Abstract
EN The life and works of John Chrysostom have been the subject of considerable research throughout the centuries. The present article offers a more comprehensive systematization of them, based on comments and references made about Chrysostom by patriarch Photius I of Constantinople in his Bibliotheca. In the individual codices of this work, Photius demonstrates knowledge of Chrysostom’s theological and apologetic writings as well as his homilies, sermons, and letters. Among all the examples, eight codices refer directly to such writings (Focjusz 1986-1999, codices 25, 86, 172, 173, 174, 270, 274, 277). In addition, the Bibliotheca contains indirect references to both Chrysostom’s works and life (Focjusz 1986-1999, codices 59, 77, 96, 116, 162, 168, 229, 231, 232, 273). By systematizing all these examples, the present article greater clarity concerning both the works of John Chrysostom and the historiography devoted to him.
