Mojsije of Dečani ( Serbian: Мојсије Дечанац, romanizedMojsije Dečanac; fl. 1536–1545) was a printer of srbulje liturgical books and Orthodox hierodeacon.

Biography

Mojsije was born to a Serbian family in Budimlja, part of the Sanjak of Scutari of the Ottoman Empire (modern-day Montenegro). [1] He took monastic vows and was a monk at the monastery of Visoki Dečani (in Kosovo).

In the period of 1536–1538 Mojsije was a printer at the Vuković printing house in Venice, Republic of Venice. [2] Besides Mojsije, typographers who worked at the printing house of Vićenco Vuković included also Hieromonk Pahomije, priests Genadije and Teodosije, and laity like Stefan Marinović and Jakov Krajkov. [3]

In 1536 Mojsije printed Zbornik za putnike and in 1537 he participated in printing of the Octoechos. [4] In 1538 Mojsije printed the most luxurious and lengthiest edition of Praznični minej. [5]

When Dimitrije Ljubavić went to Târgoviște in Wallachia he brought with him Mojsije. [6] In 1545 Mojsije, now a hieromonk, printed the first book in Ljubavić's printing house. [7]

Annotations

In Serbian, he is simply known with his monastic rank as "Hierodeacon Mojsije" (Serbian: јерођакон Мојсије, romanized: jerođakon Mojsije). His name translated into English is "Mojsije of Dečani" (Мојсије Дечанац, Mojsije Dečanac). [8] He is also scarcely called "Mojsije of Budimlja" (Мојсије Будимљанин, Mojsije Budimljanin).
