Summary/Abstract: Presented in the text are the hymnographic works in Greek and Slavonic for St. Clement of Ohrid, which are part of the manuscript collection of the Zographou monastery in Mount Athos. The earliest mentioning of St. Clement are found in the so called Compiled Zographou charter (Svodna Zografska gramota) and in the Verse Prolog (Stishen Prolog) from the 16th century (Zogr. 47). The liturgical texts in the Greek manuscripts date from the middle of the 19th century and they are transcripts of the printed editions of the services for St. Clement from Moschopolis and Venice. The Slavonic liturgical texts are translations by hieromonk Kalistrat done in the end of the 19th century, copies of which have been made until the 1930s. One of the manuscripts (Zogr. 418) is the clean copy of the translation, presented to Exarch Iosif in Constantinople. In the same manuscript the translator (hieromonk Kalistrat) shares his incentives for translating the text and the difficulties he went through.
