretation; (3) the overall context of the historical facts and their interpretation. The conclusion is that the way I. Boba and P. Juhas reinterpret history is based on a small part of the extant sources while the classical theory neglects none of them. And since the archeological sources and the context do not support their theory either, it is interesting as an experiment in reinterpretation but cannot serve as an alternative possibility to explain the historical situation. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=106776 | |

The content of the text suggests that it was created no earlier than in 1641, probably in the Duchy of Moldova. Copies of this version of the Life of St. Parasceve of Tărnovo in Church Slavonic have not been unknown so far. Judging by the Ruthenian version, the text is close to the edition of saint‘s Life by deacon Moses from the collection of Božidar Vuković published in Venice in 1536. However, in comparison to the latter, the Ruthenian version is abridged and contains some episodes represented in a more realistic manner. One of the main features of this version is the inclusion of the story about the translation of the relics of St. Parasceve to Yaşi in 1641. Therefore, we propose calling this text the Moldovan version of the extended Life of St. Parasceve of Tărnovo. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=103935 |

The article aims to demonstrate how cognitive linguistics developed in the 80s of the 20th century and acknowledged as the most modern method of linguistic research (commonly practiced in Polish linguistics) can be applied to a medieval text. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=123525 |

Кн. 65-66 (2022), стр. 152–183. | SOUTH SLAVIC SUCCESSORS TO THE TARNOVO VERSION OF THE OFFICE MENAION OF THE THIRTEENTH CENTURY Maria Yovcheva (Sofia) Abstract This article examines nine South Slavic manuscripts originating from the Tarnovo version of the Menaion, as the earliest among them are the two thirteenth-century codices of the copyist Dobrian (ОGNB 32 + 24.4.12 (Srezn. 59) of the Library of the Russian Academy of Sciences and ОGNB 33 + GIM Uvar. 1176-4°). Arguments for their relationship are some identification markers from the calendar and the contents of the offices. The indicators specific to this family are given primary importance in the examination of the manuscripts, but others are also applied, based on the opposition new-redaction / old-redaction (i.e., menaia structured according to the old Studite typikon and composed before the fourteenth century / menaia structured according to the Jerusalem typikon and composed mainly during and after the fourteenth century). Twenty-three menaia manuscripts and four early printed books (Greek and Church Slavonic) are used as comparisons. The data obtained lead to several conclusions: (1) the Office Menaion, formed during the thirteenth century in the Bulgarian capital, is non-homogeneous since it contains both unique and old- and new-redaction specificities; (2) although related to the fading Studite liturgical practice, this version was actively used and modified in a Bulgarian and Serbian environment until the seventeenth century. In the fourteenth century it was developed, in connection with the newly introduced Neo-Sabaitic (or Jerusalem) typikon, by adding new hymns, making the compositions more complex, standardizing and updating the calendar, sometimes even by commemorations of the Studite type; (3) the three main levels – calendar, contents, and structure – show an unequal degree of redactor intervention in coordinating the Office Menaion with the new liturgical regulations; (4) not only the protograph but also all subsequent copies are of a hybrid type. This article presents arguments of a diverse nature for the localization of the earliest Bulgarian sources, i.e., the Dobrian codices and menaia of the fourteenth century (No. 19 of the Krka Monastery, No. 33 of the Cetinje Monastery, Zograph 115, Paris. Slav. 23): (1) the area of original copying and distribution; (2) the focus on the feasts of the Theotokos and the registration of a unique commemoration, Consecration of the Church of the Theotokos on 22 August, in ОGNB 33; (3) two commemorations confined only to this family – St Philothea Temnishka on 28 May and St John of Rila (on 18 August, with the canon in Tone Two), which are not supported by other old-redaction liturgical books. The hypothesis is advanced that the place of origin of the Tarnovo “new menaion” and of part of the Bulgarian copies could be the Monastery of St. Bogoroditsa Temnishka.

Кн. 63-64 (2021), стр. 97–127. | CONTRIBUTION TO THE STUDIES ON BALKAN EARLY CHRISTIAN REPERTOIRE OF SAINTS: ST ASTIUS, THE HIEROMARTYR OF DYRRHACHIUM (DURRËS) Maria Yovcheva (Abstract) This article presents a complete account of the various types of Byzantine and Slavonic evidence (liturgical texts, iconography, archaeological data) of the veneration of the Early Christian Balkan Hieromartyr St Astius of Dyrrhachium (early second century AD). The primary sources outline two directions in the development of his cult: as a bishop saint and as a martyr. In the local tradition with a centre in Dyrrhachium, observed in the iconography, in the acolouthia by the bishop of Dyrrhachium Jacob (issued in 1918 in Constantinople) and in medieval documents, he was predominantly venerated as a bishop saint, the successor to the See of the legendary Holy Apostle Caesar. There, over the centuries, St. Astius formed the couple bishop-deacon, significant for Christianity, with St. Isauros the Deacon (who died in Apollonia of Illyria, 283–284), whose relics were transferred to Dyrrhachium. The second direction in the development of the cult of St Astius focused on his martyrdom and is mainly maintained in Byzantine liturgical books originating from Constantinople: 1) Synaxaria, where three versions of his vita are distributed, 2) Menaia with an office for this saint by Joseph the Hymnographer (ninth century), based on the synaxarion text; 3) Church Typica (Оld Sabaitic redaction, presented in Cod. Sinait. gr. 1096, twelfth century, and the Typicon of the Monastery of the Theotokos Evergetis, Cod. Athen. gr. 778, early twelfth century) and isolated calendars of manuscript Gospels. Such distribution of liturgical texts regarding St. Astius is also found in Slavonic literature, where his veneration is repeatedly occurring in various versions of the Synaxarion (Prolog) (in the Non-versified Prolog, in the Serbian version of the Verse Prolog of the fourteenth century and in the Extended Non-versified Prolog; his name appeared only in the verses of the Tărnovo version of the fourteenth-century Verse Prolog). The saint is also mentioned in five calendars of West-Bulgarian and Serbian Gospels and Apostles; still, it remains unclear as to whether it occurs there under the influence of the local cult in the area of Dyrrhachium, or of a Constantinopolitan source. The article deals with a previously unknown translation of the Office for St Astius by Joseph the Hymnographer, made in the thirteenth century in one of the East Bulgarian literary centres (probably in the capital city of Tărnovo). The hymnographic text is published based on the only known copy in the Second Menaion of Dobrian, a Bulgarian thirteenth-century manuscript (Оdessa National Scientific Library, No. 1/5).

The focus is on the variations in translation of rare Greek words and phrases, the inclusion of hymns in two or more versions, and the interpolation of individual troparia and stichera. It is proved that the major part of mistakes and deviations show parallels in handwritten Service Menaia and are therefore most probably inherited from the manuscript tradition of the offi ces. Also attested in medieval Slavic manuscripts is a number of hymns – mostly canons – of the Kievan printed Menaia, which are absent in the respective offi ces of the Venetian Greek prints. On the basis of these data it is pointed out that the study of the sources of the early Slavic written codices should not be limited to the search for the written Greek or/and Slavic protographs, on which they were based, but the tradition the Menaion circulating several centuries in Slavic environment should also be taken into consideration. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=123532 | |

MARIA YOVCHEVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) The subject of study are the Menaia 1/4 and 1/5 in the collection of V. Grigorovič at the State Scientific Library in Odessa, dating from the second half of the thirteenth century. Their textological research in comparison with the early Russian Menaia, on the one hand, and with the South-Slavic copies from archaic protographs, on the other, leads to the conclusion that the two codices are an evidence of a complete renovation of this hymnographic book, performed through the thirteenth century. Some codicological, orthographic and linguistic marks of both manuscripts are reviewed, as well as the specific features of the calendar and the structure of the offices therein. The accumulated data suggest that the occurrence of this revision of the Menaion can be localized in one of the newly established literary centers of the Second Bulgarian Kingdom. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=81395 | |

Some stylistic and linguistic peculiarities of the Office are examined with respect to the specific literary and historical context of the occurrence of that hymnographic piece of work. The extracted data reveal that the text is characterised by chronologically ambiguous tokens. On the one hand, archaic lexemes and phrases are outlined evidencing continuity with the Cyrillo-Methodian written heritage and on the other, there are innovations of the Post-Moravian period of the development of the Old-Bulgarian literature. As long as in the scientific literature so far attempts have been made to prove the Russian origin of the Office, the article pays special attention to the lexical and morphologic bulgarisms in its text as well. | http://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=211029 | |

It presents new information about copies of texts dedicated Balkan saints included in these codices. The authors point out the importance of the copies of Bulgarian Patriarch Euthymios’ textual corpus which were made by the monks in Romanian principalities of Wallachia and Moldavia in the 15th-16th centuries, as these copies often present the earliest preserved witnesses of Euthymios’ literary legacy. The two scholars also discuss other texts concerning Balkan sainthood and Bulgarian history that have survived in manuscripts housed in the Library of Academy in Bucharest, such as Paisij of Hilandar’s Istorija slavenobolgarskaja and a Synaxarion narrative about the martyrs who died in the battle between the Byzantine Emperor Nicephorus Gennicus and the Bulgarian Khan Krum in the summer of 811 (which was part of the Verse Prolog/ Synaxarion translated in Tărnovo). | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=103939 |

It is well known that unlike the rich documentation of the heretic movements in Medieval Western Europe, the Slavic written sources about the Bogomils are very limited in their number and type. Apart from the famous Cosmas’ Treatise against the Bogomils from the end of the tenth – beginning of the eleventh century, most of the testimonies represent full or abridged translations of existing Greek originals. Nevertheless, it might be presumed that the Slavic priests and monks (who have been the main editors of the juridical miscellanies) undertook some modification, adaptation and additions. Moreover, in spite of the poor data about the Bogomils and the scarcity of the Bogomils’ original works, the treatment of their dogmas, of their religious and social behavior finds its expectable place in the texts of Canon Law. The collected examples of anti-heretical texts prove the large spreading of this heresy, its substantial role in the Bulgarian, South Slavic and Balkan milieu and reveal the attitude of the medieval society towards them. These texts are gathered especially from manuscripts in depositories in Romania and Russia, where these texts were copied until the seventeenth century. Two very precious units from Bulgarian book holdings – MS slav. 1160 from the Library of the Church Historical and Archaeological Institute (fourteenth century) and MS slav. 1117 from the National Library (fifteenth century), both in Sofia, are among the most important sources on Bogomils in the medieval Slavic studies. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=125078 |

It examines the metaphor of the ‘busy bee’ in three homilies of Gregory of Nazianzus and the Catena to Mt 9:1–8 (Gospel Homiliary, 26) and in the verse Eulogy to Tsar Symeon. Detailed examination of the lexical and morphological features of the five texts reveals that the translation of the Catena and the composition also must have had first-hand knowledge of the Slavonic translation of the homilies of St Gregory. The expression ‘easier to do smth. than the opposite’, which occurs in the treatise On the Letters (13:8–9) appears to be directly derived from the translation of St Gregory’s Funeral Oration for Basil the Great. And the description of the palaces of Preslav in John the Exarch’s Hexameron, 6, outright paraphrases its source, St. Gregory’s homily On the Love of the Poor. It might be presumed that both authors have participated in the translation of the Greek collection of 16 homilies of St. Gregory. These and other ‘incrustations’ in early Slavonic texts should be considered pointers to the training of the authors, for at this early stage erudition is more likely to have been acquired hands-on, i.e. in translation, than by mere reading. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=125066 |

The relevant entries have been interpreted in the context of the various forms of companionship and “fraternization”, characteristic of the European medieval tradition – both in Eastern, Byzantine and Slavic, and Western (mostly Benedictine) monasteries. Here, additional arguments are suggested with regard to the circumstances concerning the ordination of the two brothers. The conclusion is that although they did not belong to the monastic convent of Reichenau, Cyril, Methodius and their companions enjoyed the status of “spiritual brothers” in the monastery and thus belonged to a community exceeding the regional, ecclesiastical and political boundaries of their time. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=123550 | |

CHAI 1160 AND ITS IMPORTANCE FOR CANON LAW IN THE BALKANS DURING THE FOURTEENTH CENTURY: EXCERPTS FROM THE CANONS OF TRULLO Mariyana Tsibranska-Kostova (Abstract) This article explores the significance of the earliest extant collection of ecclesiastical legislation (1360s-1380s) in Bulgaria for the history of Byzantine Canon Law, and its reception in the Second Bulgarian Kingdom. Ms. 1160 of the Bulgarian Church-Historical and Archival Institute (CHAI) is one of the five Slavic exemplars of the fourteenth-century Byzantine prototype, conventionally known in Slavic studies as Pseudo-Zonaras, which is similar but not identical to the provincial Byzantine Nomocanon of Cotelerius. The content of the manuscript is richer than the textual core of the Nomocanon and includes texts with legal regulations for monks that are unknown in any other available copy. These unique texts highlight the codex’s currency in the fourteenth century, when monasticism was on the rise and its influence affected all aspects of social life. In that context, the note by the principal scribe of the manuscript, the monk-priest Simeon, was most likely placed after a text about the role of asceticism in order to emphasize the hesychast tendencies of the time when solitary ascetic life was of utmost value. The article examines closely the translation of one of these additional texts in the manuscript: a block of sixteen rules from the Council in Trullo, whose content is related to the general program of the collection. The linguistic analysis presented in this article reveals that it is an independent translation that does not correspond to the translation of the same rules in the Slavonic Kormchaia books, although it follows the general translation principles of the Nomocanon corpus. The article proposes that the main goal for compiling and translating Byzantine Canon Law texts in codex CHAI 1160 was to restore the Byzantine legal tradition after its decline during the years of Latin domination and to offer a comprehensive overview of current disciplinary penitential practices. It is hard to establish the precise historical context that engendered this translation, although its general orientation points toward the Palaiologan era in the first quarter of the fourteenth century when texts of Byzantine canonical and secular law were reintegrated. An edition of the sixteen canons of the Council in Trullo according to CHAI 1160 is published as an appendix. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=913270 |

SMS 466 of the 1420s. The copy shows a textual proximity to the earliest textual prototype in the eleventh-century Miscellany of Tsar Simeon (Izbornik of 1073), and linguistic changes at least some of which can be linked to the literary trends on Mount Athos or in the contact areas in the Balkans under the direct influence of Mount Athos in the early fifteenth century. A range of lexical variants between the two main sources is analyzed in the article. On the threshold of the changing cultural and historical context on the Balkans under Ottoman rule, miscellanies such as HM. SMS 466 became anthologies of South Slavic literature. Zones of strong Athonite influence were formed around Kratovo, Kosovo, Morava, the lands north of Skopje, and the dioceses of the Archbishopric of Ohrid, which sustained Slavic-Byzantine literary interactions.

