Summary/Abstract: THE APOCRYPHAL APOCALYPSE OF JOHN THE EVANGELIST IN A CROATIAN GLAGOLITIC COPY JOHANNES REINHART (VIENNA) (Summary) In this paper the only Croatian Glagolitic copy of the Old Bulgarian translation of the apocryphal Apocalypse of John the Evangelist is published and analyzed on the basis of the Gršković Miscellany of the sixteenth century. As the text has experienced several redactions at different times it contains not only linguistic innovations, but also some errors. The importance of the Croatian text for the reconstruction of the original text is limited. It can be assumed that the Old Bulgarian text of the apocryph came to Croatia at the end of the eleventh or at the beginning of the twelfth century.
