Abstract:

In a letter from Cyprian, bishop of Carthage in the middle of the third century, written while he was in hiding during the Decian persecution to the imprisoned confessors in Carthage, there is mention of two crowns, two colors and two flowers. The letter can be dated to the middle of April 250. Cyprian wanted to console those in prison that they would not be failures if they failed to be martyred. Those who were not martyred could receive equal renown through their confession as those who were martyred. As much as martyrdom was highly prized among African Christians, Cyprian wanted to assure t

Abstract: In hymn vi of his <em>Peristephanon</em>, Prudentius dramatically reworks the plot of <em>Passio Fructuosi</em>. The poet turns the perpetrators from well-known and dutiful representatives of a transient empire into despicable caricatures of evil and vice, transforms the martyred bishop from a caring pastor into a heroic leader of heroes, re-narrates the roles of Christian family members as anonymous martyr-cult devotees, and shifts the focus from the martyred bishop as a local, beloved model of imitation and encouragement during a time of persecution to the three martyrs together as

Abstract:

The predominant image of the crown is among the most baffling features of several, difficult Gnostic apocalypses, recensions of which we know to have been controversial in the school of the Neoplatonic philosopher Plotinus (ca. 263c.e.). In these “Sethian” apocalypses, recovered from Nag Hammadi (Upper Egypt) in 1945, crowns adorn heavenly beings, and are donned by seers during their celestial voyages. It is clear they are significant in this literature, but scholarship has yet to answer how, and why. First, while these crowns are relatively common in the “Sethian Gnostic” literature, they are

The Beatification of the United Romanian Bishops, in the Light of the Theology of Martyrdom. The Church of Christ fulfills three functions in the history of salvation: martyria, leiturgia and diakonia. Confession of Faith, martyria, it is a fundamental mission entrusted to the Church, which is exercised by preaching the Gospel (Matt. 28:19), the Logos transmitted and explained, the life in the faith and defending it from internal enemies (schisms, polemics, etc.) or external ones (heresies and persecutions). Since the times of apostolic and ancient Christianity martyria was achieved through a

Abstract:

Between 1918 and 1941, Serbian church architecture reflected an atmosphere of renewal in national terms as much as in the spiritual life. In order to preserve the memory of the Serbian soldier-the national hero and martyr-a concept for a memorial church was conceived, dedicated to the Liberation Wars of 1912-1918. This allowed the Serbs to discover new dimensions of their national identity, which was deeply rooted in the soldier cult. In the atmosphere of the extensive social renewal and founded on the Orthodox identity, a symbolic bond between the Liberation Wars of 1912-1918 and the Kosovo s

Abstract:

Kingsley Amis once had great fun imagining how the modern world might have turned out if Luther had successfully been bribed with the offer of a cardinalate. A much more likely miseen-scène is that suggested by Kierkegaard, who preferred to think how much better the world, or at least Danish Protestantism, would have been had Luther become a martyr. What makes the martyr’s crown a more plausible item of ecclesiastical headgear for Luther than a cardinal’s hat is that the idea of martyrdom was so important to him. Its importance was by no means restricted to the four years or so during which he

Abstract:

The article describes relationship in the family of Christian martyr of the 3rd century St. Perpetua. Author analyses how conflict between a Christian and his/her non-Christian relatives, typical moment in the Lives of Christian martyrs, is reflected in “The Passion of Perpetua and Felicitas”. The uniqueness of this document is that the family conflict is described on behalf of the martyr herself in Perpetua’s prison diary, where the problem of relations with her household and, in particular, the conflict with her father, pushing her to apostasy, is the central motif.

Abstract:

Abstract Ralph Dekoninck focuses on this painting’s dramatic display of suffering and death of the first martyr of Christianity as a case study in the paradox of the performative strategy of ‘sacred horror’ in the context of Tridentine reform. In this large altarpiece, Dekoninck identifies the coincidence of abjection and glory as a reflexive topos through which martyr, painter, and beholder are bound in a complex visual erotics. The troubling beauty of violence, which simultaneously repels and draws the viewer nearer to the image, invites an inner emulation of the holy, bodily sacrifice which

Abstract:

Given the salient role of embodied tactics in contemporary networked protests in performance, in this essay I listen for how the embodied sonic praxis of protests during the Arab revolutions translates into the audio, visual, and text modalities of digital media. I propose audibility, or the appearance and perceptibility of sound objects, as that which translates the “live” sound that occurs in physical spaces into representational spaces, and, in so doing, alters the temporality and spatiality of the sonic experience.

Abstract:

The aged Bishop Polycarp was burnt to death in the arena at Smyrna in the afternoon of 23 February 155 (or 156), in front of a hostile crowd. The terrible story was lovingly recorded, copied and passed round the churches; it is probably the first non-biblical record of a martyrdom, and survives by itself and in Eusebius’ History. As Polycarp entered the arena Christian eyewitnesses heard a voice from heaven, saying in Greek, for all to understand, . The first word means ‘be strong’; the last shares a root with two other Greek words, which means courage, and which means a male person, a man. We

Abstract:

This paper examines two high-profile commemorative spaces in Namibia’s national capital, Windhoek, designed and constructed by North Korean state-owned enterprise Mansudae Overseas Projects. These commemorative projects illustrate the complex and evolving intersections between public art, architecture and urban form in this post-colonial context. They show how sites designed around heritage and collective identity intersect with urban space’s physical development and everyday use. The projects also illustrate the intersecting histories of three aesthetic lineages: German, South African and Nor