The main source are the titles against the Iconoclasts, the Armenians, the Paulicians, and the Massalians in the Slavic translation of Panoplia Dogmatica by Euthymius Zigabenos, preserved only in the manuscript BAR Ms. slav. 296 from the Library of the Romanian Academy in Bucharest. The title against the Manicheans in manuscript HM.SMS 186 from the collection of the Chilandari Monastery on Mt Athos and the title against the Bogomils according to the edition of M. Popruzhenko (1899) are added as well. The aim is to summarize the means used for the creation of a negative image of heresies through language. The methods of selective lexical excerption and lexical-semantic analysis are applied. The core and the periphery of the nomination reflect such moral concepts that make heresies a category of culture. The lexicon against the other, the non-Orthodox, includes: lexemes marks for negative moral qualities – lie, hypocrisy, moral baseness, impiety, ungodliness, confusion, folly, debauchery; lexemes for nonverbal gestures; connotative periphrases; idioms and paroemias. In this way, the medieval anti-heretical polemic participates in the linguo-cultural conceptualisation of otherness.

Кн. 57-58 (2018), стр. 163–193. | URBAN LAW AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT IN SOUTH-SLAVIC CONTEXT Mariyana Tsibranska-Kostova (Abstract) The Byzantine Procheiros nomos, an official monument of secular law from 870‒879, has an unclear and convoluted history in the Slavic context. There is no extant complete translation of this text from the time of Tsar Simeon (893‒927); in the Nomocanon of 14 titles, translated in Preslav, there are only some excerpts from three of its titles. The first material witness to a complete Slavonic translation of the Procheiros is the Serbian Kormchaia of 1262 from Ilovitsa, which introduces also the Slavonic title of this legal corpus (“Закон градски,” or Urban Law), under which it later circulates in the Slavic milieu. Significantly, this title is not a calque of Πρόχειρος νόμος, but highlights the official character of the codex with its particular emphasis on the typical medieval urbanocentric notion of power.This article presents for discussion several terms referring to medieval architecture and urban development which are derived from the 38th title of the Procheiros. The author attempts to demonstrate how treating the medieval town as a complex symbol stimulated the terminological use of specific Slavonic words. At the same time, the urban perspective of the present study allows her lexical analysis to utilize the universality of Byzantine heritage in place of the traditional focus on ethnicity, linguistic domination, and opposition. The ultimate goal of this study is to reveal how this important monument of Byzantine secular power was adopted among the Slavs, enriching in the process the terminology of civic law. The article uses the following sources for comparison: MS HM. SMS 466 from the Hilandar Monastery on Mt. Athos; the Russian miscellany for judges Just Measure, and the official printed version of the Kormchaia (1650‒1653) from the time of Patriarchs Joasaph and Nikon. The complete Slavonic text of the title, according to the Ilovitskaia Kormchaia from 1262 is made available here for the first time in a typeset edition, for the benefit of future studies and/or contemporary translations into modern Bulgarian. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=718617 | |

Кн. 51 (2015), стр. 131–156. | OLD TESTAMENT EXCERPTS WITH JURIDICAL FUNCTION: TEXT HISTORY AND CULTURAL CODE MARIYANA TSIBRANSKA-KOSTOVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) The article aims to trace how the Old Testament compilation known in the Byzantine juridical literature as Νόμος Μοσαϊκός (Nomos Mosaïcos), or Moses’ Law (Laws), functions in the Slavonic translation, through what manuscript sources it was disseminated, and how it differs from other Slavonic translations of Old Testament books made for liturgical or non-liturgical (individual reading) purposes. The analysis is focused on the earliest known copy of this compilation from the Ilovik Kormchaia of 1262, which reproduces St. Sava’s Zakonopravilo (Legal Code) and is known as the South-Slavonic Kormchaia with commentary. In this fundamental compendium for all Balkan Slavs, Nomos Mosaïcos appears as Chapter 48, in the portion of the manuscript written by the copyist priest Bogdan, on leaves 249б–255а. Comparison of the Slavonic text to approximately 40 Byzantine copies from the 11th through the 16th centuries reveals two main typological peculiarities. First, the translation and text history of Nomos Mosaïcos exhibit in Slavic milieu an independence similar to that of other, secular, Byzantine legal texts (e. g., the Ecloga, Procheiros nomos, Nomos Georgikos). Second, it was copied mostly within the Kormchaia, which became for the Slavs the natural context for reproducing Old Testament normative legal texts. Its presence in the Kormchaia culturally codes not only the prestige of Old Testament law as eternal model and norm and the influence of the Greek prototype upon the Slavonic translator(s) (the closest Byzantine counterpart is Vat.gr.1167), but also the need to establish a legal basis for the new Serbian Archbishopric of 1219-1220. On the other hand, the fact that a copy of Nomos Mosaïcos appears in the Ilovik Kormchaia allows us to explore the tradition of Slavonic Old Testament excerpts back to the 13th c,, almost a century prior to the date of the first extant Slavonic translation of the Pentateuch. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=341266 | |

The book has not been subjected to digitalization or facsimile reproduction yet. The current analy¬sis is based on the full Leiden University copy № 1370G21 from Joseph Justus Scaliger’s collection, testifying to the presence of the Balkan popular traditions, attested mostly in the topographic environment of the commemorations. At the same time, the Calendar offers a relatively complete picture of the 16th century Southern Slavic pantheon of saints. Another specific feature of the Calendar is the cult of St. Rocco (23.08), and the cult of St. Nicolas of Myra’s uncle (30.06), which reflects local worship traditions. In conclusions, the article searches the relations between Yakov’s calendar and the cultural heritage of the Greek-Slavic Orthodox community in Venice, as well as with the Serbian Diaspora from Adriatic coast, and finally with the Mount Athos’ s tradition. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=103928 | |

Slav. 954) from the National Library “SS. Cyril and Methodius” in Sofia and the MS 67 from Dečani monastery, now in the National Library of Serbia in Belgrade. They are both rare representatives of the historical development of the Slavonic Trebnik before the post-Byzantine period. The copies are submitted to a close study in order to find out the similarities and the differences in the structure of the confessional rite in three of its sections: the Questionnaire for men and women; the Prayer’s repertorium; and the abridged redaction of John the Faster’s Kanonarion. The last part exists only in Deč. 67 and reveals tangible traces of the first Old Slavonic translation of the Greek prototype, most likely undertaken in Eastern Bulgaria and connected to the Preslav literary school. The greatest similarity is established in the Questionnaire, when rare lexical uses (such as, for instance, лошады) have been preserved in both copies. Deč. 67 sheds supplementary light on the meaning and the grammatical form of several words, helping the revision of the current opinions and opening up the discussion about the probable origin of the text archetype. It remains a facultative component of the Rite. In addition, the abridged version of John the Faster’s Kanonarion is published according to MS Deč. 67. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=196289 | |

It is well known that unlike the rich documentation of the heretic movements in Medieval Western Europe, the Slavic written sources about the Bogomils are very limited in their number and type. Apart from the famous Cosmas’ Treatise against the Bogomils from the end of the tenth – beginning of the eleventh century, most of the testimonies represent full or abridged translations of existing Greek originals. Nevertheless, it might be presumed that the Slavic priests and monks (who have been the main editors of the juridical miscellanies) undertook some modification, adaptation and additions. Moreover, in spite of the poor data about the Bogomils and the scarcity of the Bogomils’ original works, the treatment of their dogmas, of their religious and social behavior finds its expectable place in the texts of Canon Law. The collected examples of anti-heretical texts prove the large spreading of this heresy, its substantial role in the Bulgarian, South Slavic and Balkan milieu and reveal the attitude of the medieval society towards them. These texts are gathered especially from manuscripts in depositories in Romania and Russia, where these texts were copied until the seventeenth century. Two very precious units from Bulgarian book holdings – MS slav. 1160 from the Library of the Church Historical and Archaeological Institute (fourteenth century) and MS slav. 1117 from the National Library (fifteenth century), both in Sofia, are among the most important sources on Bogomils in the medieval Slavic studies. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=125078 | |

Along with the Glagolitic copy and the most archaic Cyrillic one from the Ustjug Kormčaja (dating from the thirteenth-fourteenth century), the numerous transcripts of this text reveal its broad application and transmission in the South-Slavic linguistic environment. The preserved copies predominantly date from the fourteenth to the seventeenth century and contain only excerpts from the original corpus. The analysis is focused on some controversial readings that have already provoked the attention of the scholars. The apparatus of linguistic (especially lexical) discrepancies among different copies attests some significant features that enlighten the process of textual adoption. The manuscript tradition of the Commandments gives supplementary arguments for answering the questions about the time, place, and authorship of the Slavic translation and about the literary tradition this text belonged to. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=81389 |

In this monastery, Euthymios was educated according to the principles of Gregory of Sinai’s new spiritual school and soon became a teacher of the younger monks. Studying some ascetic monastic South Slavic miscellanies related to the Kefalarevo monastery and to Gregory’s monastery (Paroria), we were able to understand the spiritual scene and Euthymios’ monastic education and, in general, the life in these monasteries. The miscellanies that have been analyzed include works of contemporary writers: Pseudo-Symeon the New Theologian, author of the Three Methods of Prayer, Nikephoros of Mount Athos (13th century) and Gregory of Sinai himself. In their works these three authors explicitely refer to a number of previous writers and texts, that reflect, in a certain sense, the entire history of the Byzantine spirituality. Along with the contemporary works, these miscellanies comprise also works of various earlier authors, starting from Ephrem the Syrian, Evagrios of Pontus and Pseudo-Makarios of Egypt (4th century) to Isaiah of Gaza and Mark the Monk (5th century). They also include excerpts from various Paterika (especially those from the Collective (Svodnyi) Paterikon, that was presumably written in the 14th century) and passages by Zosimas (6th century). There are found as well authors from the 7th century, such as Athanasios of Sinai, Thalassios of Caesarea and Maximos the Confessor. Theodore of Edessa’s writings (11th century) can be seen as a sort of synthesis of the previous ones. Philotheos of Sinai (10th century), Symeon the New Theologian and Niketas Stethatos (11th century) represent the second stage of the Byzantine mysticism. Finally, Hesychios of Sinai (12th century) anticipates the spititual renaissance of the 13th and 14th centuries. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=196292 |

CONSTANTINE-CYRIL MAYA IVANOVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) When one studies the manuscript history of the Long Vita of St. Constantine-Cyril special interest is evoked by the monastery collections in which we find copies of this vita. The paper presents four complete Cyrillic copies of the Long Vita from the collection of the Solovetskiy Monastery (now kept in fund 717 in the Russian National Library in Saint Petersburg): Sol. 503/522 – in a Reading Menaion from the end of the 15th century; Sol. 501/520 – in a Reading Menaion from the 16th century (June 1562 – September 1569); Sol. 509/528 – in a Reading Menaion from the 16th century; Sol. 502/521 – in a Reading Menaion from the 17th century (1647) and one compilation made up of the Long Vita and the Prologue Vita of Cyril: Sol. 849/959 in a Collection of vitae and discourses from the 17th century. The four Solovetskiy Monastery copies are representatives of the October copyist tradition, though one of them is in a February Reading Menaion (Sol. 509/528), and all of them without exception are united by a number of peculiarities characteristic of the group. With regard to the lexical content, however, the Solovetskiy Monastery October tradition is uniform. No special attention has been paid to this so far. If one assumes that the same text lies in the basis of the four copies, from the 15th to the 17th centuries it was subjected to changes, which gives us ground to distinguish three branches: 1. Sol. 501/520 is absolutely identical with the preceding October pre-Makary and Makary copies and of all Solovetskiy Monastery copies it is nearest to the “classical” October model; 2. Sol. 509/528 deviates from Sol. 501/ 520, because of the corrections, which are visible in some places and which have been brought into the February model; 3. Sol. 502/521 and Sol. 503/522 (the second stratum, which gives ultimately its complete characteristic) coalesce. To make what has been said clear I shall point out that lexical comparison takes place both within the framework of the Solovetskiy Monastery copies and with a representative of the February Reading Menaion tradition. The Solovetskiy Monastery compilation (Sol. 849/959) will not be discussed as a separate copy, because it does not have the structure of a complete copy (after I became familiar with its textological characteristics I decided to exclude it definitively from the group of the complete Cyrillic copies). The paper draws the conclusion that as has been shown by the Solovetskiy Monastery copies, work on the manuscripts in the monasteries has not kept the tradition in its pure theoretical form. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=81385 | |

