Résumé :

The monk Albertos Marinos descended from Chios and acted before and after the mid of 16th century. His writing work consists of 32 speeches (sermons and small essayes) and follows the tradition of the preaching. According to new information, he preached in Chios, Constantinople and Crete, and the handwritten tradition of his works consists of two manuscripts-collections that include exclusively works by Albert Marinos: i) the autograph code of his speeches (Berolinensis 377, at the University of Krakow, Poland), which contains about half of his speeches, and ii) the Marcianus code gr. II 112 (coll. 1172), olim Nanianus CXXXIV (Biblioteca Nazionale Marciana, Venice); from two other manuscripts including, among others, Marino's speeches: i) Iviron 577 (Mount Athos) and ii) Vaticanus gr. 1914 II (Biblioteca Apostolica Vaticana, Vatican) and a third category that includes a speech among many other works, and mainly speeches, of various writers in various manuscripts. His most widespread speech, in this third category, is the Speeche in Crucifixion, which is saved in 20 codes and presents some peculiarities in its handwritten tradition. It has been shown that his speeches have been intertwined with the speeches of Damaskinos Stouditis in the Cod. Iviron 577 (Mount Athos) and the Catalog of E. Mioni, Bibliothecae divi Marci Venetiarum,. Codices Graeci Manuscripti, vol. I, Roma 1967, pp. 332-335 has been corrected, who considered as independent the first two sections of the manuscript and not as the work of Albertos Marinos. Special features and relations of the manuscripts are examined and the publication of 6 speeches in the 16th century (1568, 1570 and 1594) are commented in the "Thesaurus" by Damaskinos Stouditis, which after 1594 was replaced by 7 speeches by Ioannkios Kartanos. In the second part (Part B), 6 speeches from the 32 of Albertos Marinos are published based on the conclusions regarding the handwritten tradition of his work and the significance of each manuscript in it. An annex is described and critically commented on the relations of the manuscripts that deliver the speech Speeche in Crucifixion.
