The principal literary achievement of Peter of Callinicus, patriarch of Antioch from 581 to 591 is the rebuttal, directed against his co-religionist Damian, pope of Alexandria from 557/8 till 606/7. It has waited a long time for publication in a modern edition: the work survived not in its Greek original, but in Syriac translation, the theme is technical and complicated and its author belongs to a period and to a communion unfamiliar to most students of Christian life and thought in the patristic era. Dans le present volume, les trois savants editeurs nous fournissent la deuxieme partie du Contra Damianum de Pierre de Callinique, deux tomes sont encore en preparation, qui acheveront l’ouvrage. La partie du texte editee cette fois est, peut-on dire, totalement claire: il n’ya guere de lacunes dans le texte, les trois manuscrits conserves et la tradition indirecte parvenant a combler presque tous les trous que presente chacun des temoins pris separement. La traduction et meme le resume en anglais permettent de bien suivre le developpement de Pierre, lequel refute pour ainsi dire pas a pas un texte de Damien, patriarche monophysite d’Alexandrie, et de se rendre compte combien les problemes de logique et plus encore la question du rapport entre les mots et les realites etaient sous-jacents aux polemiques de cette epoque.
