Abstract

The author introduces the previously unknown handwritten text of the translation of “Logic” of St. John of Damascus. The article gives the paleographic description of the manuscript, presents the structure of the text and determines the research prospects for working with the manuscript in the future. The author provides a review of scientific sources on the translations of Andrei Kurbsky and a brief textual analysis of the manuscript from Wojnowo. The texts from the book collection of former Savior and Holy Trinity Monastery in Wojnowo supplemented the list of works created (translated) in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth and adopted by the local Old Believer book tradition. The analyzed manuscript is a unique monument to the book heritage of the Old Believers of the Baltic countries, since other lists of translations of philosophical works originating from the Kovel circle of Kurbsky are currently unknown.
