THE OLD RUSSIAN CHRONOGRAPH OF THE THIRD REDACTION IN 182 CHAPTERS. PART 2. THE CHRONOGRAPHIC REDACTION OF THE PATRIARCHAL LETOPISETS FOR THE YEARS 1619–1691

This article studies the newly discovered chronographic redaction of the patriarchal Le-topisets for the years 1619–1691, preserved in the final part of the third redaction of the Chronograph from the collection of V. M. Undolsky in the Russian State Library (Moscow). The chronographic redaction derives from the archetype of the Letopisets for the years 1619–1691 and in some cases renders its text with more completeness than the previously known extensive and brief redactions. It preserves the entries about the Moscow uprising of 1648 (the Salt Riot), the Razin Rebellion, and the Chigirin campaigns, as well as a series of entries about the annexation of the Left-bank Ukraine to Russia, which were included in the archetype of the Letopisets. The compiler of the chronographic redaction mostly selected news related to foreign policy and troubles inside Russia from the archetype but possibly ignored records about local events in Moscow and the royal family. In this respect the chronographic redaction starkly differs from the general protograph of the extensive and brief redactions, which contained a large number of «Moscow-centric» reports. The main text of the chronographic redaction included information up to the year 1686 and was later simultaneously supplemented with entries for the years 1689–1690 and 1696. The final part of the patriarchal brief Chronographets from the OLDP collection in the National Library of Russia (St. Petersburg) is close to the chronographic redaction of the Letopisets. Apparently, it was also based on the archetypal text of the Letopisets for the years 1619–1691. The article is accompanied by the publication of the text of the chronographic redaction of the Leto-pisets for the years 1619–1691.
