| Summary: | This article offers an edition and translation of an unpublished text on the protomartyr Stephen, the first Christian martyr and deacon. It is an Arabic homily ascribed to John Chrysostom, translated from a Greek original (BHG 1664) and transmitted in the manuscript Sinai Arabic 409. Presenting an overview of the pieces of Stephen’s hagiographical dossier, and more particularly of the Arabic texts, the article then proposes an edition and a commented translation of this pseudo-Chrysostomian homily. Particular attention is paid to the orthographic, morphological and syntactic singularities of this text, which falls within the register of Middle Arabic. Useful comparisons with the Greek version, edited in the nineteenth century by A. Papadopoulos-Kerameus, also shed light on several difficult turns of phrase of the Arabic text. |
