Sažetak
The paper explores textual correlations between this eschatological narrative and a copy of a related text from the “Plovdiv Miscellany” 116 (54) entitled “Čudesa jako hote priti na zemlju ka sudnjemu dnevi” (“Miracles of Judgment Day”) 101a–108b. Although the miscellanies are contemporaneous and both are written in Cyrillic script, the first hails from a Catholic region while the second hails from an Orthodox region. The structure of these texts reveals similarities to “El giudicio generale,” a text published in 1537 by Francesco Benvenuto, but it displays a tradition older than its earliest surviving printed copy. The events portrayed in all three texts depict the fifteen days of the end of times; both “Libro od mnozijeh razloga” and the “Plovdiv Miscellany” display textual correspondences from the first day [“kako jedanь mirь sazidanь” 52b : “jako mirь zidanь” 101b]. The discovery of these correspondences is of exceptional significance for the understanding of the atmosphere in which the “Plovdiv Miscellany” was written, representing what would be the second confirmation of the possibility this miscellany contains traditional
texts from the hinterland of Dubrovnik. Specifically, research on the “Plovdiv Miscellany” has noted that a part of the chronicle relates to the construction of Dubrovnik’s walls (120a: “od Adama ljeta 620. poče se graditi Dubrovnik od Cavtata”).
