Bibliography Detail
Comparative Study of the Medieval South Slavic Physiologus, Byzantine Recension
Ana Stoykova, 1994-2017
The present Second Version of this site has been submitted to the public domain at the beginning of March, 2012. It replaces the Primary version published an year earlier - in March 2011. In the Primary Version the Old Bulgarian and Greek texts are reproduced by means of thousands of distinct images, whereas the Second version makes use of online unicode fonts for this purpose. This approach enables site visitors to copy directly separate words or whole pieces of the original texts. Another essential change in the Second Version is the publishing of all 43 chapters of the only extant copy of the Pseudo-Basilian Recension of the Physiologus in Slavic translation. It is based on a microfilm of the manuscript preserved at the Library of the St. Panteleimon monastery (Mount Athos), so the inaccuracies of the only former publication of the text from 1893 have been eliminated. The idea for this site as well as all efforts to develop it belong to Dr. Ana Stoykova. She is a Senior Researcher with the Old-Bulgarian Literature Department of the Institute of Literature of the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences (BAS). Among her research interests are Old Bulgarian literature and Cyrillo-Methodian studies, hagiography and hagiology, as well as computer-aided methods and technologies in medievistic research. - [Author]
