From our friends at St. Tikhon's Monastery, we now have a two-volume collection on Pre-Pub that includes the Svit Orthodox prayer book (in parallel English-Slavonic), along with a Slavonic-Russian-English dictionary!

There's also a classic Russian Grammar on Community Pricing, inching closer to completion.

Enjoy. Cool

    So we need one of the following - I don't remember what we used in historical linguistics:

    Old Church Slavonic: An Elementary Grammar by S. C. Gardiner
    Old Church Slavonic Grammar by Horace G. Lunt
    An Introduction to Old Church Slavic by William R. Schmalstieg
    Grammar of the Church Slavonic Language by Alypy Gamanovich and John Shaw

    or something decent that is out of copyright. Those with an Indo-European linguistic approach allow people to leverage their Greek or Latin.

    Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."

    I'm checking on the de Gruyter title (Lunt). I'll let everyone know what I find out.

    There's a lot more I can get for us in Slavonic if we get the appropriate surrounding texts (Grammars, Dictionaries, etc.), too.

    I'm also talking with Holy Trinity Monastery about the fourth one on your list. We'll see.
