Popis: The author provides materials on the book archeography of the Cyrillic tradition and presents old printed books from the collection of the library of the Ekaterinburg Theological Seminary. The article contains a scientific description of fourteen old printed books of the 17th — early 19th centuries. Five books presented in the article were published by the Moscow Printing House of the 17th century: 1) A convoluted edition consisting of: a) Festal Triodion by the printer Kondrat Ivanov (August 13, 1621); b) Festal Triodion (December 6, 1635); 2) Triodion of the Lent (December 15, 1635); 3) Polemical collection “Cyril’s Book” (April 21, 1644); 4) Book of Hours (July 22, 1653); 5) Synaxarion, with readings for December–February (August 17, 1661). Seven of the presented books were published in the 18th century. And three of them printed by the Synodal Tipography: 1) Service Menaion for June (Moscow, August 1758); 2) Stefan (Yavorsky). Signs of the Coming of Antichrist (Moscow, July 1765); 3) Macarius the Great. Words (St. Petersburg, July 1798). One book, the Flower Garden of Abba Dorotheus, was printed in Grodno, in 1787. Three books were published by request of Old Believers in the Suprasl Printing House of the Uniate Annunciation Monastery: 1) Psalter, 1780 (7288); 2) Collection of early Old Believer writings under the title “The Story of the Fathers and Sufferers of Solovki” [1780s] (according to one of the works included in it); 3) Book of Hours [1788]. Finally, the article ends with the descriptions of two books of early 19th century. Both were issued in Vilna by the printing house of the Holy Trinity Uniate Monastery (like the Suprasl Blagoveshchensky monastery, this one also took orders from Old Believers for printing books, due to commercial interests). The described books are: The Flower Garden, published around 1800; and Psalter, published in the very beginning of the 19th century.
