Abstracts

The goal of the article is a comparative analysis of rhetorical strategies used by Venetian and Novgorodian chroniclers from the 13th – 15th centuries in accounts of the two conflicts, respectively: power struggle in Venice (1026– 1032) and the „Novgorodian Revolution“ (1136). The author concludes that, while earlier historical accounts from Novgorod and Venice were very much similar, in the later period, due to the differences in the political evolution between the two republics, Novgorod and Venice adopted different rhetorical strategies of history-writing. In what they diverged was mainly a representation of the „political people“, i.e. townspeople enjoying full political rights.
