This piece subjoined, of the Bibliotheca was published by David Hoesche- with a Latin version, to the Nomocanon in the lius, under the title of Bi6X100ýÊη ToÛ Þwríov, Paris editions of 1615 and 1661, and often pubLibrorum quos legit Photius Patriarcha Excerpta et lished elsewhere, is really part of one of the EpisCensurae, fol. Augsburg, 1601. Some of the Epistolae of Photius, and is noticed in our account of tolae of Photius were subjoined. The text of the Bibliotheca was formed on a collation of four MSS., and was accompanied with notes by the editor; but there was no Latin version. A Latin version and scholia, by Andreas Schottus of Antwerp, were published, fol. Augsburg, 1606; but the version is inaccurate, and has been severely criticised. It was however reprinted, with the Greek text, under the title of Φωτίου Μυριόβιβλον ἢ Βιβλιοθήκη, Photii Myriobiblon sive Bibliotheca, fol. Geneva, 1612, and fol. Rouen, 1653. This last edition is a very splendid one, but inconvenient from its size. An edition, with a revised text, formed on a collation of four MSS. (whether any of them were the same as those employed by Hoeschelius is not mentioned) was published by Immanuel Bekker, 2 thin vols. 4to. Berlin, 1824-1825: it is convenient from its size and the copiousness of its index, but has neither version nor notes.

5. 'Erioтoral, Epistolae. There are extant a considerable number of the letters of Photius. The MSS. containing them are enumerated by Fabricius, Bibl. Graec. vol. xi. p. 11. It is much to be regretted that no complete collection of them has been published. David Hoeschelius subjoined to his edition of the Bibliotheca (fol. Augsburg, 1601) mentioned above, thirty-five letters selected from a MS. collection which had belonged to Maximus Margunius, bishop of Cerigo, who lived about the end of the sixteenth century. One consolatory letter to the nun Eusebia on her sister's death, was published by Conrad Rittershausius, with a Latin version, with some other pieces, 8vo. Nürnberg, 1601. But the largest collection is that prepared with a Latin version and notes by Richard Mountagu (Latinized Montacutius), bishop of Norwich, and published after his death, fol. London, 1651. The Greek text was from a MS. in the Bodleian library. The collection comprehends two hundred and forty-eight letters translated by the bishop, and a supplement of five letters brought from the East by Christianus Ravius, of which also a Latin version by another

It has been repeatedly published, with the commentaries of Theodore Balsamon, who strongly recommended it, in preference to similar works of an earlier date it appeared in the Latin version of Gentianus Hervetus, fol. Paris, 1561, and in another Latin version of Henricus Agylaeus, fol. Basel. 1561, and in the original Greek text with the version of Agylaeus, edited by Christophorus Justellus, 4to. Paris, 1615. It was reprinted, with the version of Agylaeus, in the Bibliotheca Juris Canonici, published by Guillelmus Voellus and Henricus Justellus, vol. ii. p. 785, &c. fol. Paris, 1661. The Nomocanon of Photius was epitomised in the kind of verses called politici [see PHILIPPUS, No. 27, note] by Michael Psellus, whose work was published, with one or two other of his pieces, by Franciscus Bosquetus, 8vo. Paris, 1632.

especially two to Pope Nicolaus I., and one to the archbishop or patriarch of Aquileia, on the proces sion of the Holy Spirit, of all which Baronius had given a Latin version in his Annales Ecclesiastici (ad ann. 859, lxi. &c., 861, xxxiv. &c., and 883, v. &c.). Fragments of the Greek text of the letters to Pope Nicolaus were cited by Allatius in different parts of his works; the original of the letter to the archbishop of Aquileia was published in the Auctarium Novissimum of Combéfis, pars i. p. 527, &c. (fol. Paris, 1672), with a new Latin version and notes by the editor; and the original of all the three letters, together with a previously unpublished letter, Ad Oeconomum Ecclesiae Antiochiae, and the encyclical letter on the procession of the Holy Spirit (included in Mountagu's collection), the Acta of the eighth oecumenical council (that held in 879,at which the second appointment of Photius to the patriarchate was ratified), and some other pieces, with notes by Dositheus, patriarch of Jerusalem, were published by Anthimus "Episcopus Remnicus," i. e. bishop of Rimnik, in Walachia, in

