Jahrhunderts schuf vor allem mit der hier vorliegenden 2., wesentlich erweiterten Ausgabe dieses Werks - die Erstausgabe war im Jahr 1852 unter dem Titel “Lexicon linguae slovenicae veteris dialecti” erschienen - “...das zweifellos beste vorhandene (alt)kirchenslavische Wörterbuch”, welches “ein gutes Jahrhundert lang ein klassisches Standardwerk der Paläoslovenistik” war, “für die Slavisten von großer Bedeutung und einfach unentbehrlich. Darüber hinaus wird dieses Opus als ein abgeschlossenes (bis zum Ende des Alphabets geführtes) lexikographisches Werk und als das einzige Wörterbuch, das alle kirchenslavischen Redaktionen berücksichtigt [u. a. das Altrussische], noch lange seinen Wert behalten und der Wissenschaft gute Dienste leisten ..."
