OТКЛОНЕНИЯТА ОТ ГРЪЦКИ В ПРЕПИСИТЕ НА "ТРЕТО СЛОВО ПРОТИВ АРИАНИТЕ" ОТ АТАНАСИЙ АЛЕКСАНДРИЙСКИ В ПРЕВОД НА КОНСТАНТИН ПРЕСЛАВСКИ
THE DEVIATIONS FROM THE GREEK PROTOTYPE IN TWO COPIES OF ATHANASIUS OF ALEXANDRIA'S "THIRD ORATION AGAINST THE ARIANS", TRANSLATED BY KONSTANTIN OF PRESLAV

Summary/Abstract: After analysis of two copies of the Third Oration against the Arians (the oldest one in the collection of Pogodin №968 of 1489 and the printed copy of Uspenskij in Great Menaion-Chetyi of Metropolitan Makarij) the author concludes, that the two copies are branches of the same common prototype, transferred from Preslav to Novgorod in X-XI c. The Slavonic "Third Oration" follows a mixed Greek version of the traditions x and RSP and has been edited in terms of terminology in the late Preslav. A list of all differences is attached. The two texts shows the same deviations from Greek and have the same specific peculiarities of translation, but the Slavonic template of Uspenskij has been subject of a graphic reform similar to that of Patriarch Evtimii of Tyrnovo. A question is asked about the possible existence of copy of Preslav's translation in Mount Athos at the time of Evtimii. Some parallels between Evtimiis Encomium of Konstantin and Elena and the Russian versions of the sources for the compiled Encomium are evidences for the probable existence of Konstantin's pro-Vita in Preslav. The text of the Konstantin's Vita has been used in Novgorod at the time of Metropolitan Ilarion. The Athanasius' Vita, placed before the Oration against the Arians, is an early Slavonic compilation, belonging to the hagiographic collection for May as the Vita of Konstantin.