CONSTANTINE CYRIL IN THE RUSSIAN PRE-MAKARIOS READING MENAIA MAYA IVANOVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) The present article deals with a small group of Russian copies of the Life of St. Constantine Cyril (abbreviated as LC) from the end of the fifteenth century incorporated in the Reading Menaia for October. The veneration of St. Cyril on October 14th is regarded as a fact and the issue of its origin has not been discussed. The author traces back the way this feast date came into being and won recognition in the pre-Makarios Reading Menaia. The posing of this particular problem inevitably leads to the necessity to analyse and compare the arrangement of the Russian pre-Makarios Reading Menaia which include the LC. The next step is the collation of the transcripts from the pre-Makarios Reading Menaia with those included in the Reading Menaia after Metropolitan Makarios’ reform (after the sixteenth century), for October and February respectively. The results of the text-critical work reveal that there is no distinct boundary between the transcripts in the Reading Menaia for October and for February | http://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=211036 | |

A collation of the transcripts reveals that this legend was rendered into Slavic only once. The translation is extant in a limited number of Serbian and Bulgarian manuscripts, while it has not survived in the Russian tradition. It could be positively stated that the translation was made in Preslav during the 10th or 11th century, since its language bears clear traces of norms typical of that period and region (archaic grammatical forms, rare lexis, Hunno-Bulgarian loan-words, etc.). In the course of time this initial translation underwent changes leading to two independent recensions. The analysis shows that both are of equal value for the reconstruction of the protograph. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=106771 | |

This MS reveals close similarities to two other transcripts of the Letovnik – to the only known Bulgarian copy (Moscow, RGB, Museum collection, N 42, 15th c.) and to a second Moldavian one (Moscow, RGB, f. 178, Museum collection, N 921, 16th c.). The three MSS share the same peculiarities as opposed to the facsimile edition made after a fourteenth-century Serbian copy: the preface, the fourth chapter (dedicated to the Byzantine emperors), as well as the exact same passages from within are omitted; the segmentation of text and the titles of the subchapters coincide (while they are different in the Serbain copy); the bigger numbers (for hundreds and thousands) are written in words, while in the Serbian MS they are transmitted entirely with letters. The similarities of the Bulgarian and the two Moldavian codices could be traced also on the level of their content – the Letovnik is followed by the same set of texts (most of them taken from the second Slavic translation of the Historical Palaea) and thus point to a different type of historical book, in the frames of which the Letovnik (or, rather, a part of it) has been transmitted. It should be noted that the MS from the Holy Synod in Bucharest reveals the initial structure of this book and the full set of the texts included, since the ends of RGB 42 and RGB 921 have been lost. A further detail collation of these three codices, on the one hand, and their juxtaposition to the preserved Serbian copies, on the other, could shed more light on their mutual relations and on the history of the second Slavonic translation of the Letovnik. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=123542 | |

MARINA OF ANTIOCH) MAYA PETROVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) This article is an attempt to identify the martyrs mentioned in the small ceramic fragments discovered in Preslav that had once accompanied pieces of saints’ relics. Bearing in mind the strong connection between the translation of relics and the production of texts, the author examines the literary tradition of these saints in the oldest South-Slavic manuscripts searching for some traces of their veneration. One of the saints seems to be entirely missing from the Slavic tradition and appears quite rarely in Greek sources. Thus, it is suggested that the relics stored in Preslav belonged to St. Marina of Antioch (who in the tenth century was already popular on the Balkans), rather than to St. Maria of Antioch. Furthermore, with the exception of Maria of Antioch, all the saints named in the ceramic “labels” were patrons of churches or monasteries in and around Constantinople (for some of these churches and monasteries it is explicitly stated that they had possessed the relics of those saints). Since it is clear that all the pieces of the relics came to the Bulgarian capital together, it is more likely that they were brought there either as a result of some of the triumphal victories of Tsar Symeon (for instance, in 922 his army devastated the surroundings of Constantinople and destroyed the monasteries of Theotokos τη̃ς Πηγη̃ς) or as a special gift during the reign of his son, Tsar Peter, who married a Byzantine princess and made long-lasting piece with Byzantium. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=45499 | |

This text undoubtedly represents an early Slavic translation (initially written in Glagolitic script) from a hitherto unknown original, probably a branch of the tradition of the so-called Passion of St. Marina by Theotimus (BHG 1165‒1167), but significantly shortened, devoid of the most fantastic moments and containing specific characteristics, e.g. the author's name is Timotheus (instead of Theotimus), the title of the saint’s torturer Olybrius is praepositus, and others. The version is found in Croatian Glagolitic fragments and in several Serbian copies from the fourteenth to the sixteenth century (most of them also in fragments). A comparison of the copies of the so-called Passion of St. Marina, on the one hand, testifies that they undoubtedly ascend to a common protograph, and on the other, reveals the great variability of the text typical of works with long manuscript transmissions and especially of those that become part of the low-level literature. On the basis of the available source material, it seems most likely that this Passion was translated from Greek by the disciples of Cyril and Methodius in Bulgaria. The text displays interesting lexical and grammatical features, only part of which being marked and analysed here. An edition of the earlier of the two preserved complete copies is provided (MS 219 from the Patriarchal Library in Belgrade from 1381).

The Greek original of this Life is unknown. This text is now preserved in a few Bulgarian, Serbian and Moldovian manuscripts, dating from the end of the 14th to the beginning of the 16th centuries. Its Slavonic translation has been made during the Middle-Bulgarian period, most probably in Tărnovo, as a result of the dissemination St Theophano’s cult after the transfer of some of her relics to the Bulgarian capital. The full text of the Life of St Theophano the Empress is published according to its copy preserved in the Zagreb miscellany from 1469 written and compiled by Vladislav the Grammarian.

This seemingly improbable Bulgarian victory turned out to be so complete as to appear miraculous to its contemporaries. Byzantine sources explain it as a just punishment of Epirus’ Emperor Theodore Komnenos, who breached the peace treaty with Ivan Asen II and invaded Bulgarian territories with an enormous army. Yet the only Bulgarian source for this encounter, the Tărnovo inscription, attributes Ivan Asen’s victory to the help of the Forty Martyrs of Sebaste. In modern historical writings this evidence is unanimously interpreted as an indication that the battle took place on 9 March, the feast date of the saints. It is very likely, however, that the mention of the Forty Martyrs in the inscription has not only chronological, but also ideological meaning. The article examines the information from the Tărnovo inscription in the context of the cult of the Forty Martyrs in Byzantium (where they were particularly honoured by the imperial court) and in medieval Bulgaria, as well as in relation to their veneration as victorious helpers in battles. Attention is paid to the claim on the Forty martyrs’ patronage as a piece of propaganda and a proof for the religious sanction of Ivan Asen’s rule. It is viewed as a constituent part of the policy of Asenid dynasty for securing of powerful heavenly patrons for the state by “taking over” the cults of important Christian saints, promoting their (real or invented) Bulgarian origin, and translating saints’ relics to the new capital of Tărnovo. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=340860 | |
| Мая Петрова - Танева | (София) – Неизвестен източник на Изборника от 1076 г.: една непозната славянска версия на житието на св. Теодора Александрийска. Кн. 47 (2013), стр. 11–45. | A NEW SOURCE OF THE IZBORNIK OF 1076: AN UNKNOWN SLAVIC VERSION OF THE LIFE OF ST THEODORA OF ALEXANDRIA MAYA PETROVA-TANEVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) The article introduces to scholarship and examines the peculiarities of an unknown Slavic version of the Life of St Theodora of Alexandria. This text is incorporated (along with a great number of early Slavic translations of hagiographic narratives and some original Old-Bulgarian works) in the September section of a Russian Reading Menaion from the first quarter of the 16th century originating from the Suprasl Monastery – MS F 19-79 from the Library of the Lithuanian Academy of sciences in Vilnius. Until now the full text of the Pre-Metaphrastic Life of St Theodora was known in a single Slavic translation (referred to as translation A in the article). Translation A reveals many archaic language traits, it is included in the South-Slavic Reading Menaia of the old redaction structured according to the Studite Typikon (the so-called Preslav Reading Menaia), in many miscellanies (such as the Sevasjanov Sbornik and the Bdinski Sbornik), in different Paterika collections. Translation A is widely disseminated in Bulgarian, Serbian and Russian medieval manuscripts. The version of St Theodora’s Life found the Vilnius codex is substantially different from the popular one. It is evident that it is a result of a Slavic translation (referred as translation B) made from another Greek original. The analysis of its language, along with some typical numerical discrepancies, suggests that translation B appeared in Bulgarian linguistic milieu, that it belongs to legacy of Preslav literary school and was most probably initially written down with Glagolitic script. Crucial evidence in this respect is the textual identity of the Chapter 12, Theodora’s Instruction [to her son], in the Izbornik of 1076 and the relevant part of St Theodora’s Life in the Vilnius codex. We could only guess why in Preslav in the 10th century the Life of St Theodora was translated anew, in the frames of what kind of manuscript was this translation made and why did it remain isolated in the Slavic tradition. It is however clear that Theodora’s Instruction [to her son] in the Izbornik of 1076 is a fragment of a previously existing Slavic translation and that, like most of the excerpts included in it, in the course of Izbornik’s compilation the text was slightly edited and subjected to adaptation. The full text of St Theodora’s Life from the Vilnius codex is published as an appendix to the article. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=103936 |

This material is related to the registration of the commemorations of dead people (most often on the fortieth day after the death) and of the names of living people (read in the hope of obtaining good health) during the liturgy. The commemoration lists of names were carried on by Decani monks during the seventeenth, eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Commemorations were paid in money and in nature that specially shows the social status and wealth of the registered people. The donations were often not so small, especially from the Bulgarian pilgrims (hadzhii) and wealthy people (chorbadzhii). The material confirms vivid Serbo-Bulgarian relations during the Middle Ages and the Turkish period. Therefore this work is one more supplement to the study of these important historical relations which were not specially commented on this occasion. | http://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=210997 |

Кн. 67-68 (2023), стр. 210-266. | AN OVERVIEW OF THE LITERARY LIFE OF SERRES IN THE 1360S WITH A CASE STUDY: KYR THEODORE PEDIASIMOS’S THEOREMS ON THE NIMBI OF THE SAINTS Nina Gagova Keywords: Serbian domination in Serres, 1345–1371; Theodore Pediasimos; Theorems on the Nimbi of the Saints; Byzantine philosophy in the fourteenth century; Slavonic translations of Byzantine philosophers Abstract: In the first part of the article, the extant scarce, and mostly indirect data about literary life in Serres during the Serbian domination in the region between 1345 and 1371 are collected and analyzed. An overview of the administrative policy of the Serbian rulers and the dynamics of the ecclesiastical subordination of the dioceses of the Serres region is offered, as well as of the donation activity of the important families and the influence of the proximity to Mount Athos and of the spread of Hesychasm. The importance is shown of Serres as a political and spiritual centre in the period under review – a centre where a lively exchange of theological ideas, cultural models, and texts took place, and where the paths of some of the most prominent representatives of the political and cultural elite of the Balkans in the fourteenth century crossed. The possibility that there was a Slavic literary centre in Serres is discussed through an analysis of the connections with other manuscripts and centres of several manuscripts certainly or presumably produced in Serres: The Four Gospels of metropolitan Jacob of Serres, 1354 (British Library, Add. MS 39626), and two autographs of the Slavonic translations prepared in the same literary circle – the Corpus of Pseudo-Dionysios Aeropagite with the commentaries by Maximos the Confessor, 1371, made by the elder Isaiah on commission of metropolitan Theodosios of Serres (RNB, Gilf. 46), and the Homilies of Gregory Palamas and Barlaam of Calabria, made by two anonymous translators (Deč. 88). The conclusion is drawn on the basis of the analysis, that at least two literary phenomena representative of the fourteenth century were very probably related to Serres (without being precisely localized): 1) the group of luxurious Bulgarian and Serbian manuscripts of the 1340s–1360s, related to the Four Gospels of metropolitan Jacob of Serres; 2) the translation circle of the elder Isaiah and his colleagues in which Gilf. 46 and Deč. 88 were produced, each of them containing the Slavonic translation of a work by a contemporary Byzantine author associated with Serres (Theodore Pediasimos and George Glabas). The second part of the article is dedicated to the text of one Byzantine philosopher working in Serres about the mid-fourteenth century – Theodore Pediasimos’s Theorems on the Nimbi of the Saints, whose translation (an excerpt from the Greek text) is a unique example of the Byzantine genre for the Slavonic repertoire, and whose presence as an appendix to the Areopagite Corpus raises interesting questions regarding the adaptation of Byzantine philosophical concepts relevant to it in a South Slavic environment. The content of the complete Greek text is presented together with some of its commentaries in the scholarly literature and a brief analysis of the Slavonic translator’s selection. The Appendix offers a translation of the Slavonic text into modern Bulgarian, based on its earliest copy (RGB, f. 173, No. 144), together with a digital copy of the manuscript text. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=1198316 | |

NICHOLAS FROM MYRA TO BARI IN THE SLAVIC ORTHODOX TRADITION: AN UNKNOWN VERSION OF THE PANEGYRIC FOR THE FEAST Nina Gagova (Abstract) The article examines the introduction of the feast Translation of the Relics of St. Nicholas from Myra to Bari in the Slavic Orthodox tradition and the inclusion of related texts in the Slavic (Cyrillic) repertory, with an emphasis on the narratives of the translation. We analyze data from calendars, where the feast is attested from mid13th century onward, as critically examine the origin and dating of texts circulating in South Slavic and Russian copies since the 14th century. Special attention is given to the received opinion that both the feast itself and the purported principal text related to it (the so-called Discourse for the translation of the relics of St. Nicholas from the end of the 11th century) are of Russian origin. The relation of this text to the other two existing narratives (Legend from the Prologue, and Tale) is subjected to critical reconsideration. In the Appendix, we publish and analyze a previously unknown version of the Discourse found in MS no. 105, fol. 19, from the Library of the Lithuanian Academy of Sciences in Vilnius (the text is provided in a parallel edition alongside the version from the Reading Menologia of Makarius). Based on analysis of the available sources, we conclude that the feast and its companion texts were introduced into the Slavic Orthodox repertory in the Balkans, most probably in the last quarter of the 12th century or the first quarter of the 13th century. This conclusion is supported by both the historical context of Slavic cultural contacts with Southern Italy and by the texts' middle-Bulgarian linguistic features. At this stage of the study, we cannot consider this issue resolved, but it is clear, in light of the new discoveries, that the traditional claim about the Russian origin of the feast and the texts cannot be maintained any longer. | http://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=809504 | |

