Abstract: This article is the second part of a two-part study of the relationship between the full menology to the 13th-century western Bulgarian Karpino Gospel (“KE”), a family of Greek full menologies (the “α family”), and five other related Greek and Slavic menologies. Part I1 contains the introduction, the manuscript descriptions (section one), and an interlinear transcription of the KE menology commemorations and their α-family equivalents (section two). Part II begins with section three, an analysis, organized by typikon tradition, of uncommon calendar entries and textual formulae which are shared by KE and the Greek family members, but which only infrequently co-occur in the earliest Slavic menologies. Subsection 3.4 offers a tentative hypothesis regarding the place of KE within the rough stemma of the family. Section four, which also is organized by typikon tradition, examines the Greek α-family commemorations that are omitted from KE; conversely, section five examines the commemorations in KE that are not shared by the Greek family, and explores the relationship of KE and the α family to the three 13th- and 14th-century Slavic menologies introduced in Part I that, like KE, contain unusual α-family commemorations. Section six examines distribution patterns of the rare KE and/or Greek family commemorations in the three Slavic apostoli menologies and one Slavic tetraevangelion described in section three below. Section seven offers general conclusions and a full stemma of proposed relationships among KE, the Greek α-family members, and the additional six Slavic and Greek gospel menologies in the orbit of the Greek α family. Part II is followed by Appendix I, a list of the manuscripts referred to by codes in the study. Appendix II is a spreadsheet of all the commemorations contained in KE, in each of the Greek α-family members, and in each of the other five menologies in the family's orbit. |
