Zhizneopisanie (Kniga ne novaia, no v khoroshem sostoianii) - Vrachanskii

"Life Description" was created by the bulgarian Renaissance figure Bishop Sophronius Pizhansky (in the world of Stojko Vladislavov, 1739-1813) around 1804 His manuscript got into the collection of M.P. Pogodin (now in the Russian National Library), where a copy was removed from it by the Slavist V.I. Grigorovich. According to this copy, the work was published (very imperfectly) in the Belarusian newspaper "Dunawski Swan" (1861). The first scientific description of the autograph was carried out in 1907 by A.I. Sobolevsky. In 1914 it was researched by the Bulgarian scientist P.N. Oreshkov.
In the edition of "Literary Monuments" the text of the autograph is reproduced photographically, and then given its scientific publication in the original language and translation.