NICHOLAS – INTERCESSOR FOR THE HUMAN SOULS ON THE DAY OF JUDGMENT NINA GAGOVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) The article discusses the notion of the St. Nicholas as an intercessor for the human souls on the Judgment Day. In her monograph The Life of Saint Nicholas in Byzantine Art N. Р. Ševčenko analyses the frequent choice of St. Nicholas as a patron saint, especially of the burial churches and church spaces, as well as some special arrangements of his painted portraits, including a modified Deesis composition in which St. Nicholas has replaced John the Baptist. It does seem possible that this notion originated from two hagiographical texts about the saint – (1) a fragment from the Vita Nicolai Sinaitae, containing a Vision of St. Nicholas about the Last Day and its explanation in another vision; and (2) a Prayer of the saint “when an angel comes for his soul” from the Povest o pogrebenii/Story about the burial of the St. Nicholas/. The article seeks to explain the dissimilarity between the medieval Greek and the South-Slavic practices noted by N.Р. Ševčenko with the differences in the popularity and the dissemination of the medieval texts dedicated to the saint. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=6936 | |

Its first part studies the usage of Biblical elements (citations and comparisons) in the Live’s Preface which reveal “the introduction of the described realities in the Sacred history of the world” (A. Naumow). Its second part traces the meaning of the “genre/genres”, according to which the text of Constantine of Kostenec was constructed (K. Stantchev). The conclusion compares the results of these two interpretative strategies that reveal the author’s ideas about Despot Stephan Lazarević and cast light on the main peculiarities of his Life’s composition and style. It is assumed that the method of approach chosen by Constantine of Kostenec (an evidence of his professionalism and acquaintance with the Byzantine models of the so-called highbrow literature) had defined the way the Life was perceived and was decisive for the way it functioned in medieval literature. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=123518 | |

The article pays special attention to Constantine’s position in the Serbian court and his conflict with the clergy because of their desire to control the production of books, the content of the texts, and the education of pupils. The author puts forward the hypothesis that the Skazanije could be regarded as a “project proposal” for the normalization of the Serbian orthography in order to guarantee the correct transmission of the meaning of the texts created in the frames of another project – the new translation of the Old Testament non-liturgical books, undertaken by Hilandar monks under the auspices of the Serbian despotes. All arguments supporting the existence of the “Old Testament project” of Stephen Lazarević are systematically presented. The suggestion is made that in Serbia the introduction of the Ressavian orthographic norm was connected to this particular initiative (in contrast, in Bulgaria the reforms in orthography and liturgy went hand in hand). | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=45503 | |

Кн. 33–34 (2005), стр. 289–304. | THE THEOPHANY OF THE TOMIC PSALTER AND SOME PECULIARITIES OF THE HESYCHASTIC TRINITY DOCTRINE IN ONE TEXT BY JOHN KANTAKOUZENOS NINA GAGOVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) This paper examines the well-known full-page miniature on f. 129r in Tomic Psalter (Moscow, GIM, Muz. 2752) commissioned by an unknown Bulgarian aristocrat (by Tsar John Alexander himself?) in 1360s or early 1370s. The composition of the images is analysed from the point of view of the hesychastic Trinity doctrine demonstrated in John Kantakouzenos’ dialogue Contra Iudeam (Slavic translation from 1390s). An interpretation of the main image of the composition as following the iconographic type Paternitas (Otechestvo) is proposed. It reveals hesychasts’ special stress on the „threehypostasis- ness“ and „paternitas“ in the Holy Trinity (just like in the relation between the „monarchy“ of the Father and the „monarchy“ of the King). The placement of the miniature in the middle of the Psalter (between psalms 76 and 77) expresses its polemical essence and provides an evidence of the possible immediate reason that gave birth to this commission. Such a composition could be contemplated in the circle of the former emperor following eleventh-century models (and patterns?). They appeared after the Great Schism. Most likely Southern Slavs got acquainted with these models in some of the common Byzantine-Slavic cultural centres (such as Constantinople, Mount Athos, Serres). | http://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=211015 |

Mladenova (Calgary) Abstract The article describes the content of the Hilandar manuscript 193, written in the vernacular, and places it in the context of Bulgarian damaskins. The author argues that it is counterproductive to insist on the narrow definition of ‘damaskin’, which denies the right of such manuscripts to be treated together with prototypical damaskins. The manuscript contains one of the three known complete handwritten copies of a miscellany with a focus on spiritually beneficial tales and apocrypha, most of which also circulated prior to their inclusion into the set of five texts that was copied together. The comparison of the most recent of the stories – that about the secret servant of God St. Euphrosynus the Cook – with the older Church Slavonic and Greek textual traditions, makes it possible to capture the specificity of the Early Modern Bulgarian version. In contrast with the older tradition, in which Euphrosynus figures as a despised simpleton, the Early Modern Bulgarian version shows him as a literate man respected from the outset by his brethren. The author suggests that the new image of the saint is in line with the tremendous value attached to literacy and education in the intellectual circles to which the compiler belonged. It is in those circles that the cult of the Slavic Apostles St. St. Cyril and Methodius would eventually be reintroduced among Bulgarians as their national symbol. The distribution of the frescoes, representing Euphrosynus in the Orthodox cultural space, overlaps with that of the miscellanies under discussion only in Mount Athos, which leads the author to believe that the prototype of those miscellanies must have come into being there.

NIKOLA FROM SOFIA) OLYA GRIGOROVA (BLAGOEVGRAD) (Abstract) The paper discusses the relations between everyday life and religious practices among Christians and Muslims in the town Sofia during the XVI century, based on the vita of St. Nikola of Sofia. The Saint was a shoemaker, who came to Sofia from the town of Yannina, to in search of professional accomplishment. The Christians and the Muslims of the town shared common activities, and were united in common professional groups on a daily basis. St Nikola of Sofia was a respected shoemaker. In his trade he had good relations with the other craftsmen and had no problem with Muslims and their religious practices. The conflict began when the Muslims by tricks, based on everyday life intimacy, tried to turn St. Nikola into a Muslim. Nikola’s impatient and insulting denial of the Islam made them require his death penalty. The Christians accepted his death as a salvation and an extreme act of religious piety that served as a compelling example. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=6933 |

In the manuscripts with copies of the office under review, one finds hymnographic components of the earliest office in Dragan’s Menaion (the kathisma, kontakion, oikos and photagogikon, the stichera for Great Vespers and the three stichera of the Lauds), but the canons in this office are different from the canon in Dragan’s Menaion. The first canon in this office is from the so-called Vidin (Bdin) office for St Petka of Tarnovo and the motif of the translation of her relics is mentioned in it for the first time, while the second canon is in the fourth tone. In structural and textological terms, the office under review here contains new hymnographic components that are not known in South Slavic copies. The present study is based on ten manuscripts in the National Library in Warsaw. For the time being, it is difficult to determine when and where this office for St Petka was written and translated, and how it reached the Kingdom of Poland. One can only assume that it was written on the occasion of the deposition of the saint’s relics in a church dedicated to her in the sixteenth century (perhaps in Constantinople) and subsequently translated, I believe, most probably in Romania, in connection with the final deposition of her relics. There is no doubt that the canon in the fourth tone and the whole office were written specifically for a church dedicated to the venerable saint. An Appendix presents the text of the office as copied in a sixteenth-century manuscript, Akc. 2855, in the National Library in Warsaw.

PARASKEVE OF TĂRNOVO IN BULGARIAN AND SERBIAN LITERARY TRADITION FROM THE THIRTEENTH TO THE FIFTEENTH CENTURIES RADOSLAVA STANKOVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) The paper offers a comprehensive picture of the earliest calendar commemo¬rations and literary sources which demonstrate the establishment of cult of St. Paraskeve of Tărnovo (Paraskeve of Epibatai) among Bulgarians and Serbs from the 13th century on. The saint is first mentioned in the calendars of Gospels and Apostolos Synaxaria, Psalters and in a Prayer-book. The paper also discusses the versions of the (short) Prolog vitae of St. Paraskeve and gives an account of their copies in Prologs and Menaia from 14th and 15th centuries. Further, there is also a troparion commemorating the St. Paraskeve in the Prolog. In the Versified Prolog, the short vita is copied without the Prolog verses, which, however, could be found in the Menaion copies of the saint’s Office. The paper offers a detailed scrutiny of texts from the 13th to the 15th centuries which present the three recensions of the Saint’s Office. The Serbian copies are prevailing, especially in the manuscripts associated with the Hilandar monastery at Mount Athos. The last part of the paper focuses on the represantional devices (tropes) used in the texts on St. Paraskeve. It demonstrates the similarities in the poetics and the differences in the stylistics of the two genres – namely, the short vita and the office. The author suggests that the comparative study of the representation of the saint in the hagiographic and hymnographic works could answer important questions, such as: How have the liturgical texts been changed, revised and reconsidered through the centuries within the ritual to acquire a new meaning?; Why and at what point were the new texts created? | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=103929 | |

PARASKEVЕ OF EPIBATAI (PETKA OF TĂRNOVO) IN SOUTH-SLAVIC MANUSCRIPTS FROM THE 14th AND 15th CENTURIES RADOSLAVA STANKOVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) The article discusses the prologue vitae of the popular South Slavic anchorite saint St. Paraskeve (Petka) in Bulgarian and Serbian copies from the 14th-15th c. There are two such (pre-Euthymian) prologue vitae known so far – the first extant in twenty copies, the second only in three. These texts can be found in two types of books – in the Versified Prologue (in its Tărnovo version) and in the Menaion, while the Prologue vita is not included in the old recension of the South Slavic Prologue (the so-called Simple Prologue), where only the dismissal troparion from the saint’s service is inserted. Since the Menaion copies of the vita have not been subject to research so far, two such copies from the 14th c. and ten from the 15th c. are being treated in the article. In the course of the research two tercets could be made out which precede this type of vitae in the Menaion, while there are no verses in the Prologue. It could be established that the First Prologue vita of St. Petka is more commonly used and is incorporated both in the Prologue and in the Menaion, while except for minor variations the text is the same. The Second Prologue vita is known only in one copy from the discussed period and in two from the 16th c., published in Menaia. It also turns out that there is no connection between the Prologue text and the recension of the service in which it is placed. An edition of the texts of the two vitae is provided in the appendices. As can be seen, there are no significant variants to be observed in the First prologue vita so there are no grounds for distinguishing of two separate recensions. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=106765 | |

HISTORIC PRECONDITIONS AND ICONOGRAPHIC CHARACTERISTICS RALITSA ROUSSEVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) The cult of the Holy Fifteen Martyrs of Strumitsa has a significant presence in the medieval literature, which does not have a reflection on their iconography. Their first depiction is from the martyrdom Church in Strumitsa (the 9th -10th century), which remains the only one up until the 19th century, and therefore there is no tradition of visually representing these saints as such. Up until recently there was only one publication of their icon from Radovish (1828) and one engraving from Mount Athos (1866). The present study attributes the engraving to the works of the engraver Anthimos of Peloponnese, of whom about ten other works are known. For the first time three icons of the Holy Fifteen Martyrs of Strumitsa from the Rhodope Mountains from the middle of the 19th century have been studied (one from the village Pelevun and two from Topolovgrad). The pictorial aspect of the cult of the Holy Fifteen Martyrs of Strumitsa has been created, or rather regenerated in the 19th century. After nine centuries of absence of their images from the iconographic repertoire of the Orthodox painting it appeared again. The new visual realization of their cult could be explained through the activity of Gregorios Visantios, bishop of Strumitsa (1818‒1830) and Adrianopolis (1830‒1840), who has not only reprinted their Akolouthia in Constantinople, but most possibly has transferred their cult from Strumitsa to the region of the Rhodope Mountains and Mount Athos. Despite the fact, that they are from different parts of the Balkans (Strumitsa, the Rhodope mountains, Mount Athos), all examined images are following a common iconographic model and have most possibly a common prototype, which presumes the existence of a popular enough image of the Holy Fifteen martyrs of Strumitsa with established iconography before 1828. This could be a printed graphic image – print or engraving in a printed edition, which in the 18th and 19th century often served as a iconographic model for paintings. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=6941 |

The newly found manuscript copy was discovered in a service book from the first half of the 16th century, currently held in The Princes Czartoryski Library in Cracow (Poland) as Czart. 11788, and differs substantially from the previously known copies, since it contains a considerably larger number of troparia. The article provides the incipits of all stanzas of the canon according to the available manuscript witnesses. Based on new information from Czart. 11788, the author offers some reflections on previous attempts to reconstruct the canon’s acrostic, and on possible reasons behind the significant differences among the four copies. Much attention is devoted to searching for a putative Byzantine source of the Old Bulgarian canon, which, despite all the effort invested, has yet to be identified. The article contains a checklist of Greek funeral canons in the sixth tone, derived from printed and handwritten sources. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=588421 | |

The article summarizes Popov’s views on some principal theoretical problems, such as: the function and significance of the acrostic, the reasons for the flowering of the Old Bulgarian original hymnography in the ninth century, the specificity of the hymnographic text as a synthesis of original and translated components, etc. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=125083 | |

The comparison is constructed on the basis of the concept of Christian memory. For this purpose, a brief formulation of the Orthodox views on this question is propounded. According to this formulation Christian memory could be examined from two general aspects – church memory and individual memory. The works analysed from this perspective contain two quite different manifestations of memory. In the Great Lent Cycle church memory and individual memory interpenetrate and time spans the whole human history, while in the acrostic fragments of the funeral chants by Constantine of Preslav time is compressed to a single static moment – the moment straight after death, enclosed in the intimate borders of the individual human memory. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=81393 |

