Galician–Volhynian Chronicle: Textology

The results of a long-term project of textological examination of a landmark chronicle of the XIII century, the Galician–Volhynian Chronicle, are presented. Methodical reading and fragmentary explanatory commentary of its text clarifies and substantiates the main milestones in the history of the chronicle: the origin of the current structure of the text; stages of its formation and their sequence; chronology of “editorial episodes”; timing of various fragments of text to certain “editorial episodes”; text sources. The book contains research, systematic commentary, word indexes for the text of the Galician–Volhynian Chronicle (according to the oldest Ipatiev list), as well as a bibliographic index of works on the Galician–Volhynian Chronicle.