his Touos xapas. Fol. Rimnik, 1705. A letter, Ad Theophanem Monachum, i. e. to Theophanes Cerameus, with a Latin version by Sirmond, was published by the Jesuit Franciscus Scorsus, in his Prooemium Secundum, § 3, to the Homiliae of Cerameus, fol. Paris, 1644 [CERAMEUS, THEOPHANES], and another letter, Stauracio Spatharo-candidato, Praefecto insulae Cypri, was included in the Ecclesiae Graecae Monumenta of Cotelerius, vol. ii. p. 104, together with a short piece, Пepì тoù un δεῖν πρὸς τὰ ἐν τῷ βίῳ λυπηρὰ ἐπιστρέφεσθαι, Quod non oporteat ad praesentis vitae molestias attendere, which, though not bearing the form of a letter (perhaps it is a fragment of one), is in the Ms. classed with the Epistolae. A Latin version, from the Armenian, of some fragments of an Epistola Photü ad Zachariam Armeniae Patriarcham, in support of the doctrine of the Council of Chalcedon, is given in the Conciliatio Ecclesiae Armeniae cum Romana of Galanus, fol. Rom. 1650. To all these we may add the Epistola Tarasio Fratri, usually subjoined to the Bibliotheca. The Epistola ad Zuchariam, just mentioned, and another letter, Ad Principem Armenium Asutium, are extant in MS. in an Armenian version. (Comp. Mai, Seriptor. Veterum Nov. Collectio. Proleg. in vol. i. 4to. Rom. 1825.)

6. Aétewv ouvaywyń s. Aežikóv, Lexicon. Marquardus Gudius of Hamburg had an anonymous MS. lexicon, which he believed and asserted to be that of Photius; but the correctness of his opinion was first doubted by some, and is now given up by most scholars; and another lexicon, much shorter, and which is in the MSS. ascribed to Photius, is now admitted to be the genuine work of that eminent man. A writer in the Classical Journal (No. 54. p. 358) has indeed expressed his conviction that, "in the composition of it the patriarch never stirred a finger," and that it received his name merely from having been in his possession; but we are not aware that his opinion has found any Supporters. Of this Lexicon there exist several MSS., but that known as the Codex Galeanus, because given by Thomas Gale to the library of Trinity College, Cambridge, is considered to be the archetype from which the others have been transcribed; but this MS. is itself very imperfect, containing in fact not much more than half the original work. Nearly the whole of the Lexicon, known as the Lexicon Sangermunense, a portion of which was published in the Anecdota Graeca of Immanuel Bekker, vol. i. p. 319, &c. 8vo. Berlin, 1814, appears to have been incorporated in the Lexicon of Photius, of which, when entire, it is estimated to have formed a third part (Praefat. to Porson's edition). The Lexicon of Photius was first published, from Continental MSS., by Gothofredus Hermannus, 4to Leipzig, 1808. It formed the third volume of a set, of which the two first volumes contained the Lexicon ascribed to Joannes Zonaras [ZONARAS, JOANNES]. The publication of the Lexicon was followed by that of a Libellus Animadversionum ad Photii Lexicon, 4to. Leipzig, 1810, and Curae Novissimae sive Appendix Notarum et Emendationum in Photii Lexicon, 4to. Leipzig, 1812, both by Jo. Frid. Schleusner. But the edition of Hermann having failed to satisfy the wants of the learned, an edition from a transcript of the Codex Galeanus, made by Porson, was published after the death of that eminent scholar, 4to. and Evo. London, 1822. (Comp. Edinb, Rev. vol. xxi.

