DOI of the paper: 10.15382/sturV201726.40-56
Abstract
The Menologion is a system of fi xed church feasts arranged according to the calendar sequence from September to August. The section of the Menologion that contains kontakia (or kontakia and oikoi) dedicated to Saints constitutes the most signifi cant part of the singing book Kondakar (Russ. кондакарь). This article for the fi rst time presents an integrated comparative study of all extant menologia from Russian Kondakars. The main results of the study are as follows: 1) full index of feasts contained in all Kondakar menologia; 2) index of feasts, which form a certain “liturgical nucleus” of the singing book in question; 3) register of unique feasts located in only one MS; 4) corrections in dating of some MSs.
