The new age of prophecy: the Chronicle of Matthew of Edessa and its place in Armenian historiography
Tara Lee Andrews · 2009
Catalogue summary
The chapter reads Matthew of Edessa's Chronicle through two prophecies attributed to Yovhannēs Kozeṙn, showing how biblical models organize a claim that Byzantine and Armenian rulers abandoned obligations to the Armenian people.
Why this matters
It clarifies the theological structure through which a major medieval Armenian historian explained political loss and recent events.
