The adventures of October 22nd are not over yet. Wrote, that during the evening attack by Muscovites in Kyiv, 4 people were injured, a synagogue in the Podilskyi district was hit. I did not hear this alarm or the sounds of battle (October 23, 2025 at 8:01).
The list of figures who will be mentioned in this work has not changed much compared to 1512 [Zharkykh M. I. Battle of Vyshnivts 1512 – K.: 2025, section «Actors»]. Unless Pope Julius II died in early 1513, and a new pope named Leo the 10th (Giovanni de’ Medici) was elected. Also, Peter Tomicki, one of the archdeacons, was named in 1514, and then on February 19, 1515, he was consecrated as the bishop of Przemyśl.
This anthology contains, if not 100, then at least 90% of what we know about the war of 1512-1514. It does not include later fantasies on the themes of this war, which are not sources at all. Historians are happy to use these late fictions in their works, but I have rejected them.
From this anthology, the reader can reflect on what rags are used to sew the magnificent robes of rulers, whose incomplete, fragmentary, contradictory, and often tendentious reports form the basis of our knowledge of the events of the early 16th century. But we have no other sources.
I also note that in the comments to the documents I provided some considerations that are not mentioned in the "Course of Events" section.
The translations of the texts from Latin were performed at my request by Google’s Gemini 3 artificial intelligence, for which I express my sincere gratitude. The translations of Viktor Talakh were also used, to whom I am also sincerely grateful for his help (his translations are clearly noted).
