Metochites did not use the most common iambic verse, but chose to commemorate his deeds and immortalize his thoughts and experiences in the heroic Homeric verse. At the same time he took advantage of the poetic works of Gregory of Nazianzus, who exercised a considerable influence upon his language and his general attitude towards his fellow men and his social environment."-- NO Text griech., Einleitung engl CN PA5319.M4 SN 9782503564562 K1 Metochites, Theodoros : 1270-1332 : Criticism and interpretation K1 Gregory : of Nazianzus, Saint : Influence K1 Bibliothèque Nationale de France : Manuscript : Graecus 1776 K1 Byzantine poetry : History and criticism K1 Christian saints : Biography : Poetry : Early works to 1800 K1 Christian poetry, Byzantine K1 Byzantine poetry K1 Christian poetry, Byzantine : History and criticism K1 Manuscripts, Greek (Medieval and modern) : History K1 Quelle K1 Byzantinisches Reich K1 Christliche Lyrik