Кн. 43–44 (2010), стр. 38–95. | TEXTOLOGICAL PROBLEMS OF THE OLD BULGARIAN TRANSLATION OF GEORGE HAMARTOLOS’ CHRONICON ROSTISLAV STANKOV (SOFIA) (S u m m a r y) Textological problems of the early Slavonic translation of George Hamartolos’ Chronicon (Old Bulgarian in its origin) so far have been discussed in the studies of several scholars. In the beginning an attention is paid to V. A. Matveenko – L. I. Ščegoleva’s hypothesis that a collation of translation with the Greek original might have taken place. The analysis of Matveenko-Shchegoleva’s examples shows that there is no evidence for such a collation. Basically the study examines the textological method and main conclusions of V. M. Istrin and O. V. Tvorogov. The analysis reveals that all the eight Old Russian copies of George Hamartolos’ Chronicon in Istrin’s edition have common textual variants. Istrin’s division of copies into two groups (further subdivided into two versions) opposed to Tr (Troice-Sergieva Lavra 100) is dubious and far from reality. What is more, Istrin claimed closeness of Tr to the archetype of the translation of George Hamartolos’ Chronicon but even copies considered distant from the archetype of the translation have their original textual readings. Istrin’s stemma is to be considered artificial; it does not contribute to the further textological investigations of the early Slavonic translation of George Hamartolos’ Chronicon. As O. V. Tvorogov sayed, the textual variations of the early Slavonic translation of George Hamartolos’ Chronicon could not be considered as detached versions. Nevertheless, the scholar continued the tradition by using the term version (redakcija). In his studies Istrin’s stemma received further development and assumed more complicated form. Even more, Tvorogov even supposed a secondary textual influence upon a group of some Old Russian copies George Hamartolos’ Chronicon (A in his stemma) by the Second version of the Ellinskij Letopisec. Such a thesis is beyond proof. A special attention is paid to manuscript P (Pogodin 1432 from the Russian National Library in Saint Petersburg). It was written by several copyists. One of them in contrast to the others used Old and Middle Bulgarian orthographical features. The fact is significant enough to prove that P goes to the Old Bulgarian tradition of the early translation of George Hamartolos’ Chronicon. But none of the Russian scholars ever said a word about that. In the end of the study some theoretical notes on Mediaeval Slavonic textology were made. The long tradition of the early Slavonic translation of George Hamartolos’ Chronicon reveals a great chaos in textual readings witnessed by its Old Russian copies. In that situation a stemma does not make sense because the stemma is chaotic in itself. This could be seen in T. V. Anisimova’s stemma. It is beyond hope that the chaos in variant readings witnessed in the manuscripts will ever coincide with the chaos of the stemma, so that some kind of a real picture could be received. A better decision could be a critical edition of the early Slavonic translation of George Hamartolos’ Chronicon. Istrin’s and Matveenko–Ščegoleva’s editions of the early Slavonic translation of George Hamartolos’ Chronicon are not satisfactory. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=106762 | |

The first part deals with some general issues of the Greek original and its Slavonic translation. The second part gives brief information about the Old Russian manuscripts which contain the first Slavonic translation of the Chronicle and surveys scholars’ opinions and hypotheses about the origin of the first translation. The third part shows the textual connection between the first Slavonic translation of George Hamartolos’ Chronicon and the Primary Russian Chronicle (known as Povest’ Vremennych Let). The textual comparison between George Hamartolos’ Chronicon (first translation) and Povest’ Vremennych Let is attended with linguistic analysis. The linguistic analysis reveals new data about Old Bulgarian origin of the first translation of George Hamartolos’ Chronicon. The Old Russian manuscripts descend from a late Old Bulgarian protograph that contained some Middle Bulgarian features. The fourth part of the study considers George Hamartolos’ attitude to ancient philosophy. This question is related to another one – to what extend was ancient philosophy known to the orthodox Slavs. It is possible to claim that the first translation of George Hamartolos’ Chronicon provided literate people of Slavia Orthodoxa with some knowledge of ancient philosophy, though transformed (most probably distorted) according to the Christian doctrine. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=125071 | |

Written and re-written in modern Bulgarian language, they represent the development of the traditional medical knowledge and practice in Bulgaria through a long period and provide evidence of the way verbal culture was spread. These compiled manuscripts inherit and enhance the traditional verbal exchange of therapeutic skills and reveal the influence of different cultural traditions. The earliest Slavic example is in a Glagolitic codex from the twelfth century from Monastery “St. Catherine” on Sinai. Books containing only medical prescriptions date from the seventeenth century onwards and were widespread through the nineteenth and twentieth centuries; nevertheless, we can associate their content and function with the culture of the Middle Ages. The cultural framework of this written tradition that encompasses its terminology, as well as its phrasal and narrative expression is of particular interest for the investigation of traditional culture. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=81394 |

Кн. 59-60 (2019), стр. 122–152. | THE NOTATED REPERTORY IN THE EARLY GREEK OKTOECHOI: UNSOLVED PROBLEMS Svetlana Kujumdzieva (Abstract) This study is based on the notated repertory in the Greek Oktoechos prior to the 13th century. The notated Ocktoechos was included as the last section of one of the principle notated books – the Sticherarion. Four cycles were systematically notated in the early (pre-thirteenth-century) Greek Sticheraria– the anatolika and alphabetika stichera with theotokia, usually attributed to John of Damascus, the anabathmoi attributed to Theodore the Studite, and eothina stichera attributed to Emperor Leo VI the Wise. Some sources featured also the exaposteilaria attributed to Emperor Constantine VII Porphyrogennetos. These notated cycles are explored here in the context of the Typika used at the time – the Hypotyposis of Theodore the Studite, the Typikon of Alexios the Studite, and the Typikon of Evergetis. The early copies of the Hypotyposis do not mention the anatolika and alphabetika stichera. The Typikon of Alexios the Studite, which is based on the earliest copies of the Hypotyposis from the second half of the 10th century, prescribes only resurrectional stichera after both Psalm 140 at Vespers and Psalms 148-150 at Orthros. The Typikon of Evergetis, which reveals a very strong neo-Sabaite influence, already prescribes the anatolika and the alphabetika stichera. Hence, we consider the 11th century a watershed in the formation of the notated repertory of the Oktoechos. We propose that the four cycles included in the earliest notated Oktoechoi were probably notated because they were new for the liturgical practice in the region of Constantinople from the 9th through the 11th centuries (as either newly compiled or newly composed works). | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=809468 | |
| Светлана Куюмджиева | (София) – Имало ли е старобългарски Трополог?. Кн. 51 (2015), стр. 11–38. | WAS THERE AN OLD BULGARIAN TROPOLOGION? SVETLANA KUJUMDZIEVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) The liturgical hymnographic book Tropologion was in use until about the end of the 12th century: in the 13th century, sources with such a designation are rare. In its classical complete form, this book contains hymnographic repertory for immovable and moveable feasts that are arranged sequentially according to the church calendar, for the common services and for the eight mode consequences. The movable feasts are included between the immovable ones after the Hypapante on February 2. While there is no book designated as Tropologion among extant Old Slavic books, and among Old Bulgarian books in particular, it does not mean that such a book was not known during the early Old Bulgarian era. We can assume that the earliest extant Old Slavic (Old Bulgarian) books reflect a later stage of development of liturgical books, so that the Tropologion precedes the formation of the Menaia, Triodia and Oktoechoi, in which significant portions of it were preserved at a time when the book itself was already out of use. One of the basic criteria for identifying a book as a Tropologion is its structure. The availability of a continuous sequantial arrangement according to the liturgical calendar, where the moveable are included after the Hypapante and in between immovable feasts, is typical of the earliest hymnographic books at least until about the mid-10th century. The earliest Slavic manuscript that meets this criterion is the famous Iliya’s book, the oldest Russian hymnographic codex. Scholars agree that its protograph is of Bulgarian origin. This study shows that the nucleus of Iliya’s book was formed at the time of Ss. Cyril and Methodius. Hence, the protograph of the book goes back to the 9th-10th centuries. The earliest extant copy is from the 11th-12th centuries. After the Hypapante in Iliya’s book, there is an indication for the beginning of Lent. This peculiarity clearly shows the copyist’s intention to arrange services in an uninterrupted order, as in the book of the Tropologion. The indication for Lent in Iliya’s book remains unique – it is the only such indication known in the Slavic manuscript tradition and one of the most convincing arguments that the Old Bulgarian protograph of Iliya’s book might have been a Tropologion: the hymnographic book of the Tropologion was most widely spread throughout the Eastern world, including Southern Italy, between the 7th and the 12th centuries. One more early Slavic manuscript is defined as a Topologion – the Glagolitic fragment Sinai 4/N dated from the 11th-12th centuries and also linked to the Cyrilo-Methodian era. Based on the manuscripts discussed, the author concludes that the hymnographic book used by Cyril and Methodius in their worship was most probably the Tropologion and that this book was known in Bulgaria during the early Old Bulgarian period. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=341238 | |

Кн. 43–44 (2010), стр. 194–208. | RELICTS OF AN OLD PRACTICE: SOME OBSERVATIONS ON THE ARRANGEMENT OF THE REPERTORY OF EARLY KONTAKIA SVETLANA KUJUMDZIEVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) On the focus of the article is the repertory of kontakia that are arranged for the whole ecclesiastical year and are included in the book of the Psaltikon. The latter was in use between 11th and 14th century and was designated for the performance of soloists for the cathedral rite of the secular churches, known as “sung Office”. The study of the kontakia in the Greek Psaltikons shows that in terms of the arrangement they resemble the repertory of one of the earliest hymnographic books preserved in Georgian copies, the so-called Iadgari, the book that goes back as early as the 6th/7th century and presents the cathedral rite of Jerusalem. Like the repertory of the Iadgari, the kontakia in almost all of the Greek Psaltikons are arranged in an uninterrupted order: the yearly cycle of both the fixed feasts for the twelve months throughout the liturgical year and the movable feasts for the periods of Lent, Easter, and Pentecost are interspersed in a single calendar sequence. The movable feasts are placed between February 2, the Hypapante, and June 24, the feast of St. John Prodromos. The first two weeks of the preparatory period of Great Lent – of the Publican and Pharisee and of the Prodigal Son – are missing. The movable cycle starts with the Meatfare Sunday – a fact that is established for all of the older hymnographic books containing the repertory of Great Lent. The arrangement of the kontakia in the Psaltikons reveals that they have preserved an archaic tradition that goes back before the 9th century. The study of the Slavic kontakia preserved in five Old-Slavic Kontakaria from the 11th to the 14th century, shows that they are arranged according to the “newly” “interrupted” order: the yearly cycle is divided into two separate cycles containing, respectively, fixed and movable feasts. The movable cycle starts like the Greek Psaltikons with the Meatfare Sunday. The existence of two different practices of the arrangement of the repertory of the kontakia between 11th and 14th century – an older one and a new one – speaks about the use of different Typika. It is very possible that the newer arrangement of the kontakia in the Old-Slavic Kontakaria appeared as a result of the activity of the Studite shool of poet-composers from the 9th century onwards: it is almost sure that the Studite monks rearranged the repertory of the kontakia dividing it into separate cycles of fixed and movable feasts. Hence the Old-Slavic Kontakaria in terms of the arrangement of the kontakia for the whole ecclesiastical year represent a later stage in the development of the repertory of kontakia. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=106768 | |

Кн. 41–42 (2009), стр. 441–453. | THE CHANTS DESIGNATED AS “BULGARIAN” IN MUSICAL MANUSCRIPTS ONCE AGAIN SVETLANA KUJUMDZIEVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) M. Velimirović was the first to announce about some chants designated as “Bulgarian” in medieval musical manuscripts. His work was continued by Kr. Stanchev and E. Toncheva. “Bulgarian” chants are of various genres, all of which are for festal occasions: polyeleoi, kratemata, and communion. In the present contribution one more genre (cheroubikon or offertory) and two more copies of the most popular polyelos are added to the known until now “Bulgarian” chants. The latter constitute a stable repertory in the book of the Akolouthiai-Anthologies compiled according to the revised liturgical ordo of Jerusalem. Almost all of them are linked with the names of people close to the great medieval musician John Koukouzeles: John Glykys (Koukouzeles’ teacher), John Kladas (Koukouzeles’ school-fellow), Dimitry Dokeianos (Koukouzeles’ pupil), Koukouzeles himself. Two of „Bulgarian” designations deserve special attention. One of them is “ἡ βουλγάρα” which means “Bulgarian woman”. There are different interpretations of this designation. One of them is that such chants were devoted to Koukouzeles’ mother; another is that they are evidence of the increased attention to women in the 14th century. The other designation is unique. Its rubrics read: “…by Dokeianos in the first mode, imitating a Bulgarian lamentation tune”. All the “Bulgarian” chants go beyond a local significance: in all probability they were designed to foster the unity of the Christian Faith. They could be considered as “ambassadors” for the beauty of the Eastern Orthodox culture and also, as proof of an “open” culture between East and West during the Middle Ages about which our knowledge is still rather rudimentary. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=123524 | |

