Holy Fool
said
to
have
lived
in 5th-century Constantinople but in fact
by the author
of
the Vita, who introduces
himself
as
Nikephoros, priest
at
St Sophia;
he appears
to
have been active in the middle
or
the latter
half of
the
10th
century.
The
intro¬
duction discusses
the
literary,
stylistic
and chronological problems connected
with
the Vita,
analyses the author's world view and tries
to
show that
a
majuscule
fragment
preserved
in
Munich is
a
remaining
part
of
the autograph and
therefore crucial for
the
establishment of
a
critical
text.
It also contains
a
catalogue
of
the
more
than 100 MSS in
which
the Vita, entirely
or
in
parts,
has been
copied
as
well
as a survey
of how St Andrew has been remembered in
other
ways.
The volume ends with
a
number
of indices intended
to
facilitate
the
use
of
the
edi¬
a
St
Andrew
is
invented
so-called
tion.
