Philes was the most important and most prolific poet of the final 300 years of the Byzantine em- pire; yetthe greater part of his oeuvrestill languishes in outdated and uncritical editions from the 19th century.¹ There are even some poems that are still unedited Idearly thankAndreas Rhoby, MarcLauxtermann and Nathanael Aschenbrenner fortheir com- ments on earlier drafts of thispaper.Iam also grateful to ZacharyRothstein-Dowden whose help withmyEnglish translations by far exceeded alanguageproof.They all saved me from some blatant errors.Mythanksare extended to the two anonymous reviewerswhose sugges- tions greatly improved the quality of thispaper.Itgoeswithout saying that all remaining mis- takesare my own. Thisarticle waswritten as part of the project: “Late Byzantine Poetry from the Fourth Crusade until the End of the Empire”,funded by the Austrian Science Fund (FWF project no. T–G). After long years of neglect,Manuel Philes has latelybegun to arouse moreinterest.Cf. most recentlyK.Kubina.

Among these are some religious epigrams, the main part of his metaphrasis of the psalms² and anumberof poems addressed to friends and patrons.Thisarticle aims to rectify this absence of scholarlyeditions of his works by providingacritical edition of the latter group – the poems to patrons and friends – together with atranslation and a short commentary.³ These poems show how Philes used his poetic craft in order to establish and secure his social standingand how he positionedhimself as asocial actor:asasuppliant,friend, correspondent,and advocate. Philes maintained contact with manyhighrankingmembers of Byzantine society.Fromhis extant works,about 150 donorsand addressees can be identi- fied by name. Among those he addressed, we find emperors (Andronikos II, An- dronikos III and the co-emperor Michael IX), the patriarch Niphon I, high-rank- ing bureaucratslike the protostrator Michael Tarchaneiotes and his wife, the tax official Theodoros Patrikiotes,the cleric and historian Nikephoros Kallistu Xan- monographs have been published on Philes, namelyE.Braounou-Pietsch,Beseelte Bilder.Ep- igramme des Manuel Philes aufbildliche Darstellungen.

P is most likelythe original poem, whereas the text transmitted in Visanexcerpt.Inverse the scribe confused twodistinct verses and mergedthem into one – acommon scribal error.Furthermore, the reading ἐξ ἁφῆς in P. should be preferredover τῷ χρυσῷ as the former is better fitted to the metaphor of heat.The last line in Visadded as an end to the text thus producinganalone standingpoem.

Forthese figures he wrote poems on commission,⁴ such as epigrams (i.e., metrical inscriptions), but he also addressed them di- rectlyinhis numerous verse letters.⁵ These letters have largely been neglected in scholarship mainlyinfavour of his epigrams, but internal markers as well as theircontent identify these poems as letters.Philes’ surviving corpus includes about 320such poems which give witness to the wide epistolary network that Philes possessed, and how versifying remained the medium through which he operated thatnetwork. Thepoems edited beloware,inall likelihood,verse letters. As such,they largelyshare thethemes, rhetorical practices andfunctions with theirprose coun- terparts writtenbyother 14th-century intellextuals. Themain difference between them is theform: whileprose letterswereoften rhythmical in language,these let- ters arewritten in verse, mostly dodecasyllable. Lettersbothinprose andinverse arethusbothpiecesofart andameansofcommunication.Poem1forms an ad- dresstothe emperorAndronikosIIrequestingthatthe author be savedfromhis misery andhis creditors.

    THE EARLY PALAIOLOGAN COURT (1261-1354) by FROUKE MARIANNE SCHRIJVER A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Institute of Archaeology and Antiquity College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham September 2012 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

ABSTRACT The complex phenomena ‘court’ and ‘court society’ have received increasing interest in academic research over recent years. The court of late Byzantium, however, has been overlooked, despite the fact that assumptions have been made about the influence of Byzantine court ceremonial on ceremonies in the late Medieval and Early Modern West and about the imitation of the Byzantine court as an institution in the early Ottoman empire. In the discussion of these influences late Byzantine sources were left untouched, a neglect that underlines the need for a comprehensive study of the court in this period. The aim of the present thesis is to fill a part of this gap in our knowledge through an examination of the core of the court in early Palaiologan Byzantium (1261-1354).

  • John Tzetzes and the Blemish Examiners: a Byzantine Teacher on Schedography, Everyday Language and Writerly Disposition
    John Tzetzes and the blemish examiners: a Byzantine teacher on schedography, everyday language and writerly disposition Defining the relation between learned and vernacular literature still remains an important issue concerning the overall study of Byzantine literature. Since the mid- dle of the nineteenth century these two linguistic and literary areas were more or less viewed as being separate entities catering to the needs and expressing the ide- ologies of different strata of Byzantine society, high (written and Byzantine) in the case of learned literature and low (oral and Neohellenic) in the case of vernacular literature.1 This division had a great impact on the study of late Byzantine and early Modern Greek literature, especially in the way in which the socio-cultural environ- ment of these two literatures was perceived and how the master narratives for their respective histories were gradually created up to the middle of the twentieth centu- ry.2 Though much work has been done in editing and interpreting learned and ver- nacular texts, and even though voices have been raised against the division of these two domains,3 the overall impression from publications of the last twenty years is that most Byzantinists prefer to deal with learned texts, leaving the vernacular ma- terial to Neohellenists, while the latter on the whole avoid to study in depth materi- al before the fifteenth century.4 The research for the present paper was conducted in June-July 2012 at the Institut für Byzanti- nistik (Universität München) and in September 2016 at the Institut für Altertumskunde (Uni- versität Köln) with fellowships from the Alexander-von-Humboldt Stiftung (Bonn).

HILSDALE of the global turn in art history, scholars redirect attention from if, as ParT 1 “roots” to “routes,” then manuscript studies—as traditionally defined—might be in trouble. Conventional approaches have focused on the former, tracing recension schemas in an attempt to recreate the pictorial programs of lost archetypes from later copies, charting lines of pictorial “influence.” Individual manuscripts, accord- ing to this line of thought, are valued primarily2 as “witnesses” to lost originals as part of an always- elusive recuperative agenda. 3 While many scholars have offered cogent critiques of this genealogical method, the quest for origins still looms large, especially for manuscript traditions that span multiple cultural contexts. The shortcomings of this method are thrown into especially sharp contrast by Barlaam and Ioasaph the corpus of manuscripts that form the core of this essay: the illustrated Greek copies of , a high- drama edifying tale based loosely on the life of the Buddha and translated into a staggering number of languages from around the medieval and early modern world. Specialized studies have attended to individual recension programs and modes4 of translation, while cross-cultural overviews showcase the tale’s wide currency.
