| Title | Orthodoxy and Heterodoxy in the Works of Pachomios Rousanos (1508-1553) on Greeks and Muslims |
| Summary | This thesis investigates the works on Orthodox Greeks and Muslims of the post-Byzantine intellectual, theologian and Athonite monk, Pachomios Rousanos (1508–1553). Active during the first half of the sixteenth-century Ottoman Empire, Rousanos engages with the religious phenomena that were occurring in Europe and the Ottoman lands in the first half of the sixteenth-century. The aim of this study is to understand how he defines the boundaries of O/orthodoxy in his writings on Orthodox Greeks and Muslims in a time of intense confessional polarization in European lands and of Sunnitization in the Ottoman Empire. Operating with concepts such as "orthodoxy," "heterodoxy," and "heresy," this study is a contribution to the field of Eastern Christian and Ottoman studies. |
