Angelo Clareno traducteur d'une lettre de Jean Chrysostome
PROJECT TRANSMAR ” Angelo Clareno (ca. 1260-1337) as a marginal Translator of the Greek Fathers : Circulation of Texts and People in Europe before Humanism” HORIZON-MSCA-2022-PF-01 101105680 Among the letters long attributed to John Chrysostom, several are inauthentic, including Letter 125, also known as the Letter to Cyriacus. Angelo Clareno was the first to produce a Latin version of this text, based on a manuscript from the Italo-Greek abbey of Grottaferrata. This translation, whose earliest witnesses are preserved alongside the Scala Paradisi corpus of John Climacus, achieved notable success, particularly in German and Slavic regions. To date, twenty-six complete manuscripts and two fragmentary ones have been identified. For this translation, a reference sheet is provided, detailing the identification of the Greek text (author, title, CPG number, links to the PINAKES Greek manuscripts database); the details of the Greek manuscript used for the translation; the list of Latin manuscript witnesses, organized by major families (i, d, b); the Latin titles, incipit and explicit; the date and place of the translation and a brief bibliography. https://journals.openedition.org/oliviana/1673
