The Manuscript of the Collection of E.E. Egorov, Which Belonged to Archpriest Daniel Temnikovsky

The article is devoted to a little-known manuscript of the third quarter of the 16th century, containing the hagiographies of Gregory of Akragantium, Philaret the Merciful and Savva the Sanctified and unique owner’s inscriptions of the 17th century. The purpose of this work is to trace the book’s existence and to introduce it into the scientific turnover as a new historical source related to the fate of a famous Old Believer figure – Archpriest Daniel Temnikovsky. The study of numerous records left in the 17th—19th centuries in the margins of the book by its owners showed that as early as 1630 the collection was in the Arkhangelsk lands, and in 1636 it was sold by the landowner Pavel Timofeevich Goloperov to Vasily, a priest of the church of Zosima and Savvatiy of Solovetsky and the church of Nikola the Wonderworker in the Nizhny (Nikolskiy) Posad in Kholmogory. It turned out that the further fate of the manuscript is connected with its new owner — the archpriest of the cathedral church of Transfiguration and Nikola the Wonderworker in Temnikov Daniil Nikitich Temnikovsky, who left his autographic record in the margins of the book (not earlier than 1650—1652). This circumstance is introduced for the first time into the scientific turnover against the background of the well-studied biography of the protopope, known for his court proceedings and defence of the principles of the old faith, for which he was imprisoned in Moscow’s Novospassky monastery by order of Patriarch Nikon, and in 1673 exiled by the Novgorod metropolitan Joakim to the Derevyanitsky monastery. The similarity of the binding of the Egorov collection (made in 1630) with the binding of another manuscript from the collection of E.E. Egorov, which was used in the Arkhangelsk lands, on Vychegda, is noted. The further fate of the book under study is traced up to its acquisition in the late 19th century by Old Believer merchants N.P. Nikiforov and then E.E. Egorov.
