Autorenporträt

F. C. Conybeare, born Frederick Cornwallis Conybeare (1856–1924), was an English Armenian scholar, distinguished for his contributions to the fields of theology and Armenian studies. He was an ardent scholar of ancient languages and biblical criticism. Conybeare was educated at the University of Oxford, where he later became a fellow and lecturer. He displayed a profound knowledge of ancient Greek and Latin literature, as well as biblical and patristic works. In 'The Historical Christ' (1914), Conybeare investigated the historical basis for the figure of Christ, scrutinizing early Christian literature and texts. His examination was marked by detailed philological analysis and the dry wit for which he had become known. Conybeare's scholarship was characterized by a clear and accessible style that appealed to both his peers and the educated public. His literary canon includes critical editions of patristic texts, translations, and insightful analyses of Armenian history and literature, reflecting both his expansive erudition and his dedication to fostering the understanding of early Christian history. Conybeare's works remain valuable resources in classical and religious studies, maintaining relevance for scholars and students engaged in historical theology and the study of Armenian heritage.
