Abstract

This paper explores the account of a Greek lord, Michael Ducas of Epirus, crucifying the constable of the Latin Empire of Constantinople, Amedée Pofey. It argues that the account of this event in a papal letter has not received significant scrutiny, especially in relation to the unprecedented accusation of the crucifixion of one Christian against another. It explores the careers of the two figures at the center of the incident, and then builds a case against the veracity of the crucifixion claim by focusing on the frequent distortions in the letters of the Latin Emperor Henry I who is the source of this claim. It then explores a similar method of execution, the phourka, which may have been confused with or exaggerated into a crucifixion.  
十字军君士坦丁堡被钉死的巡抚?
本文探讨了希腊领主伊庇鲁斯的 Michael Ducas 将君士坦丁堡拉丁帝国的巡抚 Amedée Pofey 钉死在十字架上的故事。本文认为,教皇信函中对这一事件的描述并未得到认真审查,尤其是在将一名基督徒钉死在十字架上指控另一名基督徒这一史无前例的指控方面。该书探讨了事件中心的两位人物的职业生涯,然后通过重点分析作为这一指控来源的拉丁皇帝亨利一世的信件中经常出现的歪曲事实的情况,对钉死在十字架上的说法的真实性提出了质疑。然后探讨了一种类似的行刑方式--"phourka",这种方式可能被混淆或夸大为钉死在十字架上。
