Abstract:
<em>This essay reinterprets Begum Rokeya&rsquo;s Sultana&rsquo;s Dream (1905) through the lens of the medieval dream vision genre, drawing parallels between Rokeya&rsquo;s feminist utopia and traditional dream allegories. Sultana&rsquo;s Dream envisions a fantastical world where women transcend the confines of purdah and the zenana, advocating for gender equality and education as central themes. By constructing the narrative as a dream journey, Rokeya aligns with the medieval tradition, using Sister Sara as a guiding figure akin to Boethius&rsquo; Lady Philosophy, a motif often seen in medieva

Attributed to Francesco Colonna, the Hypnerotomachia Poliphili (HP) —The Strife of Love in a Dream— wrote in the Renaissance’s threshold: 1499. From our perspective, in spite of the date of its publication, it is a novel deeply rooted in the medieval tradition which, in turn, was nourished of Patristic Literature sources. In consequence, will be demonstrated that Colonna adopted, in a one hand, the Christian dream vision perspective (the medieval dream-book and incubation), to access the knowledge of the [him]self. In another hand, monastic composing strategies —about prayer and spiritual heal

Dreams of a return to a golden age in remote antiquity were common tropes in imperial Chinese philosophy, literature and art.

This article illustrates how evocations of this unwieldy era were re-signified through its association with Europe’s ‘Middle Ages’.

Abstract:
This book reached me only in 2019, but it still deserves a critical review. After all, the topic quickly proves to be highly relevant and significant both for the early Middle Ages and the entire world of imagination, dreams, and visions. This study is based on Keskiaho’s doctoral dissertation submitted to the University of Helsinki &lt;?page nr="376"?&gt;in 2012. Examining a wide range of patristic and other religious sources, Keskiaho highlights the wide ranging discourse on these phenomena from ca. 400 to ca. 900, taking into view particularly Augustine of Hippo and Gregory the Great, who a

Abstract:
Authors of local histories composed in Persia during the 10th-15th centuries deftly wove their lands and their communities into Islamic narratives rooted in the Islamic heartlands of Iraq, Syria, and Arabia. They positioned their communities to better fit into the scope of Islamic history and claimed privileged connections to Mohammad and divine or prophetic authority in various ways. City and regional histories from Persia challenge and reconfigure notions of what constitutes “central” or “peripheral” in the medieval Islamic world and articulate identities that are simultaneously deeply local

Abstract:
The French Symbolist painter Gustave Moreau often used the motifs of fantastic beings and animals in his works, amongst which the unicorn found its place. Moreau got the inspiration for the unicorn motif after a visit to the Cluny Museum in Paris, in which six medieval tapestries with the name "The Lady and the Unicorn" were exhibited. Relying on the French Middle Age heritage, Moreau has interpreted the medieval legend of the hunt for this fantastic beast (with the aid of a virgin) in a new way, close to the art of Symbolism and the ideas of the cultural and intellectual climate of Paris at t

The article is a case study of the life, work and ideas of the Bulgarian political and religious figure Christo Oustabachieff (1871–1953). Beginning his career as a financial official, political activist and founder of one of the first xenophobic organizations, after the First World War he devoted himself entirely to religious activities: he founded the “Good Samaritan” Religious Society (1921), became leader and ideologist of the Orthodox Holy Society for Spiritual Renewal of the Bulgarian people (1924), of the "Greater (Peaceful) Bulgaria" Union (Political Party) (1926–1944), of the "St. Joh

Abstract:
A contribution to the study of Serbo-Bulgarian relations in the 1230s The enquiry into the cult of relics and its manifestations such as miracle working, transfer of mortal remains and the act of translatio that involves the topos of furta sacra relies on two lives of St Sava of Serbia, one penned by Domentijan (Domentianus), the other by Teodosije (Theodosius). The hagiographic episodes most relevant to this enquiry are certainly those describing Sava's stay in Tirnovo, his death (1236) and the translation of his remains to his homeland (1237).

Background. As it is well-known from the statements by O. Messiaen himself in conversations with K. Samuel [10; 7], the French composer had the phenomenon of “colored hearing” associated with the effect of synesthesia. A prerequisite in modern performing art, as in the work of a musicologistresearcher, is the introduction to the worldview of an author-composer. The study of Messiaen’s synesthetic associations helps the interpreter to expand his timbre range in connecting with emotional “immersion” in the essence of the work, and the researcher of his music – to interpret correctly (often – to
