演講摘要:
The Panoplia Dogmatike (Dogmatic armory or weaponry) was compiled by Euthymios Zigabenos of Constantinople in the 11th-12th Century. It was the first in a series of projects that, produced in Byzantium’s Comnenian dynasty, represented the genre of Byzantine literature that attacked heresy (especially Islam) of the time.The purpose of its compilation was not just to respond to contemporary debates on doctrinal orthodoxy, but also to bring together a collection of texts written by the Church Fathers of early Christianity for religious references. This paper elucidates the significance of the Panoplia literature that was made available to us by later edition and publications.
