Contents:
On May 22-24, 1979, the Symposium on Middle Greek and Slavic Literatures was held in Thessaloniki, Greece, with the special topic of "The Correlations of Syllogai/Sborniki." The article notes that this symposium was organized by the Hellenic Association of Slavic Studies and was the first major event held in Greece on Slavic studies. It criticizes the structure of the conference and some of the presentations for being too arcane and then provides a summary of some of the more interesting papers on the topics of complication vs. composition, the taxonomy of syllogai/sborniki, individual compilations, authors of compilations, and contexts of compilations. Examples of some of the presentations include: “Compilation and Composition: Two Levels of Authorship in the Orthodox Slavic Tradition” by Riccardo Picchio (Yale); “La manipulation des textes traduits: des slova aux sborniki” by William R. Veder (Nijmegen); “Die griechischen Handschriften des 15.-18.Jahrhunderts: Prolog zu einem Forschungsprogramm” by Euthymius Litsas (Thessaloniki); and “A Preliminary Survey of Greek and Slavic Florilegia Prior to the 14th Century” by Francis J.
