Latin Christians in the Literary Landscape of Early Rus, C. 988–1330 Latin Christians in the Literary Landscape of Early Rus, c. 988–1330 Catherine Philippa Sykes Newnham College, University of Cambridge October 2017 This dissertation is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. ii Name: Catherine Sykes Title: Latin Christians in the Literary Landscape of Early Rus, c. 988–1330 Summary: In the wake of the recent wave of interest in the ties between Early Rus and the Latin world, this dissertation investigates conceptions and depictions of Latin Christians in Early Rusian texts. Unlike previous smaller-scale studies, the present study takes into consideration all indigenous Early Rusian narrative sources which make reference to Latins or the Latin world. Its contribution is twofold. Firstly, it overturns the still prevalent assumption that Early Rusian writers tended to portray Latins as religious Others. There was certainly a place in Early Rusian writing for religious polemic against the Latin faith, but as I show, this place was very restricted. Secondly, having established the considerable diversity and complexity of rhetorical approaches to Latins, this study analyses and explains rhetorical patterns in Early Rusian portrayals of Latins and Latin Christendom. Scholars have tended to interpret these patterns as primarily influenced by extra-textual factors (most often, a text’s time of composition). This study, however, establishes that textual factors—specifically genre and theme—are the best predictors of a text’s portrayal of Latins, and explains the appearance and evolution of particular generic and thematic representations. It also demonstrates that a text’s place of composition tends to have a greater influence on its depictions of Latins than its time of composition. Through close engagement with the subtleties and ambiguities of Early Rusian depictions of Latins, this study furthers contemporary debate on questions of narrative, identity and difference in Rus and the medieval world. iii This dissertation is the result of my own work and includes nothing which is the outcome of work done in collaboration. It is not substantially the same as any that I have submitted, or, is being concurrently submitted for a degree or diploma or other qualification at the University of Cambridge or any other University or similar institution. I further state that no substantial part of my dissertation has already been submitted, or, is being concurrently submitted for any such degree, diploma or other qualification at the University of Cambridge or any other University or similar institution. It does not exceed the prescribed word limit for the relevant Degree Committee. iv Acknowledgements First and foremost, I would like to express my gratitude to my supervisor, Professor Simon Franklin, for his unfailing insight, generosity and interest in my work. Thanks are also due to my family and friends, especially to Anne Sykes for proofreading; to David Turner for his support; and to my fellow Cambridge graduate medievalists for their companionship. Finally, I would like to thank the Centre for East European Language-Based Area Studies (CEELBAS) for generously funding my doctoral research. v Contents Note on Transliteration and Orthography ......................................................................................... 1 Introduction ........................................................................................................................................... 2 Rus, Latins and the ‘confessional border’ .......................................................................................................... 3 Interpreting texts and contexts ........................................................................................................................... 9 Who are the Latins? ......................................................................................................................................... 13 The scope of the thesis ...................................................................................................................................... 17 Time ............................................................................................................................................................. 17 Place ............................................................................................................................................................. 19 Texts ............................................................................................................................................................ 19 Themes ......................................................................................................................................................... 21 Outline of the thesis .......................................................................................................................................... 22 Chapter One: The Place of Anti-Latin Polemic in the Writing of Early Rus ................................ 25 Sources ............................................................................................................................................................. 27 Lists and epistles .......................................................................................................................................... 28 Erotapokriseis .............................................................................................................................................. 29 Byzantine polemic or Rusian polemic?

On to poprowadził swą politykę w kierunku stworzenia dużego 1 Béla IV Wielki urodził się w listopadzie 1206 r. na zamku w Pożoniu (dzisiejsza Bratysława) jako pierworodny syn króla Węgier Andrzeja II i jego pierwszej żony, Gertrudy Andechs-Meranien. W 1213 r. jego matka została zamordowana. Ojciec próbował pomścić żonę i zabić jej mordercę, jed- nak mu się to nie powiodło, więc obowiązek pomszczenia królowej Gertrudy spoczął na Béli, który dopełnił aktu zemsty w 1236 r. Po śmierci ojca w 1235 r. Béla IV w wieku 29 lat został koronowany na króla Węgier. Próbował umocnić osłabioną za czasów Andrzeja II władzę królewską. Kiedy w 1238 r. na Węgry schroniło się za zgodą Béli IV zbiegłe przed Tatarami plemię Kumanów (Połowców), stwo- rzył sojusz z tym szczepem i rozkazał mu przyjęcie chrześcijaństwa. Toczył wojny z Tatarami. Jako władca sprowadził na Węgry kartuzów i franciszkanów. Wspierał misje przedsięwzięte przez domi- nikanów. Po zakończeniu wojny z Tatarami Béla IV prowadził jeszcze dwie wojny. W 1242 r. popadł w konflikt z austriackim księciem Fryderykiem II. Wojna Węgier z Babenbergami, którą Béla roz- strzygnął w zwycięskiej bitwie pod Litawą, trwała do 1246 r. Wówczas Béla odzyskał zajęte przez Austrię tereny węgierskie.

