On one compositional and stylistic feature of Theodosios’ life of St. Peter of Korisa

View through CrossRef
The paper deals with some essential functions and the significance of the parallelism - the most prominent rhetorical figure in ancient Near Eastern poetry, especially inherent to the Book of Psalms - in the construction and shaping of the central part of Theodosios? Life of St. Peter of Korisa. In this vivid description of ascetic contests with demons, presented gradually in the form of more and more fearful temptations, till Saints? final triumph and conciliation, the antithetic parallelism is used in several distinctive ways. Its broad presence in Theodosios? work proves that the principle of doubleness and repetition lies in the basis of Serbian medieval literature.
