J.G. Sparwenfeld's Diary of a Journey to Russia 1684-87

Two series of Slavica Suecana are published: A - Publications and B - Studies. The aim of Slavica Suecana is to publish previously unedited and reprint old published documents relating to Slavica in Swedish archives and libraries, as well as to publish the results of scholary investigation concerning such material. The idea for the Slavica Suecana logotype originates from Sparwenfeld's diary of his Russian journey. There he describes a tree he observed on the Swedish-Russian border, with a crown carved in its bark on the Swedish side and a cross on the Russian.
