  • Contested Authenticity Anthropological Perspectives of Pilgrimage Tourism on Mount Athos
    religions Article Contested Authenticity Anthropological Perspectives of Pilgrimage Tourism on Mount Athos Michelangelo Paganopoulos Global Inquiries and Social Theory Research Group, Faculty of Social Sciences and Humanities, Ton Duc Thang University, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam; [email protected] Abstract: This paper investigates the evolution of customer service in the pilgrimage tourist industry, focusing on Mount Athos. In doing so, it empirically deconstructs the dialectics of the synthesis of “authentic experience” between “pilgrims” and “tourists” via a set of internal and external reciprocal exchanges that take place between monks and visitors in two rival neighboring monasteries. The paper shows how the traditional value of hospitality is being reinvented and reappropriated according to the personalized needs of the market of faith. In this context, the paper shows how traditional monastic roles, such as those of the guest-master and the sacristan, have been reinvented, along with traditional practices such as that of confession, within the wider turn to relational subjectivity and interest in spirituality. Following this, the material illustrates how counter claims to “authenticity” emerge as an arena of reinvention and contestation out of the competition between rival groups of monks and their followers, arguing that pilgrimage on Athos requires from visitors their full commitment and active involvement in their role as “pilgrims”. The claim to “authenticity” is a matter of identity and the means through which a visitor is transformed from a passive “tourist” to Citation: Paganopoulos, an active “pilgrim”. Michelangelo. 2021.

  • HYMNS, HOMILIES and HERMENEUTICS in BYZANTIUM Abstracts
    HYMNS, HOMILIES AND HERMENEUTICS IN BYZANTIUM Abstracts John Damascene on the Transfiguration of the Lord: Mystical Homiletic Performance and Eschatological Hermeneutics Dr Vassilis Adrahtas (University of New South Wales) John Damascene’s oeuvre is generally seen as scholastic and rationalistic, and thus devoid of mysticism and eschatological fervour. However, this assertion is rather sweeping and does not do justice to the comprehensiveness, complexity and subtlety of John Damascene's theologising. On the basis of his homily On the Transfiguration of the Lord, the present paper will attempt to show that John Damascene did work through established mystical tropes and was indeed driven by an eschatological consciousness. In particular, it will be shown that this specific homily is articulated as a dramatised performance that mystically presents Jesus’ (historical) past in light of the experiencing of his (meta-historical) future. As a result, the homily in question is thoroughly informed by an eschatological hermeneutics, which apart from utilising traditional modes of biblical interpretation ultimately puts forward a mysticism of action and an iconic eschatology of being truly human. The Eye of the Soul in Plato and pseudo-Macarius: Alexandrian Theology and the Roots of Hesychasm A/Professor Eva Anagnostou-Laoutides (Macquarie University) Although the mystical tradition of Hesychasm is typically associated with Gregory Palamas and his fourteenth century dispute with Barlaam of Calabria (Meyendorff 1983: 6-8; Ware 1986: 249; Healey 1999: 227-8), its historical evolution in the writings of earlier writers such as Evagrius Ponticus (345-399; Ware 1986: 177), pseudo-Dionysius Areopagite (5th- 6th century; Russell 2004: 258; Perl 2007: 68); Maximus the Confessor (c.

  • July Menaion
    Byzantine Monthly Menaion Volume Eleven: July Metropolitan Cantor Institute Byzantine Catholic Seminary Pittsburgh, PA Foreword A Menaion is a liturgical book which contains the changeable parts of Byzantine divine services for a given month. The volume in your hands is the tenth of a series of twelve books for use in Byzantine Catholic parishes. Each day is provided with the following material: (1) Synaxarion (brief life of the saints remembered) (2) Troparia and Kontakia (3) Prokeimena and Alleluiaria (4) Communion Hymn. On major feasts, the proper antiphons (when there are any) and the Magnification and Irmos (appointed to take the place of It is truly proper) are also included. Texts which are contained in the Faithful’s Book published by the Byzantine Catholic Church are reproduced with their musical settings from that book. Those texts were translated by the Inter-Eparchial Liturgical Commission, and then set to plainchant by the Inter-Eparchial Music Commission. Many of the Troparia contained in this volume of the Menaion are, in fact, common texts (i.e., they are used on more than one feast). These texts, too, come from the work of the IELC/IEMC, as are all the Prokeimena and Alleluiaria and Communion Hymns. The texts of the Troparia and Kontakia that are not from the above-mentioned source are almost always taken from the Order of Matins published by the Sisters of the Order of Saint Basil the Great, and we acknowledge these texts with gratitude. This volume is intended to be used annually. Because of this, cantors must use the Typikon of the Metropolitan Church to discern how materials from the Menaion are to be combined with the Sunday Ochtoechos.

