Methodology for a text research in Kiev edition of “The Tale of Igor’s Campaign” by V.M. Peretz, 1926

Abstract

Linguistic and literary analysis of Old Russian literature’s texts implies that a special methodology of studying should be employed. Such a methodology was developed by V. N. Peretz at his “Seminary”, while he was teaching at St. Vladimir’s University in Kiev and at Petrograd University. In the article the principles of reading the text proposed by the scholar are reviewed basing on “The Tale of Igor’s Campaign”, published by V.N. Peretz in Ukrainian in Kiev in 1926.
