Abstract:

The quasi apparent anti-historicity of Byzantine hagiography is manifested as in unconcretizing the described objects and phenomena and in the corresponding uncertainty of dating and attribution of the monuments themselves. At the same time the hagiographic narrative in its sense is aimed to resolve the task of historicization of an action that proves the uncommonness, sanctity, moral and spiritual greatness of the hero. It is characteristic that hagiographers like to stress their own participation in his deeds. The principle of “autopsy”, maintained in hagiography, helps to prove the reality

Abstract:

The article considers the issue of the intertextuality of Old English hagiography based on the material of prose and poetic works relating to Saint Guthlac, one of the first national English hermit saints. The author analyzes the degree of influence of continental hagiographic canons (including St. Anthony’s hagiography) and the Germanic heroic-epic tradition on St. Guthlac’s hagiographies. The lexical ways of expressing the epic motif of ‘exile’, characteristic of the Old English heroic elegies “The Wanderer” and “The Seafarer”, are studied in the alliterative poem “Guthlac B”, which describe

Abstract:

As a genre defined by its content rather than by its form, the extreme diversity of the kinds of texts that can be considered “hagiographic” often proves an impediment to the progress of comparative hagiology. This essay offers some suggestions for the creation of a controlled vocabulary for the formal description of hagiographic texts, demonstrating how having a more highly developed shared language at our disposal will facilitate both the systematic analysis and the comparative discussion of hagiography.

Abstract:

Although the academic study of hagiography continues to flourish, the role of comparative methods within the study of sanctity and the saints remains underutilized. Similarly, while much valuable work on saints and sanctity relies on materialist methodologies, issues of critical bibliography particular to the study of hagiography have not received the theoretical attention they deserve. This essay takes up these two underattended approaches to argue for a comparative materialist approach to hagiography.

The article discusses the genre of hagiography and changes in the hagiographic composition of the lives of saints of the 20th century. It is indicated that a distinctive feature of the “new” hagiographies is not only the exact indication of the year and place of birth of the saint, but also the inclusion in the text of interrogation reports, excerpts from diaries, letters, and photographs too. The genre of biographies of Russian martyrs and confessors, canonized at the turn of the 20th–21st centuries, is analysed.

In this paper, I will first discuss some of the problems this poses in dealing with Egyptian hagiography as a source of history, then I will argue that it is a kind of history after all: from about 400, when Egyptian hagiography takes off, it consistently provides a totalizing explanation for what h

As part of the pan-Indian Bhakti movement, the Neo-Vaishnavite movement sought to reform the decadent modes of worship practiced in medieval Assam and, in the process, moved beyond the religious confines of the sectarian domain to influence the socio-cultural life of the milieu to which it addressed itself. An important document which enables a reading pertaining to the stated framework is the hagiography. In a hagiographic tradition, the biographical account of the saint is continually juxtaposed with the socio-cultural ethos of the contemporary spatio-temporal frameworks.

Abstract:

The Old Serbian writer Theodosius wrote his Life of St Sava according to the older hagiography composed by Domentianus in 1253/4. Both authors were Hilandar monks and wrote the hagiographies of the first Serbian archbishop on Mount Athos. Unlike Domentianus?s work, Theodosius?s Life has not been dated with precision. Helpful in establishing the date of his Life of St Sava are its manuscript copying tradition and reception in Serbian literature and the analysis of its content. This paper shows that from 1317 the Serbian writers Nicodemus and Daniel II drew on Theodosius?s hagiography, which pus

Abstract:

The present paper aims to investigate the function of the dog-headed image of Saint Christopher among the Romanian Orthodox representations of the 18th century. The research will address the relationship between the existing zoomorphic representations and a new hagiography created by the popular lore, which circulated in Wallachia after 1700. This legend converted the monstrous ugliness of the hagiographic hero into his voluntary relinquishment of physical beauty, a semantic change intended to stress Saint Christopher’s virtue. The article will focus on the role of this unusual visual represen

The hagiography of St. FƏqƏrtä KrƏstos is a 17th c. manuscript and as a local Saint hagiography, it was written in the Ethiopian manuscript tradition by an Ethiopian scribe. The hagiography of saints in Ethiopia is a main literary genre that has invaluable evidences about the saints’ period in a unique form. It provides information about the major events that had taken place relating to the life, works, miracles and the various spiritual struggles of men and women saints. In addition to that it also describes about the bishops, the political situation, the Kings, the name of several places of

Abstract:

The Middle English verse “Life of St. Egwine” is one of the many hagiographic poems affiliated with the so-called South English Legendary or Legendaries (SEL), a widely copied collection of vernacular devotional texts whose earliest compilation has been dated to the thirteenth century, and whose latest manuscripts date to the first half of the fifteenth. A minor saint, Ecgwine was the third bishop of Worcester and the founder of the monastic community at Evesham Abbey. One of the most striking features of his early hagiography is that the earliest version of his vita contains the only survivin

Abstract:

In the age of late Antiquity in the literatures of the Mediterranean basin countries hagiographic discourse has become widespread in pagan, Jewish and Christian literatures. Characteristic features of a literary work with a hagiographical discourse are the presence of a deified character (“man of God”), the combination of the historical substrate with the oral tradition, the dominance of pictorial elements over informative ones, the apologetic and edifying narrative, and the use of archetypes of the “man of God.” In addition to the general hagiographic discourse, there was the Christian hagiog

Abstract:

Abstract The hagiography of the bhakti poet is often times far more elaborate than their compositions and can even determine the interpretation of their poetic productions (Pechilis 2011). The hagiography can exceed the spaces of written or orally composed poetry to shape the visual imagery of the bhakti poet-saint. This article examines two such instances of constructed hagiography and visual imagery in Telugu-speaking southern India, namely those of Siddhendra and Kṣetrayya. Situated within a few kilometres of each other in what is now known as the Krishna district of Andhra Pradesh, Siddhen
