The Academic Chronicle (Russian: Московско-Академическая летопись, romanized: Moskovskaya akademicheskaya letopis) or Suzdal' Chronicle (Russian: Суздальская летопись, romanized: Suzdalskaya Letopis)[nb 1] is a late 15th-century compilation of Rus' chronicles. The chronicle was probably compiled in Rostov based on the Primary Chronicle, Radziwiłł Chronicle (events before 1206), Sofia First Chronicle (events 1205–1238), and Rostov collection (events 1238–1418).[2] The chronicle was published in full in the Complete Collection of Russian Chronicles in 1927. The only surviving original is preserved in the Russian State Library.[2] It is an important source for Russian history of the preceding centuries, and is currently being discussed for its importance for early Russian literature.[3]

Notes
edit- ^ The 15th-century Suzdal' Chronicle should not be confused with the 14th-century Suzdal' Chronicle, which covers events from 1111 to 1305 and which survives through the copy in the 1377 Laurentian codex.[1]
