This is the first attempt to provide comprehensive, annotated lists of the Ecumenical Patriarchs and the Metropolitans and Archbishops under the jurisdication of Constantinople for an English-language audience. Kiminas meticulously delineates the history of each archdiocese, and provides detailed succession catalogs in both English and Greek of the hierarchs of each see, as well as indicating their years of birth and death (when known), and their previous and later ecclesiastical posts. Every serious student of the history of Eastern Orthodoxy will want a copy of this carefully annotated work. "A stunning achievement of scholarship "-Michael Burgess, author of The Eastern Orthodox Churches.
During the tumultuous age of empire, Ottoman Macedonia became a blank canvas onto which Great Powers and neighboring states projected their aspirations, grievances, ambitions, and state-building endeavors. This manuscript aims to elucidate these constructs and imaginaries, employing a theoretical framework encompassing entangled history, post-colonial theory, and subaltern studies. It will examine both (inter)state and local examples to shed light on the multifaceted nature of this complex issue.
In Greek New Testament Manuscripts from Albania Didier Lafleur and Luc Brogly explore the riches of a unique collection of twenty-one Byzantine artefacts, among which the world-famous Beratinus 1 and Beratinus 2, both included by UNESCO in the Memory of the World Register. First described at the end of the 19th century by Anthimos Alexoudis, then revealed to Western scholarship by Pierre Batiffol, yet this collection has remained unknown to textual critics and no major analysis of it has been performed in over a century. Based on a fresh autopsy of the documents, the book describes the artefacts physically and analyses textual features and variant readings of each. This monograph will be of vital interest to any scholar or advanced student in the fields of Greek New Testament textual criticism and codicology.
Paul of Aleppo, an archdeacon of the Church of Antioch, journeyed with his father Patriarch Makarios III ibn al-Za'im to Constantinople, Moldavia, Wallachia and the Cossack's lands in 1652-1654, before heading for Moscow. This book presents his travel notes, preceded by his record of the patriarchs of the Church of Antioch and the story of his father's office as a bishop and election to the patriarchal seat. The author gives detailed information on the contemporary events in Ottoman Syria and provides rich and diverse information on the history, culture, and religious life of all the lands he travelled across.
Hong Kong has been a unique society from its establishment as a political region separate from mainland China in the nineteenth century under British colonial rule until the present day as a special administrative region of the People’s Republic of China. A hub of interregional and international migration, it has been the temporary and long-term home of people belonging to many racial, ethnic, and cultural groups. This book examines the evolution of the community established by clergy and congregants of the Russian Orthodox Church. This community was first developed in the 1930s and then revived after a hiatus of over two decades from the 1970s to the 1990s with the founding of the Orthodo...
Chrześcijaństwo późnej starożytności śledzi chrześcijaństwo w okresie chrześcijańskiego imperium rzymskiego - okresu od powstania chrześcijaństwa za cesarza Konstantyna (ok. 313) do upadku zachodniego cesarstwa rzymskiego (ok. 476). Data zakończenia tego okresu jest różna, ponieważ przejście do okresu podrzymskiego następowało stopniowo iw różnym czasie na różnych obszarach. Można ogólnie określić późne starożytne chrześcijaństwo jako trwające do końca VI wieku i ponownych podbojów Cesarstwa Bizantyjskiego pod rządami Justyniana (panował w latach 527-565), chociaż bardziej tradycyjną datą końcową jest 476, rok, w którym Odoacer zdetronizował Romul...
คริสต์ศาสนาในช่วงปลายสมัยโบราณมีร่องรอยของศาสนาคริสต์ในช่วงจักรวรรดิโรมันคริสเตียน - ช่วงเวลาตั้งแต่การเติบโตของศาสนาคริสต์ภายใต้จักรพรรดิคอนสแตนติน (ค. 313) จนถึงการล่มสลายของอาณาจักรโรมันตะวันตก (ค. 476) วันที่สิ้นสุดของช่วงเวลานี้แตกต่างกันไปเน...
Il cristianesimo nella tarda antichità traccia il cristianesimo durante l'Impero Romano Cristiano - il periodo dall'ascesa del cristianesimo sotto l'imperatore Costantino (c. 313), fino alla caduta dell'Impero Romano d'Occidente (c. 476). La data di fine di questo periodo varia perché il passaggio al periodo sub-romano è avvenuto gradualmente e in tempi diversi nelle diverse aree. Si può generalmente datare il cristianesimo tardo antico come durato fino alla fine del VI secolo e le riconquiste sotto Giustiniano (regnò 527-565) dell'Impero bizantino, anche se una data di fine più tradizionale è 476, l'anno in cui Odoacre depose Romolo Augusto, tradizionalmente considerato l'ultimo impe...
古代末期のキリスト教は、コンスタンティヌス皇帝の下でのキリスト教の台頭(313年頃)から西ローマ帝国の崩壊(476年頃)までのキリスト教ローマ帝国時代のキリスト教をたどります。この期間の終了日は、サブローマン期間への移行が徐々に、さまざまな地域でさまざまな時期に発生したため、異なります。一般に、古代キリスト教後期は6世紀後半まで続き、ビザンチン帝国のユスティニアヌス帝(在位527-565)による再征服と日付を記入することができますが、より伝統的な終了日は476で、オドアケルがロムルス...