  • Philosophical, Anthropological and Axiological Aspects of Constantine's Definition of Philosophy Ján Zozuľak1 Introduction
    Ethics & Bioethics (in Central Europe), 2021, 11 (1–2), 14–22 DOI:10.2478/ebce-2021-0002 Philosophical, anthropological and axiological aspects of Constantine’s definition of philosophy Ján Zozuľak1 Abstract This paper Focuses on the philosophical-ethical Foundations of Constantine’s definition of philosophy, as well as its anthropological and axiological aspects. The focus is placed on the relationship between definitions of philosophy postulated by Constantine the Philosopher and John of Damascus, the latter of which traces the six classical definitions systematized by Platonic commentators. Byzantine thinkers proposed a method of uniFying both the theoretical and practical aspects of ancient philosophy with a Christian way oF liFe by interpreting the classical definitions of philosophy and dividing it into theoretical and practical parts, the latter including ethics. Constantine understood philosophy in the sense oF the second (knowledge oF things Divine and human) and the fourth (becoming like God) meanings of earlier definitions, with the addition of the Christian sense oF acting in accordance with the image of God. In addition to these gnosiological and anthropological aspects, the paper also observes the axiological aspect of Constantine’s definition of philosophy, which appears to be a Foundation For exploring human behaviour as in compliance with Christian laws encouraging changes in ethical principles so as to follow a new code of ethics, through which new values were presented to the Slavs. Keywords: Constantine (Cyril), deFinition oF philosophy, image, likeness, Byzantine anthropology Introduction This paper analyses the philosophical, anthropological and axiological aspects of Constantine’s definition of philosophy and focuses on the selected ethical cornerstones of the Cyrillo- Methodian mission to the Slavic cultural space, to which Byzantine values cultivating human personality were being transferred through the works of the eponymous Constantine the Philosopher (Cyril) and Methodius.

  • Rome and Constantinople, Popes and Patriarchs, 1204-1453
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Empires Reshaped and Reimagined: Rome and Constantinople, Popes and Patriarchs, 1204-1453 A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in History by Natalie Sherwan 2016 © Copyright by Natalie Sherwan 2016 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Empires Reshaped and Reimagined: Rome and Constantinople, Popes and Patriarchs, 1204-1453 by Natalie Sherwan Doctor of Philosophy, History University of California, Los Angeles, 2016 Professor Patrick Geary, Co-chair Professor Claudia Rapp, Co-chair This dissertation discusses the politics of conquest and the strategies of legitimization pursued by Latin, Greek and Slav contenders for hegemonic rule in the northeastern Mediterranean after the collapse of the Byzantine Empire in the wake of the fourth crusade. It reevaluates the relationship between the concepts of empire and Christendom as played out in the process of political realignment, and closely examines the ways in which the key actors claiming to represent these concepts - emperors, popes, patriarchs - fought or cooperated with one another in order to assert regional preeminence. ii The first part of the dissertation focuses on the tension between the Roman/Byzantine ideal of universalism, which entailed a sole holder of imperial power, and the concrete reality of several empires coexisting within the same geographical area. Chapters one and two provide a survey of the main theoretical issues encountered in the study of medieval empires, and an assessment of the relationship between Byzantine basileis, patriarchs, popes and Western emperors prior to 1204. Chapters three and four investigate the competing but interconnected ruling systems which emerged in the Balkans, the Aegean and Asia Minor after 1204, tracing their policies of war and appeasement until the recovery of Constantinople by the Nicene Greeks in 1261.

It is impossible for any one to visit these districts without becoming interested in the local history. I trust that Byzantine scholars will pardon my invasion of their province. It is also probably worth noting that the list of aneedota hagiographica could be enormously increased by the con- sistent cataloguing of the lives of Saints in the various libraries other than the Laura ; for the extraordinary wealth of Mount Athos in this respect is obscured by the fact that the Cambridge catalogue of Lambros does not as a rule do more than record the month to which a volume of j3lol belongs. It is of course a help to know which MSS. have )3toi, but the really valuable work of cataloguing the contents has still to be done. The pleasant duty is once more laid on me of acknow- ledging my indebtedness to the Trustees of the Revision Surplus, the Hort and the Hibbert Funds.
