- Title
On contents and structure of the Panagios Typikon: a contribution to the early history of 'extended' monastic rules.
- Authors
Krausmüller, Dirk
- Abstract
This article focuses on the lost Typikon of the Constantinopolitan monastery of Panagiou, which was composed in the first quarter of the eleventh century by the abbot Anthony, a former disciple of Athanasius the Athonite. The Panagiou Typikon is of crucial importance for a proper understanding of the Middle Byzantine monastic discourse since it is one of the earliest rules promoting a strictly coenobitic agenda. The article has two objectives: it seeks to recover some of the contents of the Panagiou Typikon through identification of textual parallels in a later adaptation, Gregory Pakourianos' Petritzos Typikon, and in Vita A of Athanasius the Athonite by the monk Athanasius of Panagiou; and it offers a partial reconstruction of its structure through comparison with the Typikon of Patriarch Alexius the Studite, which is based on a lost Typikon for the Stoudios monastery, and with the Evergetis Typikon and its derivatives.
