Russian term or phrase: отодвигали дату

English translation:re-date the poem (epic), change the dating (of a poem)
Explanation:
... re-dated the poem (epic) further away from 1185 - first they put it in late 12th century, then in early 13th century, and later still.

A German scholar, who is actually an English Anglican Reader called Carsten Thiede, has re-dated two fragments from a library and another fragment from the Dead Sea Scrolls. He said that they were actually very early copies of Matthew and Mark. They were only small fragments, just half a verse or even less. He made the claim that they should be re-dated much earlier than most other handwriting experts had thought. Thiede suggested putting them in the 60’s AD, including the Matthew fragments.

Для Евгения:

Полагаю, что move a date означает \"перенести дату\" (проведения собрания, праздника и т.п.).
