К уяснению Определение исторического контекста мариологии Феофанa Никейского
Determining historical context of Theophanes of Nicaea´s mariology

Summary/Abstract: Theophanes III, Metropolitan of Nicaea (died ca. 1381) was one of the most important Palamite theologians of the outgoing 14th century. Nevertheless, he didnít sign the Synodal Tome of 1368 condemning Prochoros Cydones. Relying on the inscription on f. 1 of Mosq. Syn. Gr. 461, we put forward a hypothesis that Theophanes, being a prominent Hesychast, might have felt a craving for stillness (hesychia), like St. Gregory of Sinai et al. Despite this, there existed a certain ìcommon domainî in theology between Theophanes, on the one hand, and the brothers Prochoros and Demetrios Cydones, on the other, and it was due to their general interest in the decrees of the Hieria iconoclast council of 754 and the somewhat different traditions of medieval Byzantine Platonism.
