The Inedita Homily In transfigurationem Domini (BHGn 1980a): A compilation using Proclus of Constantinople


Radu Gârbacea

Abstract

In his inventory of the manuscript tradition of the homilies on the Transfiguration, Maurice Sachot stated that folios 46r–55r of the codex Parisinus  graecus 1611 contain the homily In transfigurationem Domini (BHGn 1980a). He also stated that this text is unedited and that it is most probably a  recension of the homily In transfigurationem Domini (CPG 5807; BHG 1980) attributed to Proclus of Constantinople. To date, however, this homily has  remained unpublished and unstudied. After a brief presentation of the codex Parisinus graecus 1611, this article brings to light a surprise that emerges  from examining folios 46r–55r of the Parisian manuscript.


Contribution: The article proves that the homily In transfigurationem Domini (BHGn 1980a) is not a recension of the homily on the Transfiguration (CPG 5807; BHG 1980), but a compilation for which the beginning of the homily on the  Transfiguration attributed to Proclus of Constantinople was used.
