Abstract

From the 6th century onwards, Syriac patristic florilegia - collections of Greek patristic excerpts in Syriac translation - progressively became a prominent form through which Syriac and Arab Christians shaped their knowledge of theology. In these collections, early Greek Christian literature underwent a substantial process of selection and re-organization. The papers collected in this volume study Syriac florilegia in their own right, as cultural products possessing their own specific textuality, and outline a phenomenology of Syriac patristic florilegia by mapping their diffusion and relevance in time and space, from the 6th to the 17th century, from the Roman Empire to China.

Abstract

Dans l’oeuvre conservée d’Éphrem de Nisibe (306-373), les recueils d’hymnes ici réunis, de par leur nature polémique, adoptent un ton virulent ou polémique qui tranche singulièrement avec les hymnes à caractère liturgique, généralement mieux connues. Il s’agit pour Éphrem, dans les cinquante-six Hymnes contre les hérésies, de combattre les « doctrines erronées » de trois hérésiarques : Marcion, qui opposait le Démiurge mauvais de l’Ancien Testament au Dieu bon du Nouveau, Bardesane, qu’Éphrem accusait de croire au fatalisme astral, et Mani, le fameux tenant du dualisme ontologique entre le bien et le mal. Quant aux Hymnes contre Julien, qui complètent le prochain tome, le Syrien y polémique contre l’empereur « apostat » dont le règne, bien que très court (361-363), avait constitué une menace pour le jeune empire chrétien initié par Constantin. Au-delà de ces controverses, parmi les thématiques théologiques et spirituelles qu’il développe, le Docteur syrien insiste sur la liberté de l’être humain et sur la valeur positive du corps, en évoquant l’existence chrétienne comme « chemin de vie » et en se montrant, une fois de plus, lecteur virtuose de l’Écriture sainte. Le tome I contient les 29 premières hymnes Contre les hérésies, avec en regard de la traduction française le texte syriaque dans une composition fidèle à sa forme poétique. Le tome II contient les Hymnes contre les hérésies XXX à LVI et, avec une hymne liminale, les Hymnes contre Julien. En regard de la traduction française, le texte syriaque est composé de manière fidèle à sa forme poétique.

Abstract

The Chronicle of Zuqnin is a universal history beginning with the Creation according to the biblical account and ending with the time of the Chronicler, the years 775-776 AD. The author is most probably Joshua the Stylite, a contemporary of the Caliphs al-Mansur and al-Mahdi, who lived in the monastery of Zuqnin that was located near Amid, the Diar-Bakr of modern Turkey. Parts I and II contain compiled sources some of which survived only in this Chronicle. Sources include the Bible, Cave of Treasures, the Sleepers of Ephesus, Eusebius of Caesarea, Socrates, and the short Chronicle called Pseudo-Joshua the Stylite that deals with Sassanian-Byzantine warfare at the begging of the 6th century. Parts III and IV cover the years 488 and 775 AD. In this volume, Parts I and II, including the author's dedicatory letter, are now published in an updated edition of the Syriac text and the first English translation.
