Проф. Димитър Дечев и преводите на „Описание на Източна Европа“ от 1308 г.
Prof. Dimitar Detschew and the Translation of the ‛Description of Eastern Europe’ from the Year 1308

Summary/Abstract: The present study focuses primarily on the earliest Bulgarian translation of an anonymous treatise known as Descriptio Europae Orientalis (1308) by the Bulgarian Latinist D. Detschew. Supplied with a commentary, Detschew’s translation was published in 1923. The present study offers a critical evaluation of Detschew’s work in comparison to some later translations of the same treatise, irrespective of whether these present the whole text or parts of it. Also, the study takes into consideration some questions, for which a definitive answer has not been found yet, such as the one concerning the ethnicity of the fourteenth-century anonymous author.
