    In three of the twelve volumes of the luxury edition of the illustrated encyclopedia of Ivan the Terrible talking about the Macedonian dynasty

    writes Branko Vlahovic
    Our correspondent in Moscow

    MOSCOW - Macedonian historians, and those who wonder what happened in the Balkans centuries ago, you yourself can find answers to many questions while reading and flipping the new facsimile edition of the Russian "illustrated chronicle of the 16th century." By reading the text and looking at beautiful paintings, one at least you can go back a few centuries and see what they thought and knew Russian Tsar Ivan the Terrible and his close associates for Alexander. From these ancient books kept in most museums in St. Petersburg and in Moscow and learned that many Russians know about the wars of Alexander the Great "against all Hellenes and barbarians." Numerous researchers may be able to find these books to proof of relationship to current Macedonians Alexander and many more interesting things. Now there is a chance no rush to browse and analyze chronicles where one can find evidence of serious and theoretical (theoretical) debates. Clearly he is not a chronicle scriptures and it can not be thought as something that is eternal truth, but you can certainly give interesting material, "food for thought".



    Encyclopedia of Russian businessmen thanks - benefactor of ancient chronicles that much talk about the history of the Balkan peoples, now you can see not only historians and privileged but also those who want to know about his past. I just published a facsimile edition of the "illustrated chronicle of the 16th century," they unique ten volumes stored in known Russian museums, can be presented in Skopje if you find sponsors interested. The original title was "Lucevoj chronicle vault 16 centuries." "Lucevoj" of our language could be translated as illustrated. The word "lucevoj" literally means "the person" means the painted faces of people. 10,000 double sided sheets with more than 17,000 painted miniatures, vividly told, windows history shows the early past. So rightfully called these books illustrated encyclopedia.

    The first three volumes of the timeline of medieval Russia given the events of the Bible and world history. In it, among other things, described Trojanskata War, Alexandria, Judah war, Joseph Flavian and more. Other volumes large space is given to the Balkan peoples Serbs, Macedonians and Bulgarians. Especially interesting part of the Macedonians is that which describes and displays the image of Alexander the Great. The territory it ruled speak in the second volume of the illustrated chronicle. The image (587a) presents the life and achievements of Emperor Alexander. Vo volume of the same image (589a) is seen Pella, the capital of Macedonia in the reign of Alexander. For the next picture (615b) is shown as Alexander conquered Elijah peonage and Trivada. Particularly interesting picture (651b) who says that description is shown as Alexander conquered all Hellenes and barbarians. From this some historians draw evidence that he was not Greek, because I fought against his people. However, analysis of the text should make well informed historians for years to deal with this issue, because a journalist is not yet competent. Within the long history of Byzantium, the Chronicle thoroughly describes the Macedonian dynasty of Byzantine emperors, from biographies of its founder Basil.

    Within a millennium of Byzantine history, and detailed frescoes depict the Macedonian dynasty of Byzantine emperors, from describing the life of its founder Basil Makedonjanin, which seemed to be, used as a prototype for the legendary military commander Alexander, who was unaware of defeat and created a great empire. Incredibly accurate, the details are interwoven narratives of these two characters in facial vault. Macedonian dynasty continue Wise Leo VI, his younger brother Alexander and his son Constantine VII Porphyrogenitus (meaning Crvenoroden). He was one of the most educated people of his time, author of "Byzantine arch of practical science", which was composed of the following parts: "The management of Empire," "The ceremonies of the Byzantine court" and "biography of Basil Makedonjanin". The Constantine belong precise formula-definitions of the notions of statehood: the empire is "world ship," Constantinople is "king of the cities of the world," God "has ustolichuva kings on the throne and gives power to manage the whole world," the emperor among his subjects as "Jesus Christ among the apostles" who managed "real, based on law and justice." The ideas of nationhood are processed in subsequent articles in the pages of the facial arch.

    Proof of how important these books is that the idea of ​​a reprint of the Chronicle supported the now former president of Russia, Vladimir Putin and Patriarch Alexei II.

    "Going through the pages of the Chronicle, we feel proud that we had such ancestors who were brave and wise and had great spiritual power", wrote among others Vladimir Putin in writing for future readers of Russian chronicle.



