Abstract

This volume gathers a dozen essays by the author on the ancient traditions of Mary's Dormition and Assumption, all of which expand on the work published in his major study on this topic, 'The Ancient Traditions of Mary's Dormition and Assumption' (Oxford, 2002). The essays were originally published between 1999 and 2011 and cover a broad range of topics in relation to traditions about the end of Mary's life, from ancient gnostic Christianity to Christian anti-Judaism to the beginnings of Marian veneration. Although each of these items was previously published in another venue, for the first time this volume makes these writings on the Virgin's Dormition available together, offering an important supplement and in some cases update of the earlier monograph. While its chapters remain largely faithful to the original publications in their content, when appropriate, they have been selectively updated to account for more recent research.

Abstract

In Virgin Whore, Emma Maggie Solberg uncovers a surprisingly prevalent theme in late English medieval literature and culture: the celebration of the Virgin Mary's sexuality. Although history is narrated as a progressive loss of innocence, the Madonna has grown purer with each passing century. Looking to a period before the idea of her purity and virginity had ossified, Solberg uncovers depictions and interpretations of Mary, discernible in jokes and insults, icons and rituals, prayers and revelations, allegories and typologies-and in late medieval vernacular biblical drama.More unmistakable than any cultural artifact from late medieval England, these biblical plays do not exclusively interpret Mary and her virginity as fragile. In a collection of plays known as the N-Town manuscript, Mary is represented not only as virgin and mother but as virgin and promiscuous adulteress, dallying with the Trinity, the archangel Gabriel, and mortals in kaleidoscopic erotic combinations. Mary's "virginity" signifies invulnerability rather than fragility, redemption rather than renunciation, and merciful license rather than ascetic discipline. Taking the ancient slander that Mary conceived Jesus in sin as cause for joyful laughter, the N-Town plays make a virtue of those accusations: through bawdy yet divine comedy, she redeems and exalts the crime.By revealing the presence of this promiscuous Virgin in early English drama and late medieval literature and culture-in dirty jokes told by Boccaccio and Chaucer, Malory's Arthurian romances, and the double entendres of the allegorical Mystic Hunt of the Unicorn-Solberg provides a new understanding of Marian traditions.

Abstract

In Late Antique Images of the Virgin Annunciate Spinning: allotting the scarlet and the purple , Catherine Gines Taylor traces the way early Christians assimilated the symbolism of spinning into images of the Annunciation. Taylor offers an art historical and interdisciplinary look at the earliest images of Mary spinning, underscoring the iconographic model of idealized matronage consistent with lay piety and the cult of Mary. The personal and domestic nature of this motif is evidence toward popular Mariological devotion that preceded the exclusive, semi-divine presentation of the Theotokos , and stands in contrast with traditional ascetic models for Mary.

Abstract

La Conception de Marie était célébrée en Normandie le 8 décembre depuis le Moyen Âge, en dépit d'âpres discussions théologiques qui trouvèrent leur terme au xixe siècle. La dévotion induisit, aux xve et xvie siècles, une remarquable efflorescence artistique : concours de poésie lors de la « Feste du Puy » des palinods à Rouen, vitraux chatoyants et sculptures, images d'une piété mariale renouvelée au xixe siècle, exaltant la beauté de Marie pour manifester son Immaculée Conception. Les auteurs, historiens et spécialistes de la littérature et des arts, analysent textes et images, invitant, pour comprendre la « Fête aux Normands », à se tourner vers l'Orient byzantin et l'Angleterre, vers le Puy d'Amiens et la « Fête des Lumières » à Lyon. Pluralité de regards pour découvrir et décrypter des pratiques sociales et religieuses dans la longue durée.

Abstract

Das sogenannte Lukasbild des Freisinger Diözesanmuseums gehört zu den kostbarsten byzantinischen Kunstwerken in Bayern. Zahlreiche Wissenschaftler aus unterschiedlichen historischen und kunsttechnologischen Spezialgebieten haben sich mit ihrer Entstehung, Veränderung und abenteuerlichen Geschichte beschäftigt. Beiträge eines internationalen Symposiums mit Spezialisten aus Geschichte und Kunstgeschichte, Theologie und Byzantinistik rekonstruieren die mit der Ikone verknüpften Ambitionen. Sie widmen sich u.a. dem Phänomen der Ikone und ihrer wundersamen Entstehung, der Aussagekraft einer Bildreliquie als Kultbild sowie der Frage nach ihrer Einbettung in westliche Repräsentationsformen. In einem internationalen Projekt wurden die Ikone und ihr mit Emailarbeiten kostbar geschmückter Silberbeschlag mit neuesten kunsttechnologischen Methoden untersucht.

Abstract

"Would you like to learn to pray like a medieval Christian? Rachel Fulton Brown traces the history of the medieval practice of praising Mary through the complex of prayers known as the Hours of the Virgin. More than just a work of comprehensive historical scholarship, the book asks readers to immerse themselves in the experience of believing in and praying to Mary. Mary and the Art of Prayer crosses the boundaries that modern scholars typically place between observation and experience, between the world of provable facts and the world of imagination, suggesting what it would have been like for medieval Christians to encounter Mary in prayer. Mary and the Art of Prayer opens with a history of the devotion of the Hours or "Little Office" of the Virgin. It then guides readers in the practice of saying this Office, including its invitatory (Ave Maria), antiphons, psalms, lessons, and prayers. The book works on several levels at once. It provides a new methodology for thinking about devotion and prayer; a new appreciation of the scope of and audience for the Hours of the Virgin; a new understanding of how Mary functions theologically and devotionally; and a new reading of sources not previously taken into account. A courageous and moving work, it will transform our ideas of what scholarship is and what it can accomplish."--Jacket.
