Academic Chronicle


The Academic Chronicle or Moscow Academic Chronicle, sometimes also known as Suzdal' Chronicle is a late 15th-century compilation of Rus' chronicles. The chronicle was probably compiled in Rostov based on the Primary Chronicle, Radziwiłł Chronicle, Sofia First Chronicle, and a Rostov collection. The chronicle was published in full in the Complete Collection of Russian Chronicles in 1927. The only surviving original was for some time kept in the Moscow Theological Academy, and is currently preserved in the Russian State Library. It is an important source for the history of Kievan Rus' and late medieval Russia, which in the early 21st century was being discussed for its importance for early Russian literature.
