Mojsije of Dečani

Mojsije of Dečani (Мојсије Дечанац; 1536–1545) was a printer of srbulje liturgical books and Orthodox hierodeacon.

Biography
Mojsije was born to a Serbian family in Budimlja, part of the Sanjak of Scutari of the Ottoman Empire (modern-day Montenegro). He took monastic vows and was a monk at the monastery of Visoki Dečani (in Kosovo).

In the period of 1536–1538, Mojsije was a printer at the Vuković printing house in Venice, Republic of Venice. Besides Mojsije, typographers who worked at the printing house of Vićenco Vuković included also Hieromonk Pahomije, priests Genadije and Teodosije, and laity like Stefan Marinović and Jakov Krajkov.

In 1536, Mojsije printed Zbornik za putnike and in 1537, he participated in printing of the Octoechos. In 1538, Mojsije printed the most luxurious and lengthiest edition of Praznični minej.

When Dimitrije Ljubavić went to Târgoviște in Wallachia he brought with him Mojsije. In 1545, Mojsije, now a hieromonk, printed the first book in Ljubavić's printing house.

Annotations
In Serbian, he is simply known with his monastic rank as "Hierodeacon Mojsije" (јерођакон Мојсије). His name translated into English is "Mojsije of Dečani" (Мојсије Дечанац). He is also scarcely called "Mojsije of Budimlja" (Мојсије Будимљанин).
