Description
Summary:This article refutes K.F. Zawadzki's assumption that Cyril of Alexandria would have committed a kind of 'self-plagiarism' in hisby tacitly copying a so-called fragment of the fifth book of his (now lost) commentary, preserved in the Syriac ms.14529. Three main arguments are advanced against such an hypothesis: 1) The abridged version of the fragment strongly recalls the manner in which excerptors reformulated (and reused) texts of Cyril; 2) The plethora of quotations and the few self-quotes that Cyril himself inserts in hisare all explicitly identified as such; 3) The short phrases reproduced verbatim by Cyril in his writings cannot be regarded as hidden self-quotes. Therefore, one should conclude that this is not a case of Cyril plagiarizing himself, but a mere mistake for the aforementioned Syriac fragment is actually just an excerpt from Cyril's.
