Chernovtsy Chrabyr

-

There are no biographical data that would indicate who Chernovetsc was, but it is known that he was somehow related to the church, as evidenced by his name ('chernorizec' = monk). It is assumed that the name "Czernorizec Chrabyr" was the pseudonym of one of the more famous creators of the Preslav school; According to some circumstantial evidence, it may even be the Bulgarian ruler, Simeon I the Great (893-927). Chernorizec Chrabyr is the author of only one literary work, the treatise titled O letters (О ПИСМЕНЕХЪ), which was, however, one of the most famous and most frequently copied in medieval scriptorials of the texts of Old Church and Slavonic literature. It is assumed that the letter O was created after 893.

The treatise on letters is a fervent apology of the Slavic literature and the new alphabet (although there are disputes, whether it is a glagolium or a Cyrillic), created by Saint. Cyril, at the same time is a polemic with critical voices of Greek writers arguing for the superiority of the Greek language and alphabet, or even exclusive use of Greek in the literature. It is also the only known medieval text that gives the exact date of the Slavonic alphabet (maybe a glagolus).

About 80 treatises of the treatise, written in various editions of the Old Church and Slavonic languages, have survived. The oldest of the copies, made by the monk Lavrentija during the reign of Tsar Alexander Ivan, dates back to 1348. The work was printed several times, among others. in Moscow (1637), St. Petersburg (1776) and Suprasl (1781).

Polish translation of the treatise appeared in the anthology of the Sisters of the Slavs in A. Naumova, Cracow 1985.
