English to German translations [PRO]
Science - History / History of Soviet Science
English term or phrase: F. op. d. ll.
abbreviations in footnotes indicating the location of primary sources in Soviet archives.

I suspect F. might be "file" and d. probably "document". I have no idea what ll. and op. might stand for. If anybody could help me out, I would be really grateful. Many thanks in advance!

Explanation:

https://www2.warwick.ac.uk/fac/soc/economics/staff/mharrison...
for the method of identifying files.

The guide to Russian archives, see http://www.iisg.nl/abb/rusfed.php, lists GAAO for four different regional archives. So you'd have to be more specific about the place.


In your case F. 5577, op. 1, d. 549 a, ll. 20-23. -
F / Fonds / Aktenbestand is for the respective group of files,
op. is for detailed description of the group or part of the group / Findbuch,
d. is for file/Akte, in this case Akten-Nummer 549 a.

II. as was clarified by Jan himself is for pages / pagination.

I would also leave the abbreviations untranslated.
Thanks for adding the explanation of ll.


Sorry for the silence, I had a grave computer problem for various days.
