Document Details : Title: A Note on the Encomium on the Apostle John Attributed to Constantine Akropolites (BHG 932c) Author(s): KALTSOGIANNI, Eleni Journal: Byzantion Volume: 92 Date: 2022 Pages: 309-323 DOI: 10.2143/BYZ.92.0.3291255 Abstract : The article is concerned with the authorship of the encomium on the Apostle John (BHG 932c), usually attributed in the secondary literature to Constantine Akropolites. Based on internal evidence I suggest that the text should rather be ascribed to Constantines’ father, the historian George Akropolites. The comparison of the encomium with other genuine works of the latter offers further support to this assumption. |
