Abstract

«Le Diable est allé mille fois à Compostelle», disaient certains prédicateurs parisiens au milieu du XIIIe siècle, inquiets de voir leurs ouailles entreprendre en si grand nombre le «saint volage» en Galice. Le trajet n'était pas toujours facile, il pouvait même être dangereux et il fallait se méfier des hommes plus que des loups ou des tempêtes. Mais des lieux et des histoires merveilleuses le scandaient, répétés à l'envi et maintes fois représentés, et des milliers d'hommes et de femmes, de tous âges, provenance et conditions sociales, y partirent à pied, à cheval ou en bateau.Les traces de cette aventure sont encore visibles partout en Europe dans les chroniques, légendes, peintures, sculptures, églises, chapelles, confréries, ponts, hôpitaux, ports de départ ou d'arrivée. C'est à faire revivre le quotidien et l'imaginaire des pèlerins de tous horizons qui visitèrent le sanctuaire du «baron saint Jacques» que s'attache ce livre à partir de sources multiples et variées qui en montrent la richesse et la pérennité.

Abstract

Compostelle, La Mecque, Lourdes, Jérusalem, les pèlerinages connaissent un regain inattendu en ce début de XXIe siècle. Les raisons de ce succès ne manquent pas : volonté de rompre avec un quotidien pesant, essor des voyages, souci de retrouver des traditions, recherche d'une symbiose avec la nature, fonction identitaire de la religion, etc. Le pèlerinage a beau être vécu souvent comme un acte individuel, il s'agit incontestablement d'un phénomène de société. C'est pourquoi, jadis comme aujourd'hui, les pouvoirs publics ont très souvent mis en œuvre une « politique du pèlerinage ». Il s'agit non seulement d'assurer l'ordre public, mais également de capter au profit des autorités civiles les foules pèlerines, voire les détourner de leur objectif spirituel initial. Plus récemment, les partis et mouvements politiques de masse instituèrent des pèlerinages non religieux, à la fois actes identitaires et manifestations de force. Dans la continuité de travaux portant sur les couleurs, les emblèmes et les symboles de la politique, des historiens se sont retrouvés à l'occasion d'un colloque international et pluridisciplinaire pour explorer les différentes modalités de la politisation des pèlerinages. Prenant pour objet des lieux et des moments variés, ils en ont décrypté le sens politique, implicite ou explicite. Ces études du langage non verbal de la politique mettent en évidence l'importance des gestes et des attitudes, des objets et des monuments. L'ascèse du chemin, le dépassement de soi, les rites de participation, l'héroïsme du but tant convoité et enfin atteint, tout ne conduit-il pas à faire du pèlerinage une métaphore du combat politique ?

Abstract

This is a volume which seeks to understand the numerous pilgrimage writings of the Dominican Felix Fabri (1437/8-1502), not only as rich descriptions of the Holy Land, Egypt, and Palestine, but also as sources for the religious attitudes and social assumptions that went into their creation.

Abstract

This volume explores the special connection that linked England and Rome between the seventh and the eleventh centuries, a topic which in spite of its relevance and attraction has never before been dealt with in a publication of this scale and depth. By bringing together scholars from different countries and disciplines and by relying on important recent archaeological findings that have led to a firmer knowledge of early medieval Rome, the volume provides a detailed and integrated investigation of the ways in which contacts between England and the Eternal City developed across the early Middle Ages. With special attention to major themes such as pilgrimage, artistic exchange, and ecclesiastical politics, the essays in this volume show the continuity of the Anglo-Saxons’ relations with Rome as well as the ways in which, over time, these adapted to different circumstances. They also show that Anglo-Saxon England should not be thought of as just a passive recipient of influential cultural trends, but rather as an important player in the multi-faceted world of early medieval Europe in which Rome, by now the city of the popes, kept its centrality as a source of spiritual and political power.

Abstract

Mirage of the Saracen analyzes the growth of monasticism and Christian settlements in the Sinai Peninsula through the early seventh century C.E. Walter D. Ward examines the ways in which Christian monks justified occupying the Sinai through creating associations between Biblical narratives and Sinai sites while assigning uncivilized, negative, and oppositional traits to the indigenous nomadic population, whom the Christians pejoratively called "Saracens." By writing edifying tales of hostile nomads and the ensuing martyrdom of the monks, Christians not only reinforced their claims to the spiritual benefits of asceticism but also provoked the Roman authorities to enhance defense of pilgrimage routes to the Sinai. When Muslim armies later began conquering the Middle East, Christians also labeled these new conquerors as Saracens, connecting Muslims to these pre-Islamic representations. This timely and relevant work builds a historical account of interreligious encounters in the ancient world, showing the Sinai as a crucible for forging long-lasting images of both Christians and Muslims, some of which endure today.
