Ex-library with spine label removed light bump to rear fore tail corner; exceedingly clean and sharp with sound binding and no evidence of use. Shipped professionally in a box. 'This book explores anti-Chalcedonian asceticism in Palestine an area that has so far been relatively neglected in academic studies. Anti-Chalcedonian asceticism in Palestine is significant because it was in Jerusalem in the middle of the 5th century that monks who opposed the Council of Chalcedon first attempted to establish a dissenting anti-Chalcedonian ecclesiastical hierarchy. The monk Peter the Iberian in particular was a key force in this project because of his high-level political connections to the members of the imperial court in Constantinople. The beginnings of anti-Chalcedonian history in Palestine constitute the fist tangible manifestation of the schism between the adherents and opponents of the Council of Chalcedon a schism which endures until today. This study also offers a further contribution in the field work carried out on site in the Middle East which traced the footsteps of Peter the Iberian and his followers into the regions of modern Israel Palestine Jordan Lebanon Turkey and Sinai/Egypt.'

200890778<p><em><strong>Manuel Panselinos - From the Holy Church of Protaton</strong></em></p><p>In Greek. Second edition. Clothbound 31x25 cm 312 pp. rich illustration. ISBN: 960-87150-1-6.</p><p>The life of Manuel Panselenos the great Byzantine painter of Protaton church at Karyes Mount Athos is between myth and reality. He lived in 14th century a time of conflict where while the state's political and economic power declines letters and arts reach the highest point of glory yet drawing elements from the ancient Greek tradition. His work as it survives in Protaton is representative of the whole Paleologean era and of the so-called Macedonian "school" of hagiography whose center was the city of Thessalonike. The intellectual and artistic life of the city reaches that time at high levels whith a leading role in the entire Balkan area. The work of Panselenos has a rare quality in the performance of color organic body composition and psychological performance forms all of which add to the style of a drama inherent in realistic tones. The serene grandeur that emits as a whole in harmony with large proportions of the architectural and figured compositions with the robust figures of people vibrate a deep human passion which invites the viewer to sympathize with the feelings they emit.</p><p>Ο Μανουήλ ΠανσÎληνος ο ζωγÏάφος του Î Ïωτάτου κινείται ως τις μÎÏες μας Î¼ÎµÏ„Î±Î¾Ï Î¼Ïθου και Ï€Ïαγματικότητας. Η εποχή που δÏαστηÏιοποιείται 14ος αιώνας είναι εποχή αντινομίας κατά την οποία ενώ το κÏάτος φθίνει πολιτικά και οικονομικά τα γÏάμματα και οι Ï„Îχνες φθάνουν στο Ïψιστο σημείο της ακμής του αντλώντας συνάμα στοιχεία από την αÏχαιοελληνική παÏάδοση. Το ÎÏγο του Πανσελήνου όπως αυτό σώζεται στο Î Ïωτάτο είναι αντιπÏοσωπευτικό μιας ολόκληÏης εποχής της Παλαιολόγειας και μιας "Σχολής" της Μακεδονικής κÎντÏο της οποίας ήταν η Θεσσαλονίκη. Η πνευματική και καλλιτεχνική ζωή της πόλης φθάνει την πεÏίοδο εκείνη σε υψηλά επίπεδα ενώ ταυτόχÏονα αναδεικνÏεται ο ηγετικός Ïόλος της σε ολόκληÏο τον βαλκανικό χώÏο.

New English Original bdg. HC. Oblong 4to. (22 x 30 cm). In English and Romanian. 115, [140] p., fully color ills. Byzantine manuscripts in Bucharest's collections.= Manuscrise bizantine în colectii bucurestene. Project coordinator: Ileana Stanculescu. From the first article: "From the photographs taken over time, we chose those which best capture a special artistic quality with their strictly documentary value. This selection of manuscripts ends before the dawn of the 16th century, given the common view that after the fall of Constantinople (1453) we can no longer speak of a truly Byzantine culture, but only of a Byzantine style, albeit one which continued to shine. The selection of images was also intended to emphasize not only the aesthetics of the illuminated folios, but also those details that are significant for the codices as a whole, things which would dryly translate today as typeface font type, page layout and binding. Far from the sight of all interested parties, the Byzantine manuscripts in the Bucharest repositories are still full of mysteries waiting to be discovered and explained by researchers. We present these images here to provide a platform for a wider discussion of the significance of the Byzantine legacy for Romanian pre-modern culture. For the identification and description of the items chosen we used several catalogues, either manuscript or in print, which we then compared with the corresponding labels used by the repositories. The bibliography at the end of the volume indicates the various catalogues used for each collection. We found a wealth of details pertaining to the manuscript collections of the Romanian Patriarchy in the album published by the archimandrite Policarp. This is an excellent occasion to thank the specialists involved in the inventory of the collection for the additional information they supplied. We extend our warmest gratitude to them.Here and there we updated and corrected the information found in the aforementioned sources in the light of recent research: the dating of ms. sl. II 280, from the Library of the Holy Synod of the Romanian Orthodox Church at the Antim Monastery. We thank Mrs Tatiana Popova (University of St. Petersburg in Severodvinsk), for the observation that we are dealing with a direct copy, made at the end of the 14th century, of the Russian metropolitan Kyprian's reworking (dated 1385) of the Ladder of John Climax. Ms. sl. II 280 belongs to a group of manuscripts kept at Antim Monastery, but originates from a collection in Slava Rusa, a settlement in Dobrogea and a known...".
