Сведения за цар Самуил в Руския хронограф
Information about Tsar Samuel in the Russian Chronograph

Summary/Abstract: The Russian Chronograph is the only Russian chronicle that includes information about Tsar Samuel and the Cometopuls dynasty. Only this period from Bulgarian history is described differently in the separate editions of the Chronograph. In the First edition from 1512, the main source is the Manasses` Chronicle with the Bulgarian additions to it. In the Basic and Common Editions of 1617, the source is the same, but the text is abridged. In the Western Russian edition, the notices are different, since it uses John Zonara’s Paralipomenon. Only in it does the narrative continue until the final conquest of the Bulgarian lands and information about Gavril-Radomir and Ivan-Vladislav appears.