Кн. 37-38 (2007), стр. 26–48. | ONCE AGAIN ABOUT THE EARLY OKTOECHOI: WHAT DO THE SINAI GREEK MANUSCRIPTS 1593 AND 776 TELL US SVETLANA KUJUMDZIEVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) The two Sinai Greek manuscripts 1593 and 776 are identified by K. W. Clark as two parts of one book. It is argued in the article that they were written in the first half of the ninth century and represent the earliest known book of the type of the Oktoechos. Sinai 1593 is preserved from mode second on. It contains katismata and stichera which follow the succession of the modes in one and the same fixed thematic groups: anastasima, kataniktika, stavrosima, apostolika, etc. Sinai 1593 is the only manuscript of the type of the Oktoechos known in which the katismata precede the stichera. It is suggested that this could reflect an earlier liturgical practice. The groups are designated for both the resurrection and the common weekly services. The question of when and where the order of the groups was fixed is raised. The second manuscript, Sinai 776, contains beautitudes for the resurrection service and two cycles of kanons. The first cycle is combined for the Resurrection and for the common weekly services. The memories for the latter are given in a hierarchical order: apostles, prophets, martyrs, etc. The second cycle of kanons is for the weekly days services. The kanons of this cycle do not follow the eight mode system. The days of the week are not given and this is the only manuscript in which the kanons are not prescribed for the concrete day of the week and do not follow the succession of the eight modes. Also, there is no author’s attribution. These facts are considered as an evidence for an early date of the compilation of the manuscript. Yet, the date could not be earlier than the ninth century because there is a memory for St. Nicolas which entered the calendar as early as this century. It is suggested in conclusion that the two manuscripts studied represent a stage of the Oktoechos from the time of the two Slavic apostles SS. Cyril and Methodios. Next stage is this one of their pupil St. Clement of Ohrid and it is documented in manuscripts from the tenth century onwards. The manuscripts of the time of St. Clement show that all the kanons are already linked to every single day of the week, they follow the succession of the eight modes and bare an author’s attribution. In all probability the oldest Bulgarian Oktoechos was compiled during this stage, i.e. the stage of the time of St. Clement, after the arrival of the pupils of SS. Cyril and Methodios to Bulgaria. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=81382 |

Кн. 51 (2015), стр. 39–53. | THE RUSSIAN TRIODION: AT THE CROSSROADS OF TRADITIONS SVETLANA POLJAKOVA (LISBON) (Abstract) This article analyses two particular Russian znamenny manuscripts from the Moscow Historical Museum—the Synodal Triodion 319 and the Voskresensky Pentecostarion 27, both written in the last third of the 12th century in Novgorod—as integral parts in the formation of a unified tradition. The analysis of the codices’ content and notational peculiarities reveals traces of five sources: three major ones directly used by the scribes, and two supplementary ones. The oldest prototype (probably from the 10th century) appears to be the same Greek Triodion that was used as the main source for the first Triodion translated into Russian. This source did not contain the prosomoia by St. Joseph in its Lenten part. The second source was most likely a notated Russian Sticherarion, and the third a znamenny Heirmologion. The fourth source must have been a Slavonic Triodion, since the GIM-set contains hymnography by Konstantine Preslavsky. Finally, the fifth source must have been the Greek Studite codex, from which the Lenten prosomoia by St. Joseph and some anonymous hymns were introduced into the GIM-set. The author argues that this Greek source could be indirectly connected with some Greek Triodia from the Grottaferrata collection. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=341240 |

Using the same method in this publication, he reconstructs another fragment of the Greek acrostic, which, in the last two odes of the Canon, features the Greek name IΩΑΝΝΗΣ—apparently, the author’s name.

Кн. 65-66 (2022), стр. 317–345. | THE BAPTISM OF THE BULGARIANS IN A BAROQUE MUSICAL DRAMA FROM VIENNA Slavia Barlieva (Sofia) Abstract From the Middle Ages to the Modern Age and its Age of Enlightenment, the conversion to Christianity is the most common motif in Western historical sources about Bulgarian history. Baroque literature does not deviate from this tradition and frequently uses this motif – in hagiographic, homiletic, and very often in dramatic works performed in educational institutions of the Jesuit Order. This article presents a musical drama titled The Fruitful, Free and Wonderful Baptism by God’s Providence of Bogor, King of the Moesians that was performed on an uncertain date in 1716 at the Royal Academic Jesuit College in Vienna. Twenty-three dramatic works of the eighteenth century, dedicated to the Bulgarian Christianization, were known until now. They have been investigated and published by Nadezhda. Andreeva in 2004. The play introduced here is another one, the earliest drama on the subject. It is a musical work composed by Johann Georg Reinhart, a well-known court musician in Vienna. The author of the text is unknown. The play has come down to us in the form of a booklet, called in the Baroque theatrical tradition periocha, containing a bilingual Latin-German summary of the drama. The booklet contains nineteen pages: an Argumentum in Latin with parallel content (Geschichts-Inhalt) in German, as well as a bilingual prologue, three acts, and an epilogue. Between the acts are two chorus parts, also bilingual. The narrative is indicated as being based on the Chronicles of Sigebert of Gembloux and Skylitzes–Kedrenos. The periocha presented here does not list all dramatis personae, noting only some of them. Still, the number of participants in the performance speaks of a monumental spectacle: 187 participants are listed by name in the cast list, along with their nationality, status, and profession or faculty. Through participation in the musical drama about the Bulgarian conversion to Christianity, the educated Baroque public acquired knowledge, albeit with quite a few historical errors, that represented the Bulgarians as bearers of the values of Christian Europe. The article concludes with an Appendix containing a Bulgarian translation of the Latin text of the periocha.

AMPHILOCIUS OF ICONIUM IN THE LIGHT OF GRECO-LATIN AND SLAVIC HAGIOGRAPHY SLAVIA BARLIEVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) The article presents two medieval translations – Latin and Slavic – of the pre-Metaphrastian Life of St. Amphilocius (c. 340–395), one of the honored Fathers of the Eastern Orthodox Church, Bishop of Iconium and a staunch opponent of the Arians. Basing her argument on Paolo Chiesa’s conclusion that the Latin translation, extant in MS 354 of The Municipal Library in Mantuva, was made by Anasthasius the Librarian, and assuming that the Slavic translation is most likely synchronic to the Latin one, the author compares the Mantuva text with a Slavic copy from MS 218 of the Museum of the Serbian Orthodox Church. She establishes evident similarities in the two translations, which inlcude also common deviations from the putative Greek original, the closest extant text to it being the copy in Cod. Barberinianus Gr. 318. This comparative analysis is the first stage toward preparing a critical edition of the Greek pre-Metaphrastian Life of Amphilocius and a study of its relation to the Slavic lives of the saint. The Appendix to the article includes a reprint of the Latin translation and an edition of the Slavic copy from the Serbian MS 218. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=340864 | |

Specifically, it compares the kathismata from the first (thirteenth-century) part of the codex, dedicated to the months of September and October, with those for the month of November. For the comparative analysis, the author also considers the corresponding kathismata from the earliest extant East-Slavic general and South-Slavic festal menaions (the Novgorod Menaion from the second half of the thirteenth century, the twelfth-century menaions from the Synod Collection of GIM, Menaion F. n. I.72 of RNB from the end of the thirteenth and the beginning of the fourteenth century, the Skopje Menaion NBKM 522 from the thirteenth century, and others). The analysis reveals that the November part of the Bratkov Menaion has a peculiar composition. It has preserved an older textual layer that testifies to the earlier origin of this part of the manuscript compared to the part for September and October. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=913145 | |

We examine the Slavonic translations of these Greek works made in a Slavic milieu and the transmission of their manuscripts. Special attention is paid to the only two original Slavonic canons that are known to scholars to date: the anonymous Просвѣщьи древле ѹмꙑ and the canon by Constantine of Preslav, Припадаѭща мѧ боже приими щедротами си. The data for each individual work – its manuscript tradition, the extent of preservation and substitution of strophes from other canons work – allow us to draw conclusions about the time when the Greek canons were introduced into the Slavonic context and the way the original works were disseminated immediately after their composition work – a time from which we have no direct manuscript record. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=366165 |

This chapter still remains fairly cryptic and unexplained, having received little reflection from scholars who have been focused primarily on Constantine’s concepts of orthography and grammar. In this treatise, characterized as “theoretical peroration” (Goldblatt), detailed and explanatory descriptions give way to moralistic lectures and criticism, replete with scriptural citations and commonplace remarks. The contents of the 29th chapter can be understood in terms of social life’s conceptual diversity, which includes dietary habits, segmentation of time, veneration of particular customs and individuals, kinship ties, and aspects of church rituals. These concepts could be mapped onto dichotomies of high/low, official/unofficial, central/local, clerical/lay culture (J. Le Goff, J.-C. Schmitt, Peter Burke), but in many cases they do not overlap with the social strata and classes in the feudal society. Constantine criticizes customs and beliefs that are, more or less, shared by many in the parish and the diocese, from priests and lower clerics to laymen. These cultural models replace the official church practice in the social and religious lives of Belgrade clergy and their flocks—a tendency that Constantine ardently opposes. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=718628 |

The writers of Old Rus’ valued this polemical tract highly and borrowed from it liberally, as evidenced by such works as Sermon on Law and Grace (mid eleventh century), Tale of Bygone Years (early twelfth century), and Tikhonravov’s Chronograph (known in a single manuscript of the sixteenth century). Several parts of the Slavonic Book of Jacob display in turn an affinity with the Slavonic translation of George Hamartolos’ Chronicle, which has influenced the entire Old Russian historiographic tradition. Textual relations between the Slavonic Hamartolos and the Book of Jacob could be explained in two ways. According to the first scenario, the Slavonic translator of Doctrina Jacobi used the Chronicle directly; according to the second scenario, the borrowings were interpolated either by a later editor of the Book of Yakov or in only one branch of the manuscript tradition. The first hypothesis suggests that Hamartolos’ Chronicle might have already been known in Kiev prior to the year 1050. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=913127 |

Кн. 57-58 (2018), стр. 96–127. | THE SOUTH SLAVONIC MANUSCRIPT TRADITION OF THE BOOK OF GENESIS: ARCHEOGRAPHY, TEXTUAL STRUCTURE AND SEGMENTATION Tatyana Slavova (Abstract) The article studies the South Slavonic tradition of the biblical Book of Genesis, preserved in eight copies from the 15th–16th century. The orthographic and phonetical features, text structure, and the segmentation of the text by headings in all known South Slavonic copies point to a common Middle Bulgarian hyparchetype (х1) of Turnovo provenance, dating from the fourteenth century. This hyparchetype apparently had mechanical defects – missing or misplaced book chapters from the Оctateuch, and included as interpolations at least two excerpts from Palaea Historica and three unidentified non-Biblical fragments. Significantly, it segmented the text of the Book of Genesis (Оctateuch) by means of interpretative titles that, in addition to their exegetic function, most probably had a liturgical role. These headings were secondary to the translation and could be attributed to scolarly activity in Turnovo. The Middle Bulgarian hyparchetype (х1) generated at least two copies that turned into protographs (P1 and P2). P1 served as the foundation of Wallachian-Moldavian manuscripts (such as GIM–Moscow, Barsov collection, No. 3; Collection of the Romanian Academy of Sciences No. 85; RGB–Moscow, Rumyantsev collection, No. 29), whereas P2 gave rise to the five manuscripts originating from Western Bulgarian lands and Serbia (RGB–Moscow, Grigorovich collection, f. 87, No. 1/М 1684; Library of the Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts in Zagreb, No. ІІІ.с.17; RGB–Moscow, Sevastiyanov collection, f.270, No. 1/M. 1431; Church-Historical and Archival Institute, Sofia, No. 351; Krushedol Monastery, No. 81). While P1 restricts the additional headings only to the main text, P2 expands their use to the manuscript’s margins as well. P2 includes also a short description and interpretation of the first five Old Testament books. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=718610 | |

Also, the author comments on the texts surrounding the Letter as well as the interest in it on behalf of the heretics in Novgorod and Moscow during the 15th century.

Since there is no direct evidence for the existence of such an institutionalized post in Bulgaria, various arguments are listed to support this statement: (1) historical evidence about the role of the wine cup-bearer in service to the Hunnic rulers and the Byzantine Emperor; (2) the use of the lexeme чъваньчии “ruler’s cup-bearer” in early Bulgarian translations of literary works which survived in later Slavonic copies; and (3) the Proto-Bulgarian (Turkic) origin of чъваньчии ‘one who uses a cup, pitcher’, with the following morpheme structure: a motivating lexeme чьванъ ‘vessel, cup, pitcher’ (Turkic čod(g)un with original meaning “vessel, pot”, in written Mongolian čodugar, čožugar “bottle, pitcher, jug”, secondary meaning “cast iron, molten iron”) and the Proto-Bulgarian suffix -чии for Nomina agentis.

Кн. 39–40 (2008), стр. 30–44. | “TARKAN” – AN HONORARY TITLE AND/OR AN ADMINISTRATIVE TITLE TATYANA SLAVOVA (SOFIA) (Abstract) The article comments on the usage of the title “tarkan” and its double function in epigraphic and literary monuments from the ninth–tenth century (i.e. protoBulgarian inscriptions, Greek sources, Slavic originals and translated works). It is argued that when the title was used in post-position after another administrative / status title (e. g. ὁ βουλίας ταρκάνος, ὁ ζουπαν ταρκανος) or after an adjective (e. g. Κουλουτερκάνος, Καλουτερκάνος, Кълоутороканъ) it performed the role of an honorary title – probably accorded as a reward for specific services. However, when the same word was a part of composite titles, in post-position after a word meaning “rank” (ολγου, turk. uluγ, uluq “great, big”; ζερα, turk. yiri, yir “north, northern”; βορι, turk. böri, buri “wolf”) it accrued the function of administrative title, synonymous with a representative of the ruler of an enormous province. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=125084 | |

Although the Old Bulgarian protograph has not reached our times it can be argued that separate texts of Ephraim’s copy provide information on concepts and realia related to everyday life in medieval Bulgaria. The etymological and cultural analysis focuses on several lexemes such as „сига, лек, къщник, лисктвеник, козлогласование” considered relics from ancient pagan rituals concerning playing dice, mime performances, as well as ritual entertainment. A connection has been sought with Bulgarian folklore which has preserved until nowadays some similar rituals, as for example mummery games. | http://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=211023 | |

Bulgarian compilation Golden Chain contains versions of texts from five centuries. This paper identifies the text of units 320–340 in the Golden Chain as a faithful translation from the Syntagma of Matthew Blastares, the Greek text of which is dated to 1335: it is an excerpt from its section 2 (Β), chapter 8 (Η), on the degrees of consanguinity and affinity and forbidden and permitted marriages. The excerpt covers in full roughly the first half of chapter 8, leaving out the second half devoted to marriages among three lineages. The text is presented in a lineated collation of the Greek source text with two copies of the Slavonic translation which are shown to be transcriptions of one antigraph written in Glagolitic. It is the first reliable example of transcription Cyrillic → Glagolitic (the closed tradition of the translation of the Syntagma shows no trace of Glagolitic). Why such intervention was imposed cannot as yet be explained.

