Abstract:
This article critically re-examines the textual relationship between the Enarratio in prophetam Isaiam attributed to Basil of Caesarea and Basil’s (genuine) homily In ebriosos. It studies how Basil makes use of Isaiah 5:11–12 in his In ebriosos, and shows its degree of resemblance to the Enarratio in Isaiam 5:11–12. Moreover, it refutes the arguments in support of Basil’s authorship of the Enarratio as well as its anteriority and influence on the In ebriosos. The study argues instead that the anonymous author of the Enarratio made use of a certain part of Basil’s In ebriosos in his attempt to fabricate the beginning of his explanation on Isaiah 5:11–12. Finally, the article examines the process of transformation of the homily under discussion into a commentary.