7 'Aupiλóxia, Amphilochia. This work, which Allatius, not a friendly censor, declared to be "a work filled with vast and varied learning, and very needful for theologians and expositors of Scripture,' is in the form of answers to certain questions, and is addressed to Amphilochus, archbishop of Cyzicus. The title is thus given in full by Montfaucon (Biblioth. Coislin. fol. Paris, 1715, p. 326): Tà Αμφιλόχια ἢ λόγων ἱερῶν καὶ ζητημάτων ἱερολογίαι πρὸς Ἀμφιλόχιον τὸν ὁσιώτατον μητροπολί την Κυζίκου ἐν τῷ καίρῳ τῶν πειρασμῶν, ζητημάτων διαφόρων εἰς ἀριθμὸν τριακοσίων συντει vóvTwv èñíλvoi altŋoáμevov, Amphilochia s. Sermones et Quaestiones Sacrae ad Amphilochium Metropolitam Cyzicenum in Tempore Tentationum; Quaestiones Variqe sunt Numero trecentae. The answers are said in one MS. (apud Fabric. Bibl. Graec. vol. xi. p. 26) to be two hundred and ninetyseven in number; but Montfaucon (l. c.) published an index of three hundred and eight, and a Vatican MS., according to Mai (Script. Vet. Nova Collectio, vol. i. proleg. p. xxxix.), contains three hundred and thirteen. Of these more than two hundred and twenty have been published, but in various fragmentary portions (Mai, l. c.). The first portion which appeared in print was in the Lectiones Antiquae of Canisius (4to. Ingolstadt, 1604, &c. vol. v. p. 188, &c.), who gave a Latin version by Franciscus Turrianus, of six of the Quaestiones; but the work to which they belonged was not mentioned. In the subsequent edition of the Lectiones by Basnage (4to. Amsterdam, 1725, vol. ii. pt. ii. p. 420, &c.), the Greek text of five of the six was added (the original of the sixth seems never to have been discovered), as well as the Greek text of a seventh Quaestio," De Christi Voluntatibus Gnomicis," of which a Latin version by Turrianus had been published in the Auctarium Antiquarum Canisii Lectionum of the Jesuit Petrus Stewartius, 4to. Ingolstadt, 1616; also without notice that it was from the Amphilochia. Further additions were made by Combéfis, in his SS. Patrum Amphilochii, &c. Opera, 2 vols. fol. Paris, 1644 (by a strange error he ascribed the work not to Photius, but to Amphilochius of Iconium, a much older writer, from whose works he supposed Photius had made a selection), and in his Novum Auctarium, 2 vols. fol. Paris, 1648; by Montfaucon, in his Bibliotheca Coisliniana, fol. Paris, 1715; and by Jo. Justus Spier, in Wittenbergischen Anmerkungen ueber theologische, philosophische, historische, philologische, und kritische Materien, part i. 8vo. Wittenberg, 1738 (Harles, Introd. in Historiam Linguae Graec. Supplem. vol. ii. p. 47). But the principal addition was made by Jo. Chr. Wolff, of forty-six Quaestiones, published, with a Latin version, in his Curae Philologicae, vol. v. ad fin. 4to. Hamb. 1735: these were reprinted in the Bibliotheca Patrum of Galland, vol. xiii. fol. Venice, 1779. A further portion of eighteen Quaestiones, under the title 'Ex Tv WTÍOV 'Aμpiλoxíwv Tiva, Ex Photii Amphilochiis quaedam, was published, with a Latin version, by Angelus Antonius Schottus, 4to. Naples, 1817; and some further portions, one of twenty Quaestiones, with a Latin version by Mai, in his Scriptorum Veterum Nova Collectio, vol. i. pp. 193, &c., and another of a hundred and thirty Quaestiones, in vol. ix. p. 1, &c. As many of the Quaestiones were mere extracts from the Epistolae and other published works of

