of Antioch, notes that the Interpreter composed ten thousand volumes1. The titles of his works have come down to us thanks to two catalogues: the Chronicle of Seert2 and the catalogue of Abd'isho. The latter gathered together at the end of the thirteenth century the exegetical works of Theodore. After his death they were translated into Syriac because of his allegedly Nestorian leanings3. The Bishop of Mopsuestia has handed down to us texts which are enriching from several points of view. They illustrate his profound theological, biblical and spiritual knowledge. It is striking that his works circulated in practically all the centers and theological schools of both East and West. The author's vast literary production attests to the zeal with which he defended and proclaimed the divine word. In the East he is called Mpashqana (dčäčÔ'đÐß), that is, the Interpreter par excellence. If we go back to the period in which he lived (5th century), then we can readily identify the reason for the disappearance of almost all his works. Before moving on to the subdivision of Theodore's works, we shall present a list of them using the two above-mentioned catalogues, that of Abd'isho translated by Assemani from Syriac into Latin, and the Chronicle of Seert translated by P. Dib from Arabic to French. It should be stressed that these works reflect a typically Antiochene form of theology and exegesis.

San Efrén de Nísibis: Himnos de Navidad y Epifanía.
Introducción, traducción y notas a cargo de Efrem YILDIZ SADAK.
La traducción de los himnos de Navidad y Epifanía de San Efrén de Nisibis introducen al lector en el mundo semítico bíblico mediante dos géneros poéticos: homilías métricas mēmrē e himnos madrāšē.
A través de la homilía métrica, mēmrā, el autor de los himnos nos presenta una composición versificada estructurada con un número indeterminado de parejas de versos de igual número de sílabas. San Efrén es conocido por sus mēmrē heptasílabos.
Los himnos madrāšē constituyen el cuerpo más importante de la producción literaria de este doctor de la Iglesia universal. Dichos himnos servían como composición poética para fines litúrgicos que se cantaban durante la celebración litúrgica, formando dos coros llamados si‘yātā. El himno, madrāšā se caracteriza por el empleo de un determinado número de estrofas que utilizan la misma estructura métrica, acompañada de un responsorio, ‘unāyā que se repite al concluir la estrofa cantada.
A través de estos himnos y homilías, San Efrén muestra un profundo conocimiento del texto bíblico del que se sirve para introducir al lector en un mundo simbólico, además de maravilloso, único.
