La acedia y Evagrio Póntico. Entre ángeles y demonios.

Evagrio Póntico es uno de los grandes maestros de la espiritualidad cristiana. Dentro de su obra existen algunas temáticas que poseen un mayor desarrollo que otras lo que ciertamente responderá a las prioridades que les fijaba el autor. Una de ellas es la acedia, logismos al que le otorga un peso mayor que a cualquiera de los otros pensamientos malvados. ‘El demonio de la acedia es el más pesado de todos’, dice en el Tratado práctico. El fenómeno de la acedia, a la vez espiritual y psicológico, cobra un importante protagonismo en la configuración de la vida espiritual del monje. A diferencia de la vanagloria, dela gastrimagia o de cualquiera de los otros siete logismoi, ella exige por parte del cristiano una particular vigilancia y una lucha permanente. Si se permite que ingrese al alma, detrás vendrá todo el resto de los demonios, pero una vez vencido, le sobreviene al alma ‘un estado de paz y un gozo inefable’.
Por otro lado, Evagrio considera que en su proceso de perfección, el monje vive en una continua lucha contra los demonios en la que también intervienen los ángeles. El mundo de los hombres está situado entre el de los ángeles y el de los demonios y, por tanto, se encuentra empujado hacia un lado o hacia el otro, a veces combatido y a veces combatiendo. Escribe en el Antirrhetikos: ‘Entre las naturalezas racionales, unas combaten, otras ayudan a los que combaten y otras combaten a las que combaten… Las que combaten son los hombres, las que ayudan son los ángeles de Dios y sus adversarios son los demonios impuros’. Como afirma Guillaumont, el mundo de los hombres se encuentra en medio de una aventura cósmica.
Estos dos elementos, la acedia por una parte y el juego entre ángeles y demonios por otra, deben tener puntos de coincidencia. Es decir, el combate permanente que se libra entre las criaturas racionales debe repercutir de alguna manera en los procesos acediosos que se dan en el alma humana como parte ineludible del camino de perfección. El objetivo de este trabajo, entonces, es determinar algunos aspectos característicos o estrategias empleadas por los demonios para inducir la acedia en el alma del monje, según los escritos de Evagrio Póntico, pero haciendo referencia también a otros autores de la espiritualidad cristiana.

Vol. I has added t.-p. in Syriac

History of the monastery of Beth Abhe and of Nestorianism for three centuries

I. The Syriac text, introduction, etc.–II. The English translation

The object of the present work is to give in a convenient form the complete Syriac text of the “Book of Governors”, together with an English translation and necessary notes.
The “Book of Governors”, better known as the “Historia Monastica of Thomas of Margâ”, was written in the Syriac language in the first half of the ninth century of our era. Its author Thomas was originally a monk in the famous Nestorian Monastery of Bêth ‘Âbhê, which was founded at the end of the sixth century by Jacob of Lâshôm, the modern Lasim near Kerkûk. Bêth ‘Âbhê was practically an offshoot of the “Great Monastery” of Mount Îzlâ near Nisibis, where the first Christian ascetics of Mesopotamia, under the direction of Mâr Awgîn of Clysma near Suez, established themselves in the early part of the fourth century. It was a building half fortress, half monastery, and it stood in a forest (hence the name Bêth ‘Âbhê, i. e., “house of the forest”) upon a mountain peak between two valleys on the right bank of the Great Zâb river. This monastery had been endowed with large estates and many possessions by several Persian noblemen, and to it was given the proud title of the “King of Monasteries”; its society generally contained several members of noble Persian families. The monks of Bêth ‘Âbhê were renowned for their learning, and under the shadow of its walls the revision and re-arrangement of the “Ḥudhrâ” or Service-Book for all the Sundays of the Year were made, and the famous recension of the Syriac version of the “Paradise” of Palladius was completed. Attached to the monastery was a fine ecclesiastical library in which were preserved copies of histories and other works which are no longer extant. Four, if not five, of the Patriarchs of the Nestorian Church were educated at Bêth ‘Âbhê, and during the period of which we have any written record of its existence, i. e., A.D., 595—850, at least one hundred of its sons became Bishops, Metropolitans, and Governors of Nestorian dioceses in Mesopotamia, Arabia, Persia, Armenia, Kurdistan and China.

Burkitt. S. Ephraim’s quotations from the Gospel. 1901.

S. EPHRAIM’S QUOTATIONS

FROM THE GOSPEL

COLLECTED AND ARRANGED

BY

F. CRAWFORD BURKITT M.A.

CAMBRIDGE
AT THE UNIVERSITY PRESS
1901

THIS book is an attempt to determine what text of the Gospels was used in the genuine works of S. Ephraim, and to investigate the bearing of his quotations upon the date of the Peshitta. S. Ephraim, commonly known as Ephraem Syrus, is the only one of the worthies of the Syriac-speaking Church whose name is well known both in the East and the West, and his surviving works, even when all doubtful and spurious pieces have been set on one side, are by themselves as voluminous as all the other remains of Syriac literature earlier than 400 AD. He himself died about 373 AD, so that any version of the Bible used by him must be at least as old as the fourth century.