Photius, Mai considers that with these and with the | portions published by him, the whole of the Amphilochia has now been published. He thinks (Scriptor. Vet. Nova Collect. vol. i. proleg. p. xl.) that the patriarch, toward the close of his life, compiled the work from his own letters, homilies, commentaries, 10. 'Ouxía, Homiliae. Several of these have &c., and addressed it to his friend Amphilochius, as been published:-1. "Ekopaσis TŶs év Tuis Bagia mark of respect, and not because the questions | λείοις νέας ἐκκλησίας τῆς ὑπεραγίας Θεοτόκου ὑπὸ which were solved had actually been proposed to Βασιλείου τοῦ Μακεδόνος οἰκοδομηθείσης, Descriptio him by that prelate; and he thus accounts for the Novae Sanctissimae Dei Genitricis Ecclesiae, in Paidentity of many passages with those in the author's latio a Basilio Macedone exstructae; a discourse other works. delivered on the day of the dedication of the church described. It was first printed by Lambecius, in his notes to the work of Georgius Codinus, De Originibus CPolitanis, p. 187, fol. Paris, 1655, and is contained, with a Latin version, in the Bonn reprint of Codinus, 8vo. 1839. It is also contained in the Originum CPolitanarum Manipulus of Combéfis, 4to. Paris, 1664, p. 296, with a Latin version and notes ; and in the Imperium Orientale of Bandurius, pars iii. p. 117, fol. Paris, 1711. 2.

In Sepulturam Domini, a fragment, probably from this, is given by Mai (Scriptor. Vet. Nova Collect. proleg. in vol. i. p. xli). 4.

8. Adversus Manichaeos s. Paulicianos Libri Quatuor. No Greek title of the whole work occurs, but the four books are respectively thus described: 1. Διήγησις περὶ τῆς Μανιχαίων ἀναβλαστήσεως, Narratio de Manichaeis recens repullulantibus. 2. 'Anopíaι kal Xúσeis Tŵy Mavixaíwv, Dubia et Solutiones Manichaeorum. 3. Toû kwτíov λóyos r, Photii Sermo II. 4. Κατὰ τῆς τῶν Μανιχαίων ἀρτιφυοῦς πλάνης, ̓Αρσενίῳ τῷ ἁγιωτάτῳ μοναχῷ πρεσβυτέρῳ καὶ ἡγουμένῳ τῶν ἱερῶν, Contra repullulantem Manichaeorum Errorem ad Arsenium | Monachum Sanctissimum Presbyterum et Praefectum Sacrorum. The title of the second book is considered by Wolff to apply to the second, third, and fourth books, which formed the argumentative part of the work, and to which the first book formed an historical introduction. The second book is intended to show that the same God who created spiritual intelligences, also created the bodies with which they are united, and the material world generally; the third vindicates the divine original of the Old Testament; and the fourth reiterates some points of the second and third books, and answers the objections of the Paulicians. The first book has several points in common with the historical work of Petrus Siculus [PETRUS, No. 7] on the same subject, so as to make it probable that one writer used the work of the other, and it is most likely Photius availed himself of that of Petrus. This important work of Photius was designed for publication by several scholars (vid. Wolf, Praefat. in Anecdot. Graec. vol. i. and Fabric. Biblioth. Graec. vol. vii. p. 329, vol. xi. p. 18), but they were prevented by death from fulfilling their purpose. Montfaucon published the first book, with a Latin version, in his Bibliotheca Coisliniana, p. 349, &c. ; and the whole work was given by Jo. Christoph. Wolff, with a Latin version and notes, in his Anecdota Graeca, vols. i. ii. 12mo. Hamb. 1722, from which it was reprinted in vol. xiii. of the Bibliotheca Patrum of Galland, fol. Venice, 1779. A sort of epitome of this work of Photius is found in the Panoplia of Euthymius Zigabenus. Oudin contended that the work of Metrophanes of Smyrna, on the Manichaeans and on the Holy Spirit, was identical with this work of Photius; but this opinion, which is countenanced in a foregoing article [METROPHANES], is erroneous.
