Patristic Comments on the “Climax” of Saint John Climacus - Offer ot the manuscript of the Gennadeios Library KYRIAZI 15
Summary:
This Master thesis has the title: Patristic comments on the Ladder of St. John the Sinaïte – The contribution of the manuscript Gennadius Library Kyriazi 15.
My thesis deals with this great spiritual work of the Orthodoxe spirituality, written by this important spiritual father of the desert of Sinaï in the 7th century. Due to its great popularity, this work is saved in many -many manuscripts, some of them with patristic comments. The comments were published for the first and last time in the Patrologia Graeca, t. 88 in 1860.
In the introduction of my Master man can find informations on the comments as a literal kind in the texts of the classical Antiquity, in the Bible and in the Patristic Texts. Then follows a description of the manuscript Kyriazi 15 and the comparison between the form of the comments in the PG and in the manuscript. The Manuscript excels in the number of comments, it is richer, and in the literary quality of the comments, it is better.
In the second part of my thesis man can find the transcription on all the comments of the manuscript Kyriazi 15 and, finally, the vocabulary of the Greek words, necessary for the comprehension of the Ladder’s comments.
