Robinson, Therese Albertine Louise von Jacob, 1797-1870

"Historical View of the Languages and Literature of the Slavic Nations"

Lewicky, _Grammatik der ruthenischen
oder kleinrussischen Sprache in Galizien_, Przinysl 1836, to which is
annexed a short history of the Ruthenian Literature, the Russinian and
White-Russian dialects seem to be wholly confounded.]
[Footnote 27: Schaffarik mentions that an Old Slavic Grammar and a
Dictionary were prepared and ready in manuscript, by Vostokof, in
1826. Whether these works have been since printed we are not
informed.]
[Footnote 28: Very valuable and detailed notices on all the subjects
in immediate connection with the Old Slavic and modern Russian Bible,
are to be found in Henderson's _Biblical Researches and Travels in
Russia_, Lond. 1826. As this book is accessible in this country, and
our limits are narrow, we abstain from giving more than a general
reference to it, as containing the best information on Slavic matters
ever written in the English language. The reader will find there too a
table of the Cyrillic and Glagolitic alphabet, taken from Dobrovsky's
_Institutiones_.]
