Abstract

This volume is the first work devoted to the contacts between Latin and Coptic in late antique and Byzantine Egypt. It follows in the footsteps of a renewed interest in this multilingual and multicultural area, but it approaches an untapped theme aiming to show that it can profitably be explored. The papers examine different type of evidence on the basis of a multi-perspective approach. Some of them deal with wide-ranging issues, such as the presence of Latin in monastic or scholastic contexts alongside local varieties, some others deal with specific subjects, such as the use of Latin in a certain milieux or in specific documents. All papers show that the contact between languages, scripts and cultures took many forms depending on various factors. Questo volume è la prima opera dedicata ai contatti tra latino e copto nell’Egitto tardoantico e bizantino. Esso si pone nel solco di un rinnovato interesse per quest’area multilingue e multiculturale, ma affronta un tema inesplorato con l’obiettivo di dimostrare che questo può essere indagato con profitto. I contributi esaminano fonti di diverso tipo sulla base di un approccio pluridisciplinare. Alcuni di essi affrontano temi di ampio respiro, come la presenza del latino in contesti monastici o scolastici accanto a varietà locali, mentre altri trattano questioni circoscritte, come l’uso del latino in determinati ambienti o in specifici documenti. Tutti i contributi mostrano che il contatto tra lingue, scritture e culture ha assunto forme diverse a seconda di vari fattori.

Abstract

Das spätantike und frühmittelalterliche Mediterraneum war durch eine enorme kulturelle und sprachliche Vielfalt gekennzeichnet. Zugleich schuf das Christentum Verbindungen, die sich unter anderem in gemeinsamen Erzählungen vom Königtum niederschlugen. Diese waren indes auch von weiteren Traditionen beeinflusst, griechisch-römischen, persischen, wie auch kaukasischen und anderen. Der Sammelband erörtert die Vorstellungen und Debatten über den guten christlichen Herrscher in verschiedenen Kontexten sowie Sprachen und beachtet dabei besonders diejenigen, die an der Peripherie stattfanden, etwa im Kaukasus oder in Nubien. Zum Vergleich werden auch nicht-christliche Konzepte herangezogen. Dadurch sollen Verflechtung und Verbundenheit der mediterranen Kulturen deutlich werden, aber auch die Konfliktlinien, die unter den Christen sowie zwischen ihnen und anderen Kulturen bestanden. Auf diese Weise integriert der Band allgemeine Geschichte und die Geschichte des christlichen Orients und versucht so eine Vielzahl von Spezialstudien für eine übergreifende Fragestellung fruchtbar zu machen. The late antique and early medieval Mediterranean was characterized by wide-ranging cultural and linguistic diversity. Yet, under the influence of Christianity, communities in the Mediterranean world were bound together by common concepts of good rulership, which were also shaped by Greco-Roman, Persian, Caucasian, and other traditions. This collection of essays examines ideas of good Christian rulership and the debates surrounding them in diverse cultures and linguistic communities. It grants special attention to communities on the periphery, such as the Caucasus and Nubia, and some essays examine non-Christian concepts of good rulership to offer a comparative perspective. As a whole, the studies in this volume reveal not only the entanglement and affinity of communities around the Mediterranean but also areas of conflict among Christians and between Christians and other cultural traditions. By gathering various specialized studies on the overarching question of good rulership, this volume highlights the possibilities of placing research on classical antiquity and early medieval Europe into conversation with the study of eastern Christianity.

Abstract

From the great commentary on the first historical books of the Old Testament (CPG 7430) by Procopius of Gaza (465/470–526/530), this volume includes the commentary on the book of exodus, published for the first time in the complete Greek text. Alongside Procopius’ continuous text is hidden a collection of excerpts from works whose original versions have been lost, including by Origen and Didymus the Blind. Prokop von Gaza (ca. 465/470–526/530) verfasste einen großen Kommentar zu den ersten Geschichtsbüchern des Alten Testaments (CPG 7430, bisher fälschlich als Catena in Octateuchum oder Catena in Heptateuchum bezeichnet). Hier wird die kritische Edition des zweiten Teils, des Exoduskommentars, vorgelegt; sie enthält zum ersten Mal den vollständigen griechischen Text. Hinter dem fortlaufenden Texts Prokops verbirgt sich eine Sammlung von Exzerpten aus der Bibelexegese der griechischen Kirchenväter, die man zu seiner Zeit für die gültige Auslegung des Alten Testaments hielt. Besonderen Quellenwert haben diejenigen Exzerpte, für die sich in der uns erhaltenen Überlieferung keine Vorlage, oft nicht einmal der Name des Autors, identifizieren lässt; hier verbergen sich Fragmente, die in ihrer vollständigen Fassung verloren gegangen sind, zum Beispiel, weil ihre Verfasser auf späteren Konzilien zu Ketzern erklärt wurden. Für die Exegese des Exodus ließen sich insbesondere Fragmente des Origenes und Didymus des Blinden identifizieren, die sonst nicht erhalten sind. Das Werk ist daher eine wichtige Quelle für alle, die sich mit der Älteren Kirchengeschichte oder der Exegese des Alten Testaments beschäftigen.