THE KNJAŽIJ IZBORNIK AND THE IZBORNIK OF JOHN THE SINNER AND THEIR ILK William Veder (Abstract) Slavonic compilations, recycling extant texts, must be considered texts in their own right even if they fulfil only half of the requirements imposed by text linguistics: their reception and transmission in no way differs from that of other texts. The two compilations named and eight others with similar content raise the question, whether their relationship is filial, i.e. shaped by accidents of transmission, or sibling, i.e. designed by different compilers. A review of the differences in content per chapter, complemented by reviews of five different types of editorial intervention and of the treatment of the more than 30 different source texts shows that nine of the ten compilations are, indeed, independent texts, while one is a version affiliated to an extant compilation. | http://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=809498 | |

Attached to the article is the text of the manuscript’s first page, containing the beginning of the prayer-cycle and an intertwined Graeco-Latino-Glagolitic abecedarium that was added by Demetrius on empty folia after the Psalter’s completion.

Its origins can be found in the works of John the Exarch, a Bulgarian manof- letters from the end of the ninth – beginning of the tenth centry. In the translation of philosophical and theological terminology this author applied two approaches: analytic and synthetic. These two approaches led to the poetisation of dialectic and found expression in the frequent use of the concept „image“. Thus John the Exarch created a stable tradition which survived until the twentieth century and could be traced in the works of the philosophers from the so-called Russian religious Renaissance. | http://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=210999 | |

So far, attention has been given to those readings in it whose author is supposedly St Clement of Ohrid. The rest are undescribed and unknown. This article focuses on two of them, which were read during the Service of the Twelve Gospels at Holy Friday Matins. The first is “Miracle of the Crucifix and the Jew”, whose Greek source is unknown to us. The second, titled “Homily and Sermon on the Passion of Christ”, is most probably not a translation. Its central motif is Christ’s Descent into Hell. The analysis of this Homily has established that it is based mainly on two Byzantine works, translated as early as the ninth–tenth centuries. Its author used the Homily on Holy Saturday attributed to Epiphanius of Cyprus, and Homily XCIX from the Paraenesis associated with Ephrem the Syrian. This article enriches Old Bulgarian literature with new works and draws scholarly attention to synaxarion readings, to their connection with the Byzantine models, the various means of their adaptation, and their place in Triodia and Triodion Panegyrika. Keywords: Triodion; MS Khlud. 138; synaxarion readings; Service of the Twelve Gospels; Epiphanius of Cyprus; Ephrem the Syrian; Miracle of the Crucifix and the Jew; Homily and Sermon on the Passion of Christ | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=1078249 |

Scholars presume definitive answers to most of these questions, but the picture is actually much more complicated. This study offers a critical reassessment of the arguments underpinning shared assumptions in the field and the conventions on which our knowledge relies. It proposes new approaches to exploring manuscript peculiarities which have recived little attention so far, but which could expand and enrich our understanding of the particular monuments and of medieval Slavic written culture more broadly. | http://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=809470 | |

Bulgarian writer Peter the Monk (Peter chernorizets) is poorly attested in the Slavonic manuscript tradition. It is evidenced in only two Russian miscellanies dating from 14th and 16th c., respectively. This paper identifies a witness of a second branch in the tradition of the text, under № 54 in the longer redaction of the Chrysorrhoas (Zlatostrui) collection. Analysis shows that a number of innovations were introduced in this version. It features a new title, an introduction and conclusion, segmentation into three parts, abridgement, and various editorial interventions. Even though this branch is independent from the first one, it could still contribute to the reconstruction of the archetype, especially since the text variant featured in the Slavic Synaxarion (Prolog) clearly derives from it. The study also reveals a Byzantine source for a passage in the Sermon On the Salvation Of the Soul, identifies other passages that might have Greek counterparts, and offers some lexical observations on the Slavonic text. Both versions of the Slavonic text are published side by side in the appendix. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=341271 | |

The former is a collection of more than 120 Chrysostomian homilies that served as a source for miscellanies of stable content (known as “redactions of Zlatostruy”) and strongly influenced the Lenten homiliaries and other early florilegia. The latter is a compilation from compilations, as William Veder defined it, which means a selection from various previously made and subsequently revised Slavonic translations from Greek. Both Zlatostruy and the Knyazhiy Izbornik have much in common: time and place of origin, a connection with the Bulgarian royal court during its early history, similarities in terms of structure and source adaptation. Last, but not least there are direct textual correspondences between them. The article compares the common passages. This analysis leads to the conclusion that the collections under consideration do not depend on one another, but transmit a larger proto-collection containing translations, excerpts and gnomai. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=340854 | |

Кн. 47 (2013), стр. 46–59. | THE SLAVIC MEDIEVAL TRADITION OF CONVERSIO TAISIAE(BHG 1696) YAVOR MILTENOV (SOFIA) (Abstract) The story about the repentant prostitute Thais (Taisia), absolved of her sins and glorified as a saint after years of a voluntary banishment in a monastic cell, has enjoyed noteworthy popularity in West European art and society – since the end of 19th c. it has been remade in novels, films and even in an opera. If we turn farther back to the Middle Ages, we would find out that this story rouse interest too as it has Greek, Latin, Syriac and Slavic versions. In the Byzantine manuscript tradition (from which all the rest derive) it circulates in several variants and genres – oral narrations became apophtegmata, one apophtegma became sermo, then finally sermo became vita. The article examines the Slavic medieval translation of one of these Greek texts, namely Conversio Taisiae. The stress is laid on its dissemination in manuscripts that are successors of the initial Chrysorrhoas (Zlatostruy) corpus. An attempt has been made to reconstruct the stages in the transmission of the Slavic version by joining data of both text critical comparison of the witnesses and the history of the collections that incorporate these witnesses. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=103933 | |

The present article is dedicated to the textological research and editing of the Slavic translation of a rare homily of this early Christian author De Neomeniis et de Sabbatis et de non observandis avium vocibus, BHG 635kb, CPG 5516. The text is directed against magical practices, especially against the evil eye (βασκανία), and it contains a rare description of this popular belief. The homily was found in the sixteenth-century miscellany No 1170 from the collection of I. Svencickij in the National Museum in L’viv, Ukraine. The codex with Serbian linguistic features has preserved archaic specifics of a much older archetype. In its composition the L’viv MS is close to other miscellanies studied by K. Stanchev and other medievalists. Presenting it to scholarship provides new opportunities for the study of this interesting tradition. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=123514 |

The new geo-political situation in the Polish state and society after 1945 left an imprint on medievalist scholarship, even though most of the authors managed to avoid excessive ideologization. Certain changes in the ways the work of SS. Cyril and Methodius is described and evaluated became visible after the fall of communism in Poland as well. In the course of almost eight decades, Polish scholars have produced a considerable number of books, papers and anthologies related to Cyril and Methodius, which constitute an important contribution to international Slavic Medieval studies. This article attempts to review in a synthetic form the Cyrillo-Methodian publications that appeared in Poland after 1945 as well as those produced by leading Polish researchers for foreign publications. | http://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=809465 | |

Кн. 53-54 (2016), стр. 82–100. | WORKS BY CLEMENT OF OHRID FROM SLAVIC MANUSCRIPTS IN POLAND JAN STRADOMSKI (KRAKÓW) (Abstract) Church Slavonic manuscript collections in Poland hold over forty copies of homilies and encomia traditionally attributed to Clement of Ohrid. Although scholars have known about these copies for years, they have not been subjected yet to detailed linguistic and textual studies. The analysis of the works from the Lenten and Paschal cycles reveals that part of the copies retain old linguistic features – spelling and lexical units – from South Slavonic manuscripts which, no doubt, were still in use in areas of Western Russia during the 14th–16th centuries. As a rule, Clement’s works were faithfully copied, but there are occasionally examples of textual interventions that evince editorial activity by local scribes and compilers. The source material confirms the opinion that, within the Polish-Lithuanian state, Russian Orthodoxy was actively drawing from the South Slavonic literary tradition. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=476759 | |

It has lasted for over two centuries, and aimed at the transfer of the Russian Orthodox Church under the Papal power. The literary aspect of the dispute intended to show which of the two Churches maintained the purity of ancient faith and the true sacraments, which one of the Christian communities preserved the original God’s orders, and – most importantly –through which Church (Eastern or Western) the believer would be granted salvation. The hagiographic examples are frequently quoted among the countless arguments preserved in old manuscripts. References to the Balkan ritual and the cults of saints cited in these religious polemics aimed at presenting religious, moral and social models for the followers of the Orthodox Church, interpreted, each time, as examples of the true orthodoxy and as an adherence to the ancient patristic tradition. In this respect, the writings of the Ukrainian monk from Mount Athos, Ivan of Vishnya (Iwan Wiszeński) offer one of the most interesting and telling examples. They preserve an account of the martyrdom of Barlaam, Archbishop of Ohrid, unattested in any other written source. This valuable monument from the seventeenth-century hagiographic literature of the Balkans adds new data to the rather modestly presented Bulgarian literary culture under the Ottoman rule. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=6934 | |

The National Library in Warsaw posseses one of the older copies of the itinerary of Hegoumenos Daniel Palomnik (BOZ 124, 15th century) and a copy of its sixteenth-century reworking by Archimandrite Daniel Korsuński (BN I 12437, beginning of the 18th century). The Princes Czartoryski Library in Cracow stores a description of Daniel Korsuński’s peregrinations (Czart. 2401, 18th century), which has been so far omitted in scholarly literature. The comparison of the manuscripts has displayed a greater presence of Western Ruthenian and Polish language features in manuscript BN I 12437, as well as a tendency for shortening fragments of the text. On the other hand, the copy from the Czartoryski Library is closer to the main edition of the text and presents a language similar to the majority of the copies of the text that have been preserved. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=123531 |

This study deals with the sixteenth-century manuscript No. 88 from the collection of Obolensky, the Russian State Archive of Ancient Acts (RGADA), Moscow, which contains a series of unique texts preserving the repertoire of Bulgarian and Serbian literatures of that time. The manuscript contains both original works by Konstantin Kostenetski and Dimiter Kantakuzin and extracts and compilations translated from Byzantine Greek. The manuscript abounds invaluable examples of the writers’ efforts to develop the hesychastic literature, showing continued interest in it as spiritual reading exercises. The content shows the connection between the literary centres on the Balkans and, above all, with the monasteries on Mt Athos. The work of Palaeoslavists on the texts will be published shortly.

Кн. 63-64 (2021), стр. 323–335. | THE EUCHARISTIC DOVE: CONSIDERATIONS ON THE MEANING OF TWO BALKAN EXAMPLES Anita Paolicchi (Abstract) This essay presents two bird-shaped Eucharistic containers (“doves”), originally belonging to Orthodox foundations in South-Eastern Europe. In Western Europe, the use of eucharistic doves is confirmed by the conspicuous number of examples, survived to the passing of time and preserved in various medieval art collections, both in Europe and in the United States. On the other hand, the scarcity of attestations of objects with this form in use in Eastern-rite churches has not so far allowed to verify their diffusion, nor to define a possible evolution in comparison to the Western examples: despite the ancient sources offering interesting starting points for the research, their use in the Eastern Orthodoxy has not been the subject of intense investigation until now. These two examples possibly mark the two ends of a presumably long tradition of bird-shaped Eucharistic containers in the Orthodox world, and their introduction in the art historical literature represents a starting point for future investigations.

