Manuscripts and Printed Books from the Slavonic Library

In 2021, the National Library of the Czech Republic – Slavonic Library provided access to six manuscripts and printed books from the 17th–19th centuries from its collections. The printed books are represented by the edition of the Kyiv-Pechersk Paterik (a collection of texts about the monks of the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra) from 1661. The manuscripts comprise texts in Croatian (the play Akile/Achilles by the Croatian playwright Junije Palmotić and a poem by Petar Kanavelić written on the occasion of the mission of the ambassador of Dubrovnik to Constantinople) and in Church Slavonic (a collection of various works, A 2, as well as liturgical and paraliturgical texts).
