Document Details : Title: The History of Agapius Revisited Author(s): RASHED, Mohamed A. Journal: Le Muséon Volume: 138 Issue: 3-4 Date: 2025 Pages: 381-426 DOI: 10.2143/MUS.138.3.3294918 Abstract : This contribution outlines an ongoing research project that aims to fill in part of the gap left by the absence of a critical edition and a dedicated critical study of the text of Agapius of Manbij. By exploring the textual witnesses of this work, preliminary remarks and new findings are brought to attention that contextualise our Syro-Arabic work within the milieu of Syriac studies. These findings are further pursued to shed new light on the enigmatic Eastern Common Source and argue for the survival of the presumed lost Chronicle of Theophilus of Edessa. |
