| Summary: | The following study adds to existing research based on the writings attributed to Nicholas III the Grammarian, Patriarch of Constantinople. The studies that pertain to Patriarch Nicholas are almost nonexistent in the ecclesiastical literature. The only direct references available are in the Byzantine canonical collections as well as in the research conducted by canonists Nikodim Milash and Venance Grumel, appended with my own investigation into the supplementary canons of the patriarchs of Constantinople, as published in Romanian in 2010. This present study provides a historical and canonical analysis of Patriarch Nicholas’ canons, emphasizing their canonical and liturgical value. Therefore, while defining the pertinent terminology, the study unfolds with a general analysis of the canonical writings of patriarch Nicholas, with a concentration on the canons of the Byzantine canonical collections. The aim of this study is to examine their authenticity, characteristics, and their importance to both orthodox and Catholic eastern canon law. This literature is complete with a more literal translation of these canons from their original Greek into English. |
