Abstract:
The article examines the literary sources of the anonymous Panegyric on Nicholas, named Kochanov, a 14th-century Saint of Novgorod, presumably written in Novgorod in the middle of the 16th century. In numerous cases the author of the Panegyric conveys the few historical information about the life of the Saint by the borrowings from certain literary sources. Established ones are the Sermon on the memory of Basil of Caesarea by John XIII of Constantinople, the Panegyric of Nicholas of Myra attributed to Clement of Ohrid, and the anonymous Sermon on the transfer of the relics of Nicholas the Wond

Abstract:
This article explores the cult of St Nicholas in later eleventh-century Bari, focusing on its importance to the new Norman rulers in the region as well as to their subjects. While acknowledging the influence of earlier expressions of the cult in Normandy and in Byzantine southern Italy, it argues that for numerous reasons Nicholas was, for Bari, an especially important – and appropriate – intercessor. During these years, which witnessed the translation of the saint from Myra, economic developments, church politics and the demands of the First Crusade merged to render Nicholas an ideal patron f

Abstract:
The history of the study of the Old Rus iconographic heritage of Kyiv is an extremely small contribution to the national history of art. Until now, Russian scholars with their biased attitude toward Ukrainian, and primarily Kyivan, iconographic sources, which were mostly stolen and appropriated by Moscow museums, have been leading the way in this research. Such an illustrative monument is the fresco of St Nicholas from St Michael’s Golden-Domed Cathedral, which is now kept in the Tretyakov Gallery.

Arguments are put forward in favour of Theodorus’ identification with Pope Urban’s legate Teuzo, cardinal of San Giorgio in Velabro, who could have been set off to Rome, accompanied by Prince Yaroslav Sviatopolchich, whom the former could have met at the consecration of St. Egid Basilica in Somogyvár.

Abstract:
In Medieval Germany, the name of Saint Nicholas of Myra was the second most frequently encountered first name after John. At least 1,000 German surnames were formed from the first name Nicholas. The abundance of these surnames is attributed to the various methods of surname formation, coupled with the fact that they were pronounced and written differently in all dialects. Among the patronymics undoubtedly derived from the first name Nicholas, the following ones stand out: Kloos Niklos; Klusch Niklos, Klos, Klus;(K/C)laas Niklas; Ni(e)tsch(e) the first syllable Ni(e)- from Nikolaus and the suff

Abstract:
Feasts associated with relics have occurred since antiquity. They play a major role in the life of both the Catholic and Orthodox churches. In contemporary practice, relic feasts often include both religious and secular events, which are especially significant in small cities that possess relics of a patron saint. This paper analyses the feasts associated with St Nicholas of Myra, St Euthemia of Chalcedon, and St Alexander Schmorell; two of these traditions go back to the medieval era, the third has more recent origins.

In the ancient Russian art of the XV–XVI centuries, there are often works with the image of St. St. Nicholas of Myra, represented in various iconographic types and accompanied by images of holy wives. These monuments have a similar compositional structure. Among them, the most significant are those icons where the image of the Myrlician saint is placed in the centerpiece, and the figures of selected saints are represented in the margins.

This paper aims to clarify the production context of the textus written in Bari by Nicephorus, about the translation of the relics of St. Nicholas from Myra (Turkey) to Bari. Through the study of narrative and textual choices and the manuscript tradition, it is possible to better define the relationship between text and context, and to understand what role Nicephorus’ text plays in the strategies of the urban aristocracy for the control of the new church. In this way, we can frame the rhythms, protagonists and changes in the political structures that characterize the phase of crisis, that Bari

Images in some manuscripts, such as the Liber Regulae of the Order of the Holy Spirit from Rome, depict such ceremonies.

At one time one of the most important cities in Lycia, Myra almost has passed into obscurity. In addition to some interesting tombs and a theater, the most enduring legacy of ancient Myra is the tradition that developed around its most famous resident and bishop, St. Nicholas, who was the historical person behind the legend of Santa Claus. Popular etymology explained the name of the city as being derived from the Greek word for myrrh, an aromatic spice, but this is unlikely.
