  • Summary/Abstract:

    The article is devoted to observations of the text of the Story about Father Agapios in several Middle Bulgarian and vernacular Bulgarian copies from the 14th to the 18th century. A comparison is made between the witnesses found in the Adžar Miscellany (no. 326 in the National Library in Sofia), Panagjurište Miscellany (no. 433 in the same library) and the copy preserved in the Berlin Damaskin (Berl. Slav. Fol. 36, Berlin State Library). Conclusions are drawn regarding the structure of the text and its possible relations to the early Slavonic versions. The examined copies are edited in Appendices 1 and 2.
