Exposé de Alexander Podossinov lors du colloque "La mer Noire (4e-7e siècles apr. J.-C.) la fin du monde antique, début d’un ordre nouveau ? "
Organisateurs: Anca Dan (Paris), Hans-Joachim Gehrke (Fribourg-en-Brisgau / Berlin), Alexandr Podossinov (Moscou).
The aim of the paper is to investigate, what the Anonymus added to his known sources (Arrian, Ps.-Scymnos, Ps.-Scylax and Menippos) in the Periplus Ponti Euxini, a compilation of 6th century AD. Where these additions his own or did he use other source? If so, how did he work with his sources? There are about 45 names with the indication of the stereotypic formula «now called» (νῦν λέγεται or ὁ νῦν λεγόμενος) and more than a half of them probably refer to author's time because they are not mentioned elsewhere. Otherwise, it is possible to observe some references to Artemidoros of Ephesos (e.g. in paragraph 92). In any case, we must state that the compilation of Anonymus was not a mechanical combination of different texts, but a creative work, meant to produce an integral, consequent, uniform and actual description of the Black Sea shores.
