Abstract

The Serbian history of the monastery Chilandariu starts with two preserved privileges, addressed to the monks Symeon and Sabas, the former Great Župan of Serbia Stefan Nemanja and his son Rusticus. The texts have undergone their historical analysis and are basic for the history of the Serbian influence on Mount Athos. A critical edition of both documents with black-white photos is published in the collection of the Archives de l’Athos. Still missing is a mere diplomatic analysis of the documents, how the Byzantine Emperor and his chancery judged the value and importance of these documents. Indicators are the language register (and rhetorisation) and the script. To elaborate this aspect, the two privileges are examined in comparison of the other documents of the imperial chancery under the dynasty of the Angeloi.
