Abstract
The Lives of the Saints compendium by Dymytriy Tuptalo belongs to a special type of rewritten
literature representing a collection of already existing and retold texts. The paper discusses
how numerous authors, often distanced in time, can coexist within one text. It focuses on
the combination of various (medieval and early modern) approaches in the gathering of
a hagiographical collection, as well on Tuptalo’s individual traits as a hagiographer-compiler,
his original source processing, and his collaboration with predecessors. The paper attempts to
reveal the characteristic features of the compendium that provide a better understanding of the
concept of the author and authorship in the process of metaphraseis.
