Abstract

Comment l’imprimerie a-t-elle modifié la culture orale des pèlerinages, faite de cantiques chantés, de récits de miracles racontés et mimés ? Quand le fidèle sait lire, comment le livret transforme-t-il celui-ci, en étant un agent essentiel de la pastorale ? Dans quelle mesure l’imprimé tient-il compte de son auditoire ? Cet ouvrage se propose de répondre à ces questions. À partir d’une enquête sur 596 livrets concernant 216 sanctuaires sur trois siècles, les rapports entre imprimerie et culture sont examinés. Cet ouvrage se veut d’histoire totale, qui montre de manière transversale la production économique du livre, les intentions des auteurs, et la consommation/appropriation de l’objet. Le thème est aussi présenté de manière chronologique, par les livrets flamboyants (1480-1560), le temps des controverses (1560-1660), et le long temps de l’aventure individuelle (1660-1790). Le livret imprimé n’aura pas fait disparaître la démarche de pèlerinage très ancrée dans la culture des hommes, mais il aura réussi à la domestiquer.

Abstract

In the fourth century the idea arose that the Cross on which Christ was crucified had been found by Helena, mother of Emperor Constantine. Thus began a legend that would grow and flourish throughout the Middle Ages and cause the diffusion of countless splinters of holy wood. And where there is wood, there was once a tree. Could it be that the Cross was made from that most noble species, the Tree of Life? So, gathering characters along the way, the legend evolved into a tale that stretches from the Creation to the End of Time. A Heritage of Holy Wood is the first reconstruction of the iconographic and literary tradition of the Legend of the True Cross. Its broad scope encompasses relic cults, pilgrimages, travellers' tales and the Tree of Life and involves Church Fathers, crusader kings, Teutonic Knights and mendicant orders, all of which influenced the legend's depiction from its earliest representation in manuscripts, reliquaries and altarpieces, to the great monumental cycles of the high Middle Ages. If the holy wood was the medium of medieval memory, A Heritage of Holy Wood reveals the growth rings of fifteen centuries of imagery.

Abstract

Sacred places have long exercised a special fascination. Sacred places are not static entities but reveal a historical dynamic. They are the result of cultural developments and have varied multidimensional levels of significance. They are places where time is, as it were, suspended, and they are points where holy times and holy places meet. Sacred places are places apart. It is this specificity in the context of the Christian religions of the West that 'Loci sacri' wishes to unveil by bringing together specialists from various disciplines, countries, and Christian denominations. One of the questions is why some sites have for centuries proven to be so popular while others have not. Another topic is the way in which extraordinary natural sites have been designated as sacred and given new meaning, primarily by means of architecture. "Loci sacri" also explores the 'eternal' character of this sacred status.
