This study describes an XVIIIth century Slavonic manuscript in a Romanian redaction authored by Metropolitan Anastasie Crimca of Moldova, a great lover of books and culture. The presentation of this manuscript – to be found today in the Library of Moscow History Museum – enables us to understand better the scholarly activity of this bishop, and of Moldovan Scriptorium of those times. Together with the description and analysis of this manuscript we present a comparative study of all manuscripts entitled „Apostle” belonging to Metropolitan Anastasie Crimca from the Monastery Dragomirna.
