Abstract
The article, written in Greek, is an edition of a hitherto unpublished short prayer composed by Emperor Manuel II Palaeologus (1391-1425), during his sojourn in the West (1400-1403). The prayer is transmitted in two extant manuscripts: Par. gr. 3041, copied by the imperial scribe Theophylaktos Basilikos, and Barb. gr. 219, copied by an anonymous hand that copied also other works for the Emperor. The introduction to the edition is written in the form of a fictitious dialogue between Manuel and Theophylaktos, though based on attested historical evidence.
Translated title of the contribution | Manuel II Palaeologus' "Prayer to those who are stormtossed or are simply at sea composed from David's Book of Psalms". |
