Description
This volume offers a critical edition and translation of Jacob of
Serugh's Homily on the Apostle Thomas and the Resurrection of Our
Lord that focuses on John 20:19-28. The introduction describes the
twenty-nine manuscripts that preserve the homily, details the
construction of a stemma, presents case studies of editorial decisions
based on neo-Lachmannian principles, and explains the systems of
punctuation, orthography, and diacritical points. It also draws
attention to the reception of the homily by attending to the producers
and users of the manuscripts as well as the homily's transmission in
exegetical, liturgical, and hagiographical collections. The apparatus
and appendices highlight paratextual marginalia, excerpts of the homily
in the Syriac "Masora," the incorporation of the homily into a
liturgical rite, additions to the homily, and section divisions in
manuscript witnesses. Overall, the volume seeks to navigate between
employing a neo-Lachmannian editorial praxis and addressing the
interests of material philology.
