Abstract

The article aims at interpreting the chronicle-texts about Princess Olga. These texts served as basis for various approaches to the figure of Olga, out of which the author shows the "hagiographic", "church-historical", "historical", "textological", "mythic" and some other variants. All of them are characterized by a certain reduction of the chronicle-text, restricted, as a consequence, to aspects fitting in with the given interpretation. On the other hand, these texts are completed and amplified by the critics. The paper elaborates on another possible interpretation based on the reading of the chronicle text as a whole and on the revealing of the internal logic of the chronicle narrative. In the final part an attempt is made to arrive at an understanding of Olga refusing the traditional setting "Olga, the pagan" against "Olga, the Christian". According to this interpretation the figure of Olga relies on the trans-formation of "pagan finesse" into "Christian wisdom".
