Abstract
The so-called Chapter on the King (Konungsbalken) of Sweden’s medieval legislation (the Landslag) is one of the most significant documents in Nordic history. It postulated the political and legal foundations of the medieval Swedish Realm. The Russian translation and the preface are based upon the critical editions of the source and on advanced scholarly studies. The translator has also performed a study of two medieval manuscripts of the Landslag preserved in Moscow and St. Petersburg.
