On the question about author of Preslav's translation of scala paradisi of Johannes Climacus

Abstract

In the article the basic features
of the first slavic (Preslavs) translation of
Scala Paradisi of Johannes Climacus under the
most ancient Russian manuscript of the middle
of XII century in comparison to the basic features
of translations of John Ekzarh Bolgarsky
came to light. In translation of Scala Paradisi of
Johannes Climacus all main principles of translational
activity of John Ekzarh Bolgarsky are
reflected. It allows to assume, that Preslavs
translation of Scala Paradisi is executed either
by John Ekzarh, or translators of his school.
