Summary/Abstract: The article offers a brief account on the original and the translated works, dating back to the beginning of the Old Bulgarian literature and letters, presented in manuscripts produced in the Bulgarian lands during the last period of the Medieval tradition and the time of occurrence of the first New Bugarian texts in the miscellanies called damaskini. The works’ dissemination is examined against the background of the activity of the known scribal centres and against the characteristics of the entire 17th-century literary repertoire, and is considered to be the key feature of the tendency towards archaising. The list of the Old Bulgarian works imcludes prayers found in euchological manuscripts, some translated vitae and apocryphal texts, the Priest Jeremiah’s Story about the Holy Three, and a few homilies and sermons of St. Kliment of Ochrid, incorporated in books of traditional contents and in the New-Bulgarian damaskini.