  • Prefatory Materials of the King James Bible
    THE PREFATORY MATERIALS OF THE KING JAMES BIBLE Ý The Translators’ Dedication to King James and their Addresss to the Reader in the King James Bible. 1611 By Matthew Verschuur The Prefatory Materials of the King James Bible First published 2010 Copyright Matthew Verschuur This material has been produced for personal study, ministry teaching and Christian educational purposes. Bible Protector www.bibleprotector.com ¶ Introduction This work was written around 2003/2004. It was later condensed significantly and formed part of the Guide to the Pure Cambridge Edition. It is an initial treatment and attempt to understand the teachings and the references of the King James Bible translators’ scholarship. Since this work was analytical and notational in nature, and represented initial investigations into these details, it must contain various crudities and incomplete assessments. Thus, it must be stressed that this is only a novice study. As the King James Bible went to the press in 1611, a dedication was written by Thomas Bilson, and an admonition to the reader was written by Miles Smith. These two works in combination show the intention of the translators in their work, and explain various principles in their labouring to present of the Word of God. These two works are called “The Epistle Dedicatory” and “The Translators to the Reader”. This work treats both these statements. § I. Notes on The Epistle Dedicatory ¶ 1. Overview of The Epistle Dedicatory The Dedication was written by the 1611 translator, Thomas Bilson. It appeared in the 1611 Edition, and has been retained in Cambridge Bibles ever since. A full and proper Cambridge copy of The Epistle Dedicatory (TED) has been supplied, mainly because of slight differences that can be observed in it in different King James Bibles.

  • “Let Us Keep the Feast:” Some Perspectives on the Form and Symbolism of the Eucharistic Bread in the Early and Medieval West
    MELITA THEOLOGICA Nicholas Paxton* Journal of the Faculty of Theology University of Malta 68/2 (2018): 159-172 “Let us Keep the Feast:” Some Perspectives on the Form and Symbolism of the Eucharistic Bread in the Early and Medieval West The Early Form of the Eucharistic Bread o begin with, we should clarify the form of the Eucharistic bread before the TWestern resumption of unleavened bread (azymes). The use ofartos instead of azyma in the four New Testament accounts of the Last Supper probably tells us that the type of bread used was not considered sufficiently important to merit specification, although Andrew McGowan believes that such a use “might reflect the assimilation of the institution narratives to meal practices of a more everyday nature… or may conversely be a remnant of a non-paschal tradition embedded in the Gospel accounts”1 – even though any such tradition, if it existed, would have been superseded well before the end of the first Christian century. Thus, leavened bread was considered acceptable for Eucharistic use. For example, in a work sometimes attributed to Ambrose but perhaps from the early fifth century we have the statement meus panis est usitatus (“my bread is the usual sort”),2 while the consecrated fermentum particle about which Innocent I wrote to Decentius, * Nicholas Paxton, formerly an Associate Chaplain at the University of Salford, England, works for the Salford Diocesan Archives and undertakes pastoral work in neighbouring Manchester.

  • “Description of Kiev-Pechersk Lavra” by Metropolitan Yevhenii
    Godišnjak 18 (2019) 105-1 * 1 Original Research UDK 271.2-9(470):27-1(470)(091) DOI 10.7251/CPBFSVO2019105B Boichura Maksym COBISS.RS-ID 133143553 Kiev Theological Academy “Description of Kiev-Pechersk Lavra” by Metropolitan Yevhenii (Bolkhovitinov) as an Attempt to Continue “Mohylian Tradition” in Describing the History of Kiev Summary: The purpose of this paper is to determine the main elements of the writings of his­ tory of Kiev by the Metropolitan of Kiev Petro (Mohyla) (1597–1647) and other theologians under his scientific supervision; consideration of the reception of these elements in the work of Metropolitan of Kiev Yevhenii (Bolkhovitinov) (1767–1837) under the title “Description of the Kiev­Pechersk Lavra”, as well as finding the elements that are strictly characteristic of Metropolitan Yevhenii’s work. The methodological basis of this article is the general scientific principle of historicism, objectivity, complexity and system, the implementation of which is car­ ried out through the use of basic methods of historical research (analysis and synthesis, induction and deduction). The main conclusion is that Metropolitan of Kiev Yevhenii (Bolkhovitinov) was the successor of the tradition of writing history of the Church which was created by Metropolitan Petro (Mohyla) and other famous Kievan theologians of the time, among whom Bishop Sylvestr (Cossov) stands out. Key words: Mohylian tradition, Kiev­Pechersk Lavra, Pechersk saints, Petericon, Stauropegion. In spite of the fact that many studies, including monographs, have been devoted to the life and activities of these two Kievan metropolitans, the question of the conti­ nuity of “the tradition of writing history” of the city of Kiev, created by Metropolitan Petro (Mohyla), has not been explored at all in Ukrainian and Russian historiography.
