Abstract

Solomon is one of the more complex and fascinating characters in the history of Israel. As a king he is second only to David. As the king who gave Israel its temple he is unsurpassed. As the prototype of the sage his name lives on in numerous biblical and non-biblical writings. As the magician of later tradition he has established himself as a model for many other aspirants in this field.This volume contains the proceedings of an international conference on Solomon that was held at the Faculty of Theology and Religious Studies of the University of Leuven, September 30 – October 2, 2009 and discussed various aspects of this multifaced character as he appears in Jewish, early Christian, and Islamic tradition.

Abstract

First modern edition, with facing translation, of two of the most mysterious Old English texts extant. The dialogues of Solomon and Saturn, found in MSS Corpus Christi College Cambridge 422 and 41, are some of the most complex Old English texts to survive. The first two dialogues, in verse and prose, present the pagan god Saturn inhuman form interrogating King Solomon about the mysterious powers of the Pater Noster, while in a second poem the two discuss in enigmatic terms a range of topics, from the power of books to the limits of free will. This newedition - the first to appear for some 150 years - presents a parallel text and translation, accompanied by notes and commentary. The volume also includes a full introduction, examining the evidence pointing to the influence of Irish continental learning on the dialogues' style and content; arguing that the circle which produced the dialogues was located at Glastonbury in the early tenth century, and included the young Dunstan, future archbishop of Canterbury; and locating the texts in the context of the learned riddling tradition, and philosophical debates current in the ninth and tenth centuries. Dr DANIEL ANLEZARK teaches in the Department of English at the Universityof Sydney.

Abstract

À l’époque médiévale, en Orient et en Occident, se conjuguent sur la figure mythique du roi Salomon des aspects variés et parfois contradictoires touchant aussi bien au secret qu’à une diffusion d’idées et de représentations visant à un consensus social et politique. Les contributions ici réunies s’inscrivent dans une optique comparative dans la mesure où la place qu’occupe Salomon dans les trois religions du Livre (judaïsme, christianisme, islam) n’a fait que croître et embellir durant la période médiévale, dans le cadre d’une symbolique du pouvoir en partie commune et de ce que l’on pourrait qualifier une « culture de l’équivoque » (Bruno Roy). Paradigme du roi sage et juste d’après le texte biblique, Salomon est en effet également un souverain dépravé, pourvu de 700 épouses et de 300 concubines, femmes qui, au temps de sa vieillesse, détournèrent son cœur pour l’inciter à suivre d’autres dieux et à sombrer dans l’idolâtrie. Son sort dans l’au-delà a ainsi fait l’objet de nombreuses spéculations. En outre, plusieurs traités pseudépigraphiques grecs des premiers siècles de notre ère, ainsi que la tradition juive rapportée par Flavius Josèphe et abondamment exploitée dans l’Occident médiéval (notamment à partir du XIIe siècle), en font un roi exorciste et magicien, capable de contraindre les démons à lui obéir. Salomon joue également un rôle fondamental dans la littérature magique byzantine, copte et arabo-musulmane, dont certains spécimens ont été traduits ou adaptés en latin. À l’instar d’Hermès et d’Aristote, il est donc l’un des grands héros emblématiques du vaste mouvement de transfert culturel entre l’Orient et l’Occident qu’a connu la seconde moitié du Moyen Âge.