    Two former South BROTHERS excellent students in physics and businessman Vadim Jakunjin Mustafin and Harris, came up with the idea to re-print Russian chronicle and give opportunity to all who want to see and read about its history, but also to learn people close to him. Listing and reading the Chronicle these days, and this writer once again convince the Russians of ancient times were interested in the fate of his "southern brothers".

    Unikantniot chronicle of the 16th century was saved, but few are those who can boast that he had in his hand. His seven books held in St. Petersburg and three in Moscow.

    Thanks to the owner of Moscow's largest pharmaceutical company "Protek" Jekunjin Vedas, which funded the project, are recorded on the books with the most advanced scanner that does the least shtetel the original. Now anyone who wants can have its own set of ten Chronicles.

    The purpose of the Vedas Jakunjin was not to earn money on the books, but to bring the young generation of Russia to better learn its history.

    "I always appreciated people who know the past of their ancestors. I am deeply convinced that a nation can have a good future if you end the relationship with cultural and historical heritage. The Russians are a nation with a great history, but the lifestyle and the time in which we live and make their young offspring, objectively, the less they know about their history. I had the luck to be born in Yaroslavl, which has always been a cultural and educational centers of Russia. So I was always interested history, "said Vadim Jakunjin.

    For the project to realize peak was established a separate company "Akteon", managed by Harris Mustafin. Jakunjin really money complaining and modern scanner was purchased in France.

    Negotiations with museums were not easy, but everything is agreed. The idea originated in April 2004, and in March 2005 it has been signed. For three months udarnichki recorded all 10 volumes beskontaktniot scanner.

    Later designers who are engaged professionally processed each page, so the appearance of the copies was really true to the original. It was spent a year and a half. Special value of new facsimile is that publishers have decided along with books to print explanations of old archaic language. Without these translations majority of people could not understand the old text.

    The owner of the company "Protek", Vadim Jakunjin, invested in buying a machine for printing chronologies. Each page is an artistic masterpiece. Finally people are engaged in a high quality way soshile books.

    Chronicle occurred in the 16th century. In a real sense it is a great illustrated encyclopedia of the world and Russia to the time of Ivan the Terrible. One that will be able to leafed, can testify that it would be interesting not only for professionals but also for ordinary people who love history.



    Kosovo Battle Who wrote this book - historically has not yet been confirmed. As for images, it is believed that they were working craftsmen who painted inside the Kremlin. Such a conclusion is adopted based on the same style, color and content. Nowhere is written that could be the author of that book. It is assumed that the author could be Metropolitan Macarius, who claimed that he was an extremely cultured man.

    The editors of books, apparently could participate Emperor Ivan the Terrible. The tenth volume of the margin is written by hand to fix. It is believed that it could write a king. Enchanting and picture quality, although it is known that at the time the printing technique was high, and the text under the pictures are very interesting. The images are viewed as the period were dressed and armed men and soldiers, what they were building and that trades people occupations.

    As for the Balkans, it is interesting how the Russian Metropolitan Pimen learned of the Kosovo battle. He went to Constantinople in 1389. Went a month after rivers and eventually the Black Sea reached Constantinople and then learned of the news of the loss of Kosovo. This article has razzhalostila Russian monks. Because familiarity with the Serbs, they thought that the Turks can kill quickly and on various roads returned to Russia.

    The Russian chronicle is written that Emperor Murad was of Christian origin. Interestingly, when described as Milos Obilic preshol the Turks and killed their king. According to that story, Milos told the Turks that zameril with King Lazar and was therefore released in Murat. The text under the picture says that Turkey immediately killed "Christian servant." The images in the seventh volume is seen as Turks seize King Lazar and his head cut off.

    Of course, interesting chronologies is that it is written that the first clock in the Kremlin asked Serbian monk who called Lazarus. He came from Serbia and set big wall clock on the Kremlin in 1504.

    The way images are made is called "serpska or South Slavic" koloristika. All images were first cartoon with pencil, then painted.

    It would be very good if the example of Russian businessmen-benefactors would awaken similar desire in our business, as investment in cultural goods is beneficial and lasting investment.

    "When starting this project, our desire was to realize superior. So, we were aware that he can not be a commercial and cash in on it. Wish us one day to make cheaper edition would be available to the people, "said Jakunjin and Mustafin and promising new projects that will delight all who are interested in Slavic history and culture.

    The Macedonians originates it, the Bulgarians imitate it and the Greeks exploit it!
