CHRONOGRAPHS IN ROMANIAN LITERATURE
CHRONOGRAPHS IN ROMANIAN LITERATURE

Summary/Abstract: This article is about the chronographs, works that describe the history of different nations, but also of the nations they are in contact with. There are two types of genders in Byzantine culture, one is (the) history itself, which describes the events contemporary to the writer. The other type is the chronicle or chronograph, which presents events from the beginning of the world. Some of the chronographs are the Manasses Chronicle, Turcograecia or The Chronicle from 1570. In Romanian culture, there are three types of chronographs: Kigalas (type), Dorothei (type) or Danovici (type).
