Abstract

This article is dedicated to a kanon and four stichera for the Second Council of Nicaea (787), attributed by codex Vind. theol. gr. 187 (c. an. 1500) to (Theodoros?) Stoudites. Although these hymnographic texts were published for the first time in 1992—on the basis of the Viennese codex, alongside a Church Slavonic translation of earlier date than this Greek witness—, they have attracted scarcely any attention in the scholarship on Theodore the Stoudite. The present article offers a new edition of the texts, based, in addition to Vind. theol. gr. 187, on two other Greek manuscript witnesses. The edition is accompanied by an English translation and by an analysis of the hymns’ particularities of content and form, with a special focus on their theological and philosophical concepts regarding the veneration of icons, and on the question of their authorship.
