'Harvard Studies and Notes in Philology and Literature : Volume XII' contains two seminal scholarly works that contribute significantly to the fields of comparative literature and Slavic history. The first study, 'The Don Carlos Theme,' offers an exhaustive analysis of the evolution of the Don Carlos narrative across European literature. It traces the historical figure’s transformation into a tragic archetype, examining how various playwrights and authors have utilized the theme to explore political and personal conflict.The second half of the volume focuses on 'The Russian Primary Chronicle,' providing a deep academic engagement with one of the most important foundational texts of East Slavic history. This section investigates the linguistic, historical, and cultural nuances of the chronicle, which serves as the primary source for the early history of Kievan Rus’. Together, these studies represent a pinnacle of early 20th-century philological research, offering rigorous textual analysis and historical context. This volume is an essential resource for researchers and students interested in the persistence of literary themes and the critical evaluation of medieval historical documents.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
