Abstract

Les autorités et les penseurs chrétiens du Moyen Âge ont, en règle générale, tenu un discours extrêmement négatif à l'égard de ceux qu'ils appelaient les païens, qu'il s'agisse de figures polythéistes du passé ou d'individus professant au présent une autre religion : stupides, brutaux, sans foi ni loi, les païens sont ordinairement donnés pour damnés. Pourtant, dans l'Europe du Nord entre la fin du vie et le début du xiie siècle, une poignée de personnages ont été reconnus comme de « bons païens » par des auteurs chrétiens : certains sont regardés comme fondateurs, vertueux, voire exemplaires, et il arrive même qu'on laisse entendre que l'un ou l'autre d'eux a pu accéder au salut. Ainsi le poème anglo-saxon Beowulf met en scène des personnages héroïques et positifs, laissant planer le doute sur leur sort ultime, enfer ou paradis. De fait, selon les contextes politiques, sociaux, et culturels, les réponses à ce double problème de la vertu et du salut des païens ont été très variables : ainsi, si certaines sociétés ont rapporté sans trop de réticences l'histoire héroïque de leurs ancêtres païens, d'autres ont été amenées à refouler l'essentiel d'un passé jugé incompatible avec le nouveau contexte religieux. L'enquête progresse de façon à la fois géographique et chronologique, explorant tour à tour l'Irlande, les marges septentrionales du royaume des Francs, l'Angleterre, le pays de Galles, la Scandinavie et le monde slave occidental. Dans toutes ces régions, la question des bons païens permet d'éclairer la manière dont, au prix d'accommodements et de bricolages théologiques, les sociétés nouvellement converties ont appris à parler d'elles-mêmes à travers le miroir de l'Autre païen.

Abstract

"This present volume is the second in an integrated series of three and focused on the literacies of nuns in medieval Europe, brings together specialists working on diverse geographical areas to create a dialogue about the Latin and vernacular texts nuns read, wrote, and exchanged from the eighth to the mid-sixteenth centuries. The present volume is the second in a series of three integrated publications, the first produced in 2013 as 'Nuns' Literacies in Medieval Europe: The Hull Dialogue'. Like that volume, this collection of essays, focused on various aspects of nuns' literacies from the late seventh to the mid-sixteenth century, brings together the work of specialists to create a dialogue about the Latin and vernacular texts that were read, written, and exchanged by medieval nuns. It investigates literacy from palaeographical and textual perspectives, evidence of book ownership and exchange, and other more external evidence, both literary and historical. To highlight the benefits of cross-cultural comparison, contributions include case studies focused on northern and southern Europe, as well as the extreme north and west of the region. A number of essays illustrate nuns' active engagement with formal education, and with varied textual forms, such as the legal and epistolary, while others convey the different opportunities for studying examples of nuns' artistic literacy. The various discussions included here build collectively on the first volume to demonstrate the comparative experiences of medieval female religious who were reading, writing, teaching, composing, and illustrating at different times and in diverse geographical areas throughout medieval Europe"--P. [4] of cover.

Abstract

This is the first concentrated study to examine the literacy of nuns in a comparative fashion and at the same time pays close attention to the individual textual and cultural complexities. This collection of essays, focused on the literacies of nuns in medieval Europe, brings together specialists working on diverse geographical areas to create a dialogue about the Latin and vernacular texts nuns read, wrote, and exchanged, primarily in northern Europe from the eighth to the mid-sixteenth centuries. To date, there has been some significant research in this field but little in the way of cross-cultural study. Drawing especially on the rich body of scholarship that currently exists about nuns and books in England, Germany, the Low Countries, and Sweden, these essays investigate the meaning of nuns’ literacies in terms of reading and writing, Latin and the vernaculars. Contributors to this volume investigate the topic of literacy primarily from palaeographical and textual evidence and by discussing information about book ownership and book production in convents. In this first concentrated study that examines the literacy of nuns in a comparative fashion the essays pay close attention to the individual textual and cultural complexities of nuns’ literacies in the European Middle Ages.
