Просматривая старые письма нашел забавную рецензию на "Книгу еретиков" Д.Бирюкова. В порыве просветительского пафоса выкладываю ее здесь:
Finally, finally I've finished this terrific and awesome book, and what I have to say:
1. To not to miss yourself in all these sources you should be at least a bachelor of theology or something;
2. The earliest origins are really hard to be read; But the latest, for example, verbi gratia, the Alexiad by Anna Comnena or Pseudo-Psellus scriptures are relatively easy to comprehend, and I have a question: does it mean that humans also had to be taught to express their own thoughts since the beginning of human's history till now? I mean, I haven't ever read any source from Ancient history that wouldn't be congested with hardly understood sententias, frases, idiomatum etc. Pero hay que agregar que no se muchos origenes de la historia antigua, mal pero verdad;
3. I wonder how the author could not lose himself in all these contradictions and apostasies; but it is much better to read originals, you know, than to read 400-500 pages of someone's ideas about some sources;
4. Finally, it was nice to find the description of heresy, dogma and personal belief in the very beginning.
