They prove to be an essential source for analysing the networks of Slavists and academic and state institutions, which already had an international character at the time of Brückner and Miklosich. Placing the letters in their wider context also reveals the role of Slavic studies in the pragmatically designed project of the Short Dictionary of Six Slavic Languages.

Samuil’s inscription shows the earliest evidence of familiarity with these formulae among the Slavs. It also presents a unique example of the use of official formulae in a memorial document, although documentary inscriptions in stone are well attested in various Slavic, Romance and Germanic written cultures. The article offers a new interpretation, reconstruction and translation of the inscription.

The oldest Church Slavic Menaia of the Jerusalem type appeared on Mount Athos in the second or third decade of the 14th century. They are all of Serbian origin. In the 1330?s and 1340?s, the Menaion reached Macedonian lands, which were part of the Kingdom of Serbia. It spread further across Bulgarian lands by the mid-14th c., and was to become the only type of hymnographic book in South Slavic lands by the end of the same century.

The first part of these research notes shows that a Greek source of one of the liturgical chants dedicated to SS. Constantine and Helene has been erroneously identified in the Index of the Incipita of Old East Slavonic liturgical chants; this made it possible to assume textual corruption in the Slavonic translation and prevented scholars from establishing a correct understanding of the hapax legomenon tresadovnyj, which actually means ‘made of three species of wood’ (about the Holy Cross made of the fir tree, the pine tree, and the box, according to Christian exegesis of Is 60:13).

Numerous linguistic features of the manuscript testify to Old West Bulgarian (Old Macedonian) literary usage of the end of the 9th — beginning of the 10th c., on the basis of which the earliest Slavonic hymnographical translations were performed. Despite of such an archaic linguistic and textual layers observed in the manuscript, its calendar, structure and content were influenced by the monastic rite based on the Typicon of Patriarch Alexius the Studite which had been translated and introduced in Kievan Rus' at the second half of the 11th c. The linguistic features of the text version as attested by F. p. I 37 have been compared to the manuscripts testifying to the Alexius the Studite text version.

Темничская надпись-древнейший памятник славянской письменности, найденный на территории Сербии (регион Темнич). Первоначальное происхождение надписи, однако, остается неясным. Плита с надписью небольшого размера (ок. 20 × 20 см) сделана из известняка, порода которого отсутствует в месте находки, кроме того, надпись найдена существенно севернее того региона, из которого происходят древнейшие сохранившиеся памятники письменности сербско-боснийско-хорватского ареала. Языковые особенности надписи отражают раннее состояние фонетики, не свойственное архаическим глаголическим рукописям, которые с разной степенью достоверности связываются с сербскохорватским ареалом (Мариинское евангелие, Кло цов сборник): в надписи этимологически правильно употребляются бук вы ъі-и, ъ-ь, что свидетельствует о различении согласных по твер достимягкости перед гласными переднего ряда. Надпись сделана в книжной графике каллиграфического качества. Эти и другие графико-орфографические и фонетические особенности надписи - употребление йотированных, букв, орфограмм ъи и ъі, букв палатальных согласных — находят параллели в древневосточноболгарской письменности и древнерусско-церковнославянских рукописях, восходящих к древнеболгарским оригиналам. Особое внимание в статье уделено случаям регрессивной палатальной аккомода- ции l предшествующему заднеязычному k. Наконец, в статье предлагается новое прочтение трех фрагментов надписи и публикуется ее исправленный, по сравнению с предшествующими изданиями, наборный текст.
The Temnić inscription is the oldest surviving written record of Slavic discovered in Serbia (the region of Temnić), however, the original provenance of the inscription is unknown. The tablet with the inscription (approx. 20×20 cm) was made of the limestone absent from the area where it was found, and thus the plate could have been brought from any other region. The Temnić inscription dates to the end of 10th–11th centuries, while other written records of Cyrillic script in Serbia, Bosnia and Croatia are at least one and a half century younger, moreover, the Temnić inscription was found on the north from the Serbian, Bosnian and Croatian lands where Cyrillic writing spread in the 11th–12th century. The linguistic peculiarities of the inscription are too archaic in comparison with Church Slavic Glagolitic manuscripts of north Macedonian, east Serbian or Croatian provenance: it shows the correct use of the letters for both jer-vowels and ы–и as well, which implies that hard and soft consonants did not yet merge in the dialect of an unknown scribe. The inscription shows traits of higher varieties of Church Slavic: it presents jotized letters, a special sign for palatal consonant ĺ (ꙥ), stop points in the middle of the lines between the word forms which share a common accent. These features are absent from Cyrillic epigraphic of Serbian, Bosnian, and Croatian provenance, while the sign for palatal ĺ (ꙥ) appears in a single Old Bulgarian manuscript and in numerous east Slavic sources which go back to Old Bulgarian archetypes. While surviving Serbian writing provides no witness to the Serbian origin of the inscription, its linguistic features perfectly correspond with manuscripts and inscriptions of Old Bulgarian provenance, and with East Church Slavic writing which goes back to Old Bulgarian sources. Consequently, linguistic data testify to the Old Bulgarian provenance of the Temnić inscription. Besides it, the author discusses regressive palatal accommodation of l after k which remained unknown in the south Slavic historical phonetics by far. The Temnić inscription shows this phenomenon along with other Old Bulgarian and Old Russian Church Slavic manuscripts. Finally, the article provides a new interpretation of three obscure passages in the Temnić inscription and presents its reliable transcription.

