Abstract
The purpose of the article is to carry out a comparative analysis of the news contained in the registration books of «all sorts of things» of the Military Chancery of 1701-1708 and legislative acts published in the Complete Collection of Laws of the Russian Empire (CCL). This study aims to investigate the informativeness of the Registration books. The fact that these books contain many unique unknown documents is stressed. The article outlines some principles of the selection and publishing of legislations which were used by drafters of the Complete Collection of Laws. The author draws conclusions that drafters of the Complete Collection of Laws were completely unacquainted neither with the data from the original Registration books, nor with the extracts of these books which were made for the famous Russian-German historian G.-F. Müller. The study is carried out with the financial support of the Russian Foundation for Basic Research within the framework of the scientific project № 19-09-00464 «Registration books of the Military Chancery of 1701–1709: research and publication».
