Abstract: In continuation of a series of publications devoted to the study of the literary corpus composed by the Byzantine hesychastic author Kallistos Angelikoudes in the second half of the 14th century, this article proposes a discussion of the problem of the existence in the manuscript legacy of this writer of the so-called “two books” – the Hesychastic Education and the Hesychastic Consolation. The author studies the manuscript tradition of the Discourses (Logoi) of Kallistos Angelikoudes and presents for the first time a critical edition of one of the Discourses preserved in the manuscript Barb. gr. 420, supposedly belonging to the corpus of texts that made up the book Hesychastic Education, and therefore not included in the collection commonly referred to as the Hesychastic Consolation and found in the Vat. gr. 736. In Logos 15, the author touches upon the important theme of the difference in essence and energies in God, and, contrary to the opinion of some modern researchers, Kallistos Angelikoudes strictly adheres to the Palamite interpretation of the doctrine of man’s participation in God. Despite the fact that Kallistos touches on this issue in various of his writings, in theological and ascetic texts that can be correlated with the Hesychastic Consolation and Hesychastic Education, this problem is rarely considered with such completeness and clarity as can be seen in Logos 15 being published.
Key words: Kallistos Angelikoudes, Byzantine Hesychasm, Athos, manuscript tradition, critical editions
