Abstract

Hagiotheca Preslavica (Reconstruction of the Preslav hagiographical collections: Publication and Research of the Stanislav’s menaion chetii 1 manuscript) is a project, developed by a team of young Bulgarian medievalists 2 . Its principal task is the preparation and publication (both digital and traditional) and research of the Stanislav’s menaio ncheti (better known as 1039 manuscript from the “St . St. Cyril and Methodius“ National Library. Although it is a 14 th century copy, the manuscript preserves a number of authentic texts that allow us to reconstruct faithfully the initial contents of menaiachetii, compiled and translated during the Golden Age of the medieval Bulgarian literature and culture. The realization of the project will be completed by webbased, easily navigable digitalization of the Stanislav’s menaion cheti, creation of a matrix for the description of the texts, enabling searching and grouping. This will provide the conditions necessary for the work of the team as well as of the wider academic community.
