Foreword

The four main parts (WORD, IMAGE, IDENTITY, and HISTORY) of this volume are supplemented with an Appendix, which constitutes an organic part of the book. The Appendix contains a Critical edition of the Sophia commentary with an English translation, as well as a Catalogue of the fifteenth-sixteenth-century Sophia images. Apart from bibliographical and other factual references, this Catalogue provides a short iconographic description of the images. Based on the available information, the Catalogue also presents an iconographic classification of the early Sophia images and a survey of the development of the Novgorod Wisdom iconography. In order to avoid repeated descriptions of and bibliographical references to Sophia images, I refer to this Catalogue and its items (as Cat. number) throughout the book.

Translations are my own unless indicated otherwise. Biblical quotations are from the English translation of the Orthodox Study Bible, in which the Old Testament is a translation made from the Septuagint and the New Testament is that of the New King James Version. Accordingly, the numbering of Old Testament biblical (including psalm) verses follows the Septuagint.

I use the simplified Library of Congress system of transliterating Russian Cyrillic into the Latin alphabet, as well as the BukyVede Old Church Slavonic Cyrillic font with the kind permission of Sebastian Kempgen.

This volume is an updated and extended version of my doctoral dissertation defended in 2017 at the University of Cambridge.
