Notes on “Ordinary” Tǎrnovo Manuscripts and Scribes During the First Half and Middle of the Fourteenth Century

Summary/Abstract: NOTES ON “ORDINARY” TǍRNOVO MANUSCRIPTS AND SCRIBES DURING THE FIRST HALF AND MIDDLE OF THE FOURTEENTH CENTURY ANATOLII A. TURILOV (MOSCOW) (Summary) 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).
