Law Dissertation on Evergetidos and Kecharitomene Monastic Foundation Documents
Summary:
Among the many types of sources for the history of Byzantine monasticism, the
«typika», or foundation documents,are the most important and will facilitate into
the comprehensive study of religious life and institutions in the East Roman Empire.
Each typikon was normally written for a specific monastery and its dependencies and
reflected the ideas and wishes of the writer. They were flexible and personal
documents, which differed considerably in form, length, and content.In this study we
examine the «Typikon of Timothy for the Monastery of the Mother of God
Evergetis»,and the «Typikon of Empress Irene Doukaina Komnene for the Convent
of the Mother of God Kecharitomene in Constantinople» and the relations between
them in the light of legal culture of the east Roman Empire.
We also examine issues which include matters about the legal pluralism in the east
Roman Empire.Throughout this study,we mention «Novellae constitutiones» and
also Canons of the Ecumenical Councils which will enable in
getting a thorough grasp of the subject.