Повечето от българските календари до края на XIVв. отразяват до известна степен съдържанието на синаксара към типика на Великата църква (IX–X в., тук ВК) и на неговия разширен и редактиран наследник, Менология на император Василий ІІ (тук Всл). Не съществуват славянски календари, преводи на пълния ВК или Всл, обаче някои архаични памети на светци от ВК, по-късно изпуснати от Всл, се срещат в български календари на различни по тип книги от XIII–XIVв. Статията очертава в най-общи линии взаимоотношенията между преписите, принадлежащи към семейството гама, т.е. три двойки български календари от този период, които съдържат архаични памети от ВК и Всл. Това семейство се съпоставя с месецословите на Остромировото евангелие, Охридския апостол, Карпинското евангелие и най-древния запазен пълен месецослов, староцърковнославянското евангелие Codex Assemanianus. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=196293 |

Това са: 1. Мъчение на св. Никита, син на Максимиан, BHG 1346d (начало BHG 1342z); 2. Мъчение на св. Варвара, BHG 213-214; 3. Мъчение на св. Юлиания от Никомидия, BHG 962z; 4. Мъчение на св. Марина, BHG 1165; 5. Мъчение на св. Параскева Римлянка, BHG 1420d. Основната ми хипотеза е, че има структурно-семантична обвързаност между 1) типа светец (а именно мъченик), 2) един определен сюжетен момент (разпита и победата над дявола в тъмницата, където е затворен героят), и 3) евхемния финал. На особената взаимосвързаност между трите елемента и на смислопораждащите механизми в резултат на това се дължи специфичния перформативен характер на анализираните текстове. Те не просто разказват за мъченическите подвизи на своите герои, те пресъздават, така да се каже, нещата разказани в тях. Как става това? Най-вече чрез своеобразните перформативни функции на текста, породени от сдвояването на един (централен) епизод, който е същностен за смисъла и посланията на мъченията (победата над дявола и неговата изповед) и финалните молитви – заклинания. Онова, което свързва петимата светци – мъченици и посветените на тях текстове в настоящото изложение, е фактът, че става дума за светци със спорна историчност (1), на което се дължат по-фриволните, макар и изградени основно върху клишета разкази за живота на тези персонажи (2), от една страна, и финалните, предсмъртни молитви на светците (3), от друга. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=103948 |

Evelina Mineva Keywords: St Parasceve of Epibatae; translation of relics; Belgrade; Istanbul Abstract: This paper presents some new facts about the translation of the relics of St Parasceve of Epibatae from Belgrade to Istanbul and their stay in the city until the fourth decade of the 17th century: 1. After converting the Metropolitan Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary in Belgrade into a mosque, Sülejman I (1494/1495‒1566) allowed its clergy to take the relics to Istanbul. 2. Perhaps for some time the saint’s relics were located in the Serbian church of Istanbul, and therefore it was originally called St. Petka. 3. After the obtaining of the relics by the Greek patriarchate, they were kept in a separate chapel of the Pammakarystos monastery. 4. The story about the Patriarch Parthenius being drowned by the Ottomans, because he donated the relics secretly to Voivode of Moldavia is a legend.These new facts testify that the popularity of the saint’s cult did not die out with the conquest of Belgrade by the Turks and was one of the main reasons for the last journey of St Parasceve of Epibatae’s relics to the place of their present residence in the city of Iași, Moldavia. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=1198323 |

Произведението е част от един значително по-широк корпус от старозаветни апокрифни съчинения, свързани с името на родения седем поколения след Адам пророк Енох, когото Бог вдига жив на небесата, за да му разкрие съкровените тайни на отвъдните селения. Една от най-съществените особености на самия наратив на апокрифната Книга на светите тайни Енохови е описанието на отвъдните селения, разположени на седемте (а в някои от версиите – на десетте) небеса, които пророкът посещава едно след друго, преди да се срещне „лице в лице“ с Бога, който му разкрива тайните на миротворението; това описание на Еноховото пътешествие-“пренасяне“ разкрива една вътрешна логика и неочевидна, но строга архитектоника. Отделните небесни нива са подредени в симетрична хармония, а вселената е уподобена на храм, разположен в подножието на Божия престол. Всичко това Енох описва в съкровените си книги, превръщайки се по този начин в архетип на „твореца/писателя“, докоснал се до небесното знание на ангелите и до самата Божествена мъдрост. Когато му разкрива тайните на творението на видимото и невидимото, на материята и законите, които я управляват, Бог го посвещава и в крипто-знанието на астрономията, като го информира за подредбата на звездите. Тази подредба не следва нито един от познатите планетарни модели, регистрирани в съчиненията от същата епоха (Симеоновия сборник, творбите на Йоан Екзарх и др.). Тези, а и други особености на 2 Енох насочват към една ранна композиция на текста; протографът му вероятно възхожда към епоха, предшестваща периода на установяването на Птолемеевата стандартната подредба на небесните тела (наложена през II в. сл.Хр.); от друга страна, писменото описание на мъдростта, придобита от Енох, наподобява предания за вавилонски предисторически мъдреци. Това на свой ред ни дава основание да интерпретираме апокрифната Книга на светите тайни Енохови като специфичен посредник между културното наследство на Вавилон и Византия. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=196287 |

То се е радвало на голям успех не само в Украйна, но и в Русия. След кратък анализ на изданията следват разсъждения върху някои особени лингвистични форми; върху средновековните църковнославянски извори; върху западните средновековни извори и тези от епохата на барока; върху литературната струкура и върху логическите и философските основи на този труд. Анализът на някои особености на литературния похват изтъква на преден план повествователната дарба на писателя: разработвайки по-стари материали с техники от XVII в., той успява да предизвика у читателя чувство за напрегнато очакване и да предложи живи реалистични описания или символични интерпретации. В същото време Димитрий Туптало третира теми от универсално екзистенциално значение и се стреми да даде решения, едновременно религиозни и дълбоко човечни. Той би могъл да бъде наречен не само последния повествовател в църковнославянската литература, но и първия в новата украинска и руска литература. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/journal-detail?id=281 |

Petrov Keywords: Isaac of Nineveh; medieval Slavonic translations; Old Slavonic translations from Greek; Middle Bulgarian Abstract: This article introduces into scientific circulation the Homily on Silence, Stillness, and the Quiet Life, an anonymous text that appeared around the mid-fourteenth century in part of the codices containing the Greek translation of the ascetical homilies (Sermones ascetici) of Isaac the Syrian, Bishop of Nineveh. In a Slavonic environment, this homily began to be used as an introduction in all the lists of the so-called Second Translation of the works of Isaac the Syrian. The Slavonic translation itself, Middle Bulgarian, demonstrates the literal adherence to the Greek original that is typical of the period. Its text is published as a diplomatic edition based on the copy dated 1381 and kept at the Holy Trinity-St Sergius Lavra, collated with another nine of the twelve known copies of the homily. The cases in which the Slavonic text differs from the Greek are presented and commented upon, assuming that the translation was made from a Greek Vorlage differing from the Greek text we know today (which has no critical edition, since the Greek tradition of this homily has not been studied). On the basis of the lexical variants between the Slavonic copies, some preliminary relationships within the Slavonic tradition are formulated that can be used in further work with the witnesses of the Second Slavonic Translation of Isaac the Syrian. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=1198315 |

The cult has ceased to exist after the Avar invasions in the region. However, the appearance of the Martyrdom of Irenaeus of Sirmium in the Codex Suprasliensis from the late 10th century, copied in the Preslav literary school, enlivened the conviction of some scholars that the narrative earned its place in the collection due to the agency of Irenaeus’ local cult. Needless to say, the First Bulgarian Empire wielded their territorial pretensions over Sirmium during the 10th century. This article discusses the links between the potential Irenaeus’ cult in Sirmium and the appearance of the narrative about his martyrdom in the Codex Suprasliensis. The juxtaposition of all the available sources demonstrated significant discrepancy and temporal chasm among them. I argue in this article that it was not the local cult that installed Irenaeus in this collection, but his presence in the earlier type of the calendar for March, on the basis of which the Codex Suprasliensis has been aligned. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=103926 |

Therefore, such texts are good indicators of their knowledge of Latin, from which they translated, as well as of Church Slavonic. In the paper, the author comparatively analyzes the text of The Office for St. Dominic in seventeen Croatian-Glagolitic breviaries, describes in detail its language and compares it with the language of texts copied from older protographs, in order to identify the differences between them and to determine to what degree the text of the office was influenced by the Croatian (Čakavian) vernacular, as well as to determine the time of it's translation. He concludes that differences among the codices are not numerous, and that in all codices we have the same translation. Proceeding from some errors in the oldest copies, which can only be explained if we assume that they were copied from still older Glagolitic protographs, he also concludes that the office was translated not later than the beginning of the 14th century, if not even in the second half of the 13th century. The translator had a very good knowledge of Croatian Church Slavonic, but was not an expert in Latin. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=103934 |

Futher, in the West he esta¬blished his reputation as one of the great Popes, a reformer of the liturgical chant (Gregorian chant) and an author of the written Rule of St Benedict. All these facts guarantee him popularity and frequent use of his works in the Western and Eastern liturgy. Several biographies were written after his death, some parts of which were copied in the liturgical books in order to be read on the 12th of March, the day of St Gregory´s feast. Sporadically, one could find the texts of Pope Gregory´s Life in medieval Orthodox Slavonic written tradition. In fact, two such texts are attested: first, the so-called Metphrastian legend of the sailor who came to Gregory to ask for money, and, second, the Synaxarion (Prolog) reading (a short text discending from the Greek Menology of Basil II). In the Christian West, as a rule, there is a much higher number of narrative texts dedicated to St Gregory the Great. Out of the three texts dedicated to him in the Latin liturgical books, only one occurs in Latin breviraies from the late 14th and 15th centuries. It also exists in a Church Slavonic translation attested in the Croatian Glagolitic breviaries. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=103945 |

ПОЛИКАРП КИЦУЛЕСКУ (БУКУРЕЩ) (Резюме) Библиотеката на Светия синод е основана едновременно със създаването на Светия синод през 1872 г. През 1959 г. библиотеката е преобразувана според научни критерии и е поместена в Двореца на Светия синод при манастира „Св. Антим“ в Букурещ. Основната колекция е съставена от книги от старата библиотека на Унгаро-Влахийската митрополия, книги от духовните семинарии, разпуснати от комунистите през 1948 г., както и закупени книги. Сбирките на Библиотеката на Светия синод са съставени от документални фондове, които включват почти сто хиляди печатни книги, сред които има няколко хиляди старопечатни и редки книги, както и периодични издания. Пазят се и над 500 ръкописа от ХV до ХХ в., от които 150 славянски. Най-старият от тях има датиращ надпис от 1433 г., но има и ръкописи, които може да са от ХІV в. Сбирката от славянски ръкописи е проучвана спорадично от изследователи от Русия и България, но повечето от тях досега не са изследвани. Най-голямата част от тези ръкописи са агиографски. В тях има жития на светци, които са много слабо известни в Румъния: Йоан Переяславски, Йосиф Волоколамски, Зосима Соловецки и Саватий Соловецки (в ръкописи от началото на ХVІ в.), Никита Стълпник Переяславски, Василий Блажени (московски юродив), Макарий Желтоводски и Уженски, княз Андрей Смоленски (Переяславски) и др. Повечето ръкописи са получени от старообрядческия манастир „Успение Богородично“, окръг Тулча. Част от останалите са купени през ХІХ в. от старообрядци от манастира в Нямц, друга част са преписани от монаси от Успенския манастир, редица томове са донесени от далечния Архангелск. Статията е и един вид покана към специалистите, които проявяват интерес да си сътрудничат с Румънската патриаршия (с Библиотеката на Светия синод), с цел научното използване на нейната сбирка. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=103940 |

ROLAND MARTI (SAARBRÜCKEN) (Zusammenfassung) „В началото бе книгата“: dies gilt zweifellos für die Kulturgeschichte der Slaven. Das Buch als wichtigste materielle Grundlage für die Verbreitung des Christentums war denn auch eine Vorbedingung für die kyrillo-methodianische Mission. Und von zentraler Bedeutung war das Buch des Christentums schlechthin: das Evangelium. Das läßt sich an den Viten von Konstantin-Kyrill und Method deutlich ablesen… Diese Textstelle liefert gleichzeitig ein Argument in der Diskussion darüber, welcher Typus des Evangeliums zuerst übersetzt wurde: das Tetra-Evangelium oder das Aprakos-Evangelium. Sie spricht zugunsten des Aprakos-Evangeliums , was auch heute noch die weithin akzeptierte Ansicht ist. Diese Diskussion, die (abgesehen von der oben zitierten Textstelle) nur textologisch geführt werden könnte, interessiert hier aber nicht; vielmehr geht es im folgenden um Terminologisches im Zusammenhang mit dem Evangelium. | http://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=211017 |

The folia were written on Sinai in the 9th century in “mixed hagiopolite uncial,” a script characteristic for this area. They can be dated by internal evidence to after 835-843. The leaves are the remains of a calendar of liturgical commemorations for April and May. Some of the calendar entries consist only of names, while others contain a short hagiographical note and represent a precursor to the later Byzantine synaxarion. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=123547 |

| Vesna Badurina - Stipčević | (Zagreb) – Kult svetoga Nikole u hrvatskoj srednjovjekovnoj književnosti. Кн. 47 (2013), стр. 148–161. | THE CULT OF ST NICOLAS IN CROATIAN MEDIEVAL LITERATURE VESNA BADURINA-STIPČEVIĆ (ZAGREB) (Abstract) Broadly recognised as one of the most important saints in Christian world, St Nicolas was a bishop of Myra in Asia Minor. Despite his great popularity during his lifetime, his biography remains largely unknown to us due to the uncertainties of the historical facts that surround his life, and to the legendary character of the extant literary works dedicated to him. This rich legendary tradition is attested in many different versions of Greek and Latin hagiographic texts. The cult of St Nicolas was well known among the Croats, too. The dissemi¬nation of his cult is reflected in many accounts in both oral tradition and written Croatian medieval literature. Further, many Croatian Glagolitic sources contain various episodes from life of St Nicolas. The most extensive texts are kept in the Oxford Zbornik (the 15th century) and in the Petrisov Zbornik from 1468. The text in the Oxford Zbornik is a copy of the Church Slavonic translation of the Greek narrative (BHG 1347), and contains many details about the life of St Nicolas Sionites. The text in the Petrisov Zbornik follows the Western tradition of St Nico¬las’s hagiography: it is very similar to St Nicolas’s vita included in the Legenda aurea by Jacobus de Voragine. In comparison to other Croatian Glagolitic texts, the version in the Petrisov Zbornik is far more complete. At the end of this study the Latin-script transliteration of so far unpublished Croatian Glagolitic text from the Oxford Zbornik is given. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=103931 |

Кн. 61-62 (2020), стр. 38-58. | TRANSLATION ERRORS IN THE SLAVONIC VERSION OF ATHANASIUS’ ORATIONS AGAINST THE ARIANS* Viacheslav V. Lytvynenko (Abstract) This study seeks to shed light on errors made when translating into Slavonic from oral recitations of Greek texts and, more broadly, to contribute to a discussion about the typology of errors in Slavonic translations. It offers a catalogue of 99 translation errors in the Slavonic version of the Orations against the Arians. More often than not these errors appear to be the result of mishearing, creating the impression that the translator was working from recitations rather than from a written source. Establishing the real nature of these errors requires a closer study of each individual case as well as an analysis of their pattern of recurrence in all four Orations. | https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=913115 |
