Recueil des actes du colloque qui s'est tenu à Lyon les 14 et 15 décembre 2007. Le colloque posait la question de la norme à propos de la religion romaine antique : s'il est vrai que celle-ci était une religion sans dogme ni révélation, cela implique qu'il n'existait ni orthodoxie, ni hérésie. S'imposait pourtant une norme impérative, celle de la stricte observance du rituel : on peut dès lors parler d'orthopraxie (John Scheid). Les différentes communications, qui illustraient l'application (ou la transgression) de cette norme, ont permis de montrer que la norme peut être définie comme un cadre général, un ensemble de principes qui font qu'une conduite religieuse correspond à la tradition des ancêtres (le mos maiorum). L'important est, en règle générale, moins ce qu'on fait précisément que la manière dont on le fait. Cette norme vaut pour l'ensemble d'une religion, pour des appréciations globales aussi bien que pour tel ou tel culte, dédié aux divinités ou à l'empereur.

This collection of essays explores the multifaceted representation of power and authority in a variety of late antique and medieval hagiographical narratives (Lives, Martyr Acts, oneiric and miraculous accounts). The narratives under analysis, written in some of the major languages of the Islamicate world and the Christian East and Christian West — Arabic, Armenian, Georgian, Greek, Latin, Middle Persian, Ottoman Turkish, and Persian — prominently feature a diverse range of historical and fictional figures from a wide cross-section of society — from female lay saints in Italy and Zoroastrians in Sasanian and Islamic Iran to apostles and bishops and emperors and caliphs. Each chapter investigates how power and authority were narrated from above (courts/saints) and below (saints/laity) and, by extension, navigated in various communities. As each chapter delves into the specific literary and social scene of a particular time, place, or hagiographer, the volume as a whole offers a broad view; it brings to the fore important shared literary and social historical aspects such as the possible itineraries of popular narratives and motifs across Eurasia and commonly held notions in the religio-political thought worlds of hagiographers and their communities. Through close readings and varied analyses, this collection contributes to the burgeoning interest in reading hagiography as literature while it offers new perspectives on the social and religious history of late antique and medieval communities.
