Description
Summary:"Oratio II contra Arianos is one of the three Orations that belong to Athanasius of Alexandria and represent his most famous theological work. Written originally in Greek between 339AD and 345AD and translated into Old Slavonic in 906AD by Constantine of Preslav, the Second Oration discusses the issue of Christ's relation to God the Father and the controversial passages of Scripture in the context of the fourth-century Arian dispute. This critical edition is the first one to offer the Old Slavonic version of the Second Oration based on all existing manuscripts. It also provides a Greek text and English translation prefaced by an introduction on the origin, history, and text of Athanasius' Orations in Slavonic." -- Academia page of Viacheslav Lytvynenko.
"Le Deuxième discours contre les ariens d'Athanase d'Alexandrie a été traduit en slavon par Constantin de Preslav au début du Xe siècle. Cette édition critique présente le texte sur la base des dix manuscrits connus, avec traduction anglaise accompagnée de la recension grecque publiée dans Migne, PG 26. Une longue introduction discute divers points, comme la transmission du texte, la relation entre les manuscrits et la question de la Vorlage." -- Provided by publisher.
