Speaking as an Iconoclast: Another’s Voice in 9th-Century Hagiography
Travaux et Memoires. 2020. Vol. 24. No. 2. P. 359–376.
The article explores the phenomenon of “another’s speech” in ninth-century hagiography taking as a starting point the discrepancies between the languages of the two opposing parties in the iconoclast controversy. Three texts are taken into consideration: the Life of Stephen the Younger, the Life of the Patriarch Nikephoros, and the Life of Michael the Synkellos. The analysis shows that with most verisimilitude the iconoclast language is reproduced in the source most
remote chronologically from the events it reports, whereas the highest degree of distortion is characteristic of the earliest one.

This book is a metaphysical inquiry into the nature and origin of the manifold. Taking Schelling’s Erlangen lectures of 1820–1821 as its point of departure and hermeneutic horizon, it develops an interpretation of Nomos that transcends its political, juridical, and social determinations. Nomos thereby emerges as the ontological principle of an infinite, variegated multiplicity of ...

Новая книга Д. Файзова пронизана голосами других поэтов. Речь не о расхожей постмодернистской центонности. Это микроинтертекстуальность на уровне конкретных слов и приемов, коллаж осколков чужих голосов, однако таких осколков, которые сохраняют способность отсылать к целому и к тому же вписаны — вклеены на манер аппликации — в узнаваемую интонацию самого поэта. Данил Файзов—поэт, культуртрегер, редактор. ...

The academic vocabulary used to describe the Iconoclastic Controversy in Byzantium includes both authentic Middle Greek lexemes and artificial terms coined in 16th–17th-century Western Europe, developed in the context of Reformation theological debates. The former category is largely represented by terms referring to the so-called Iconoclasts (εἰκονομάχοι, εἰκονοκλάσται, εἰκονοκαῦ[σ]ται), while the latter includes designations for ...

This article examines the historical semantics of the post-classical Greek word χριστιανοκατήγορος (literally, “an accuser of Christians”).

A profession of faith preserved in Princeton MS 180 (13th century, 2nd half) is wrongly indexed in the catalogue of Greek manuscripts at Princeton and the database Pinakes as an unpublished text by Germanos I, patriarch of Constantinople (715–730). Upon closer examination, it appears to be a later compilation that draws upon at least three ...

The chapter provides a reassessment of the two interpretative models used for the analysis of Palaeologan hagiography, the ‘old saints’ paradigm and the ‘metaphrasis’ paradigm. After a concise description of the sources, the argument develops in three steps. Firstly, a distinction is drawn between the two dichotomies—‘old’ vs ‘new’ saints and ‘rewritings’ vs ‘original compositions’. ...

The controversy over the confiscation of church vessels during the reign of Alexios I is referred to as ‘Komnenian Iconoclasm.’ However, its salient feature is the reluctance of both parties to accuse their opponents of Iconoclasm. Alexios’ supporters and adversaries mastered the art of periphrasis and allusion, so that the shadow of Iconoclasm loomed over ...

Scholars of Byzantine Iconoclasm treat the heresiological text entitled On councils and heresies and attributed to Germanos of Constantinople with caution, because its anti-iconoclastic chapters are considered to be later additions.

The Brief ekphrasis of the Holy Land ascribed to a certain Ioannes Phokas is a very unusual piece of literature because, unlike other ekphraseis, it deals with a journey.