The earliest witness of the original text, which Constantine wrote down at the end of the 9th century in the First Bulgarian Kingdom, is the Old East Slavonic manuscript dating to the end of the 11th–beginning of the 12th centuries (this manuscript is sometimes dated to a later period). The manuscript is remarkable for its graphic and orthographic features characteristic only for the earliest Church Slavonic sources of East Slavonic provenance; these sources are dated to the 11th century or to the beginning of the 12th century. At the same time, the manuscript attests phonetic innovations caused by the initial stage of the loss of the jer-vowels, such as “new jat’” and the change of e into o. On the basis of the earliest manifestations of the change of e into o in the written sources, the author argues th...

Настоящий том содержит полный текст уникальной богослужебной рукописи — древнерусского Требника (точнее, Постригальника) конца XIV века, РНБ, Соф. 1056. Эта рукопись, в отличие от других Постригальников XIV века, включает не только последования постригов и погребений, но и ряд чинов, предназначенных для архиерейского богослужения. В частности, в РНБ, Соф. 1056 сохранился древнейший русский текст чинов поставления в священные степени. С точки зрения своего языка рукопись обладает ценностью не только для исследователей истории Церкви и православного богослужения, но и для лингвистов. Издание текста рукописи сопровождается историко-литургическим введением, а также приложением, содержащим статью д. филол. наук. Р. Н. Кривко о языке памятника.

Several documents are published for the first time. Among them are Byzantine historia animae utilis BHG 1277a, an anonymous 9th-century Byzantine treatise in defense of the holy icons, the Slavonic version of a previously unknown Vita of St. Empress Theophano, which is lost in Greek original, and a 13th-century charter from the Monk Bretton Priory in Yorkshire. Several papers are dedicated to heortology and hymnography, especially in the Byzantium and Slavic world (among them, an exhaustive dossier of the earliest Byzantine service menaia available either directly or in Slavonic and Oriental versions), but also presented is an ample dossier of Yezidi religious poetry (containing publications of the texts collected by the author). Cross-cultural studies include such topics as the cult of St Gregory of Armenia in Constantinople, the Roman See’s relations with Korea in the 14th century, and the cult of the martyrs Varangians in the early Christian Kiev. The linguistic studies are dedicated to the Church Slavonic/Old Russian lexicography.

Плита с надписью небольшого размера (ок. 20 × 20 см) сделана из известняка, порода которого отсутствует в месте находки, кроме того, надпись найдена существенно севернее того региона, из которого происходят древнейшие сохранившиеся памятники письменности сербско-боснийско-хорватского ареала. Языковые особенности надписи отражают раннее состояние фонетики, не свойственное архаическим глаголическим рукописям, которые с разной степенью достоверности связываются с сербскохорватским ареалом (Мариинское евангелие, Кло цов сборник): в надписи этимологически правильно употребляются бук вы ъі-и, ъ-ь, что свидетельствует о различении согласных по твер достимягкости перед гласными переднего ряда. Надпись сделана в книжной графике каллиграфического качества. Эти и другие графико-орфографические и фонетические особенности надписи - употребление йотированных, букв, орфограмм ъи и ъі, букв палатальных согласных — находят параллели в древневосточноболгарской письменности и древнерусско-церковнославянских рукописях, восходящих к древнеболгарским оригиналам. Особое внимание
в статье уделено случаям регрессивной палатальной аккомода-
ции l предшествующему заднеязычному k. Наконец, в статье предлагается новое прочтение трех фрагментов надписи и публикуется ее исправленный, по сравнению с предшествующими изданиями, наборный текст.
The Temnić inscription is the oldest surviving written record of Slavic discovered in Serbia (the region of Temnić), however, the original provenance of the inscription is unknown. The tablet with the inscription (approx. 20×20 cm) was made of the limestone absent from the area where it was found, and thus the plate could have been brought from any other region. The Temnić inscription dates to the end of 10th–11th centuries, while other written records of Cyrillic script in Serbia, Bosnia and Croatia are at least one and a half century younger, moreover, the Temnić inscription was found on the north from the Serbian, Bosnian and Croatian lands where Cyrillic writing spread in the 11th–12th
century. The linguistic peculiarities of the inscription are too archaic in comparison with Church Slavic Glagolitic manuscripts of north Macedonian, east Serbian or Croatian provenance: it shows the correct use of the letters for both jer-vowels and ы–и as well, which implies that hard and soft consonants did not yet merge in the dialect of an unknown scribe. The inscription shows traits
of higher varieties of Church Slavic: it presents jotized letters, a special sign for palatal consonant ĺ (ꙥ), stop points in the middle of the lines between the word forms which share a common accent. These features are absent from Cyrillic epigraphic of Serbian, Bosnian, and Croatian provenance, while the sign for palatal ĺ (ꙥ) appears in a single Old Bulgarian manuscript and in numerous east Slavic sources which go back to Old Bulgarian archetypes. While surviving Serbian writing provides no witness to the Serbian origin of the inscription, its linguistic features perfectly correspond with manuscripts and inscriptions
of Old Bulgarian provenance, and with East Church Slavic writing which goes back to Old Bulgarian sources. Consequently, linguistic data testify to the Old Bulgarian provenance of the Temnić inscription. Besides it, the author discusses regressive palatal accommodation of l after k which remained unknown in the south Slavic historical phonetics by far. The Temnić inscription shows this phenomenon along with other Old Bulgarian and Old Russian Church Slavic manuscripts. Finally, the article provides a new interpretation of three obscure passages in the Temnić inscription and presents its reliable transcription.
