Abstract. The article presents a classifying analysis of ancillary texts in Old East Slavonic hand-written copies of Parimejnik (Old Testament lectionary) from the 12 th – 14 th centuries. It aims to establish parameters for the analytical markup in Parimejnik subcorpus from the "Manuscript" historical corpus, to provide searching based on the fragments values, to demonstrate corresponding fragments in addition to the already existing aligned visualization of manuscripts based on temporal characteristics (dates, days of a week, and services), as well as paroemias and their components (headings and biblical verses). In the text-critical sense, the authors describe components of ancillary texts in various sections of the manuscripts (Nativity-Epiphany, Triodia, Synaxarion), their specificity, and mutual correlation. The variation of ancillary texts in different copies has been discovered, which complicates comparison and alignment in the parallel corpus. From the applied linguistics point of view, the authors propose a classification of the ancillary text components according to several criteria (function, method of execution, the presence of a biblical/hymnographic source, and the place in the sequence of rites). A system of their identifiers and fragmentation parameters into elementary components to establish links in a parallel corpus was also proposed. As a result, it will ensure the search and visualization of fragments of the same type in the corpus.
Key words: Medieval Slavonic manuscripts, Parimejnik (the Book of Paroemias), parallel corpus, ancillary texts, markup.
