Cet article fournit la première édition critique de la Vie de Constantin le Juif (BHG 370b), ainsi que sa traduction. Conservée dans le ms. Cambridge, UL, Dd. IV. 42 (ménées de février), elle date du XIIIe s. Il s’agit d’une version abrégée qui s’avère être le maillon entre la Vie longue (BHG 370; Xe s.) et la version transmise par le Synax. CP (BHG 370c), attestée dans les mss à partir du XIe ou du XIIe s. Le processus d’abréviation se situe donc entre le Xe et le XIe s. Néanmoins, le texte BHG 370b n’est pas la forme intermédiaire en tant que telle, mais la copie d’un modèle perdu, ici désigné par le sigle μ du stemma.

The discussion of the text is preceded by a general introduction to the Judeo-Greek language, its literature and their characteristics, with a special emphasis on the biblical and medieval components of this tradition. A closer look at the text of MS Vat. ebr. 423 shows that it can be placed within a wider context of medieval and early modern biblical Judeo-Greek glossaries, while still being unique in its composition, given that it is the only alphabetically ordered, thematical glossary within the medieval and early modern Judeo-Greek tradition.

Within the collection of six progymnasmata of Geometres’ the two here translated form a pair, both in form and subject matter. Both texts are presented in the form of a letter to an anonymous addressee, and both contain ekphraseis, rhetorical descriptions, of Geometres’ garden estate. This article provides the first translation of both texts into a modern language other than contemporary Greek. The translation is accompanied by a concise commentary in the form of notes to assist in the understanding and appreciation of the text.
