2017
Abstrakt
This article represents the first part out of two that explore the way Athanasius of Alexandria's anti-Arian motifs were appropriated in the Old Slavonic tradition. The discussion is focused on the reception of Athanasius' Life of Antony and most of the attention is given to the analysis of one particular short version of this writing (preserved in the manuscript BO, Lv. № 38, ff. 506-510, XVI-XVII vv.) where the anti-Arian motifs are appropriated in the most unique way.
