Abstract

Abstract This paper aims at reconsidering traditional data available for the figure of the hieromonk Stephen the Athenian, purported to be the author of a biographical compilation about famous monks of Mt Athos and of a biography of the Byzantine theologian Nicholas of Methone, published by the Greek forger Costantinos Simonides at the end of the 19th century. The main source for Stephen the Athenian is provided by a lemma of a biographical encyclopedia written by the Phanariot scholar Demetrius Procopius of Moschoupolis (with the title Succincta eruditorum Graecorum superioris et praesentis saeculi recensio) and published in 1722 by Johann Albert Fabricius at the end of the 11th volume of his Bibliotheca Graeca. The employment of a philological analysis to the extant sources of “Stephen” shows that the figure is indeed to be considered the mere result of the distortion created by Simonides from a lexicographical lemma.
一个扭曲的引理:ΣτεφάκηςἈθηναῖοςἱερομόναχοςMethone尼古拉斯和虚假的传记
摘要:本文旨在重新考虑关于雅典人斯蒂芬的传统资料,他被认为是阿陀斯山著名僧侣传记汇编和拜占庭神学家尼古拉斯的传记的作者,由希腊伪造者康斯坦丁诺斯·西蒙尼德斯在19世纪末出版。《雅典人斯蒂芬》的主要来源是一本传记百科全书的引理,这本百科全书是由莫斯科波利斯的法纳略学者德米特里乌斯·普罗科匹厄斯(Demetrius Procopius)撰写的(标题为《简明百科全书》(Succincta eruditorum Graecorum superioris et praesentis saeculi recensio), 1722年由约翰·阿尔伯特·法布里修斯(Johann Albert Fabricius)在他的《希腊文献》(Bibliotheca Graeca)第11卷的末尾出版的。对现存“斯蒂芬”来源的语言学分析表明,这个数字确实被认为是西蒙尼德斯从词典引理中产生的扭曲的纯粹结果。
