Excerpta Sangallensia as the chronicle

2018

Античная древность и средние века, Vol 44, Iss 0, Pp 24-36 (2018)

The presented research opens features of the maintenance and the form of the compilation made in IX century known as Excerpta Sangallensia and duplicating fragments from a number of consular lists of Roman Empire and Ostrogoths Kingdom of Ostrogoths 5th – to 6th centuries. Is shown that this source has kept all signs of the chronicle of late antiquity. The document maintenance, however, finds out medieval signs: an abundance tragically, disturbing (with an eschatological charge) information, fixation only especially significant (for concrete year) events, aspiration to chronological definiteness of the fixed facts. The distinctions between Roman and Ravennas by origin with in-formation streams in Excerpta concern especially local events. The data of this document, however, is equivalent, without dependence from Roman or Ravennas origins of the facts shined with it, dates and estimations.
