Sofia Second Chronicle

Sofia Second Chronicle

The Sofia Second Chronicle is a Russian chronicle from the sixteenth century. It is found in two redactions: The Archival redaction, from the first quarter of the sixteenth century and now in the Russian State Archive of Ancient Documents (RGADA) (Fond 181, No. 371); and the Voskresenskii ("Resurrection") Redaction from the middle of the sixteenth century, now housed in the State Historical Museum (GIM) on the north end of Red Square (Voskresenskoe Sobranie, bumazhnoe, No. 154). It was first published at the beginning of the nineteenth century and is included in the Complete Collection of Russian Chronicles (PSRL, vol. 6; St. Petersburg, 1851).

The Sofia Second Chronicle is thought to have derived from the Lvov Chronicle with which it shares many similarities. [See entry on Sofia Second Chronicle in Ia. S. Lur'e, ed., "Slovar' Knizhnikov i knizhnosti drevnei Rusi," available online at http://lib.pushkinskijdom.ru/Default.aspx?tabid=4296]
