Reference points in the historiography of the Noul Neamţ Monastery. Issues and interpretations

Summary/Abstract: The history of the Noul Neamţ Monastery (1864), both ecclesiastic and secular, is known mainly by sources published in the late 19th - early 20th centuries. Few papers written in recent years do not cover the entire variety of issues regarding the history of the monastery and its library. Large contribution to the historiography of the monastic library introduced hieromonk Andronic (1820-1893), who compiled the first catalogues of the collection. These catalogues require complex research involving long-term work with book collections in Moscow (State Historical Museum, Funds of Barsov and Shchukin), Saint-Petersburg (Library of the Academy of Sciences, Fund of Yatsimirsky) and in local archives (National Archives of the Republic of Moldova), which houses most of the catalogues (1864-1962) and a collection of books from the Noul Neamţ monastic library (1199 volumes).
