Abstract

Holiness on the Move: Mobility and Space in Byzantine Hagiography, explores the literary, religious, and social functions of monastic mobility in Byzantine hagiography, touching on aspects of space, narrative, and identity. The ten chapters included in this volume highlight the multifaceted and rich nature of travel narratives, exploring topics such as authorship and audience, narrative structure and function, identity-making and practicalities of and discourse on travel. In terms of geographical span, the case studies cover Constantinople and its hinterland, Asia Minor, mainland Greece, Trebizond, the Balkans, and southern Italy, and range chronologically from the end of the sixth to the fourteenth century. The contributions offer novel insights and perspectives on the importance of mobility in the literary construction of holiness in the Byzantine world and the wider medieval Mediterranean, the spatial dimension of sacred mobility, and the ways in which mobility is employed in the narrative construction of hagiographical texts. As such, the volume joins the burgeoning research on sacred mobilities and will interest students and scholars of Byzantine and medieval literature, religion, and history, as well as a wider readership with an interest in the study of space and mobility.

Abstract

"The texts in this volume Passion of Boniphatos; Life of the Man of God, Alexios; Life of Markos the Athenian; Life of Makarios the Roman; Passion of Christopher; George, the Great Martyr, which includes the Passion of George and also the Miracles of George ; Passion of Niketas were never gathered together in a single collection in Byzantium. The connecting threads, however, that unite these popular legends are multiple. All of them, often with cross-references and in mutual influence, tell stories that configure various dimensions of the "limits" as experienced or conceived in Byzantium: the borders, that is, which separated cultural insiders from outsiders. These borders take, as we shall see, different forms, designating the powerful and the outcasts, the real and the imaginary, the human and the beyond human. They also point to a spectacular reversal of expectations, since what stands at first glance outside borders is projected as the ideal. The stories, with their interlocking themes, will speak for themselves to the modern reader. Yet the texts were to some extent linked also in Byzantine ritual culture and in their textual forms and modes of transmission. In short, they are connected by the usually low-register Greek in which they are told; by the manuscripts (often provincial and usually liturgical in which they were transmitted, sometimes in proximity with one another and other similar legends; and by the implied suspicion or straightforward rejection that they often received from those promoting official orthodoxy. All these texts thus gesture toward what we sometimes call the "apocryphal," as opposed to canonical, Christian traditions, and the "popular," as opposed to more learned, religious expression"--
