Abstract

Paratexts which opened Cyrillic printed books in the Kyiv Metropolitanate commemorated the patrons, or authors, of these editions. The analysis of sources such as letters of dedication and prefaces carried out in the article shows that they were considered as a carrier medium of memory, thanks to which it was possible to build a collective identity. Its basis was a specially modelled vision of history, which at that time served important religious, cultural and even political needs.
