Anchorites and their texts, such as Ancrene Wisse, have recently undergone a reevaluation based on material circumstances, not just theological import. The articles here address a variety of anchoritic or anchoritic-adjacent texts, encompassing guidance literature, hagiographies, miracle narratives, medical discourse, and mystic prose, and spanning in date from the eighth through the fourteenth centuries. Exploring reclusion and materiality, the collection addresses a series of overlapping themes, including the importance of touch, the limits of religious authority, and the role of the senses. Objects, metaphorical and real, embodied and spiritual, populate the pages. These categories are permeable, with flexible and porous boundaries, demonstrating the conflation of ideas, concepts, and manifestations in medieval materiality. In fact, the permeability of these categories demonstrates how materiality can reshape our approach to medieval texts. It leaves room for directions for future study, including the application of material analysis to previously unstudied objects, spaces, and literary artifacts.

A philological approach has long dominated the study of ancient religions, while archaeological and art historical evidence in the form of (cult) statues, votive objects, cult paraphernalia, and architecture has played a secondary role, primarily as illustration supporting information conveyed by ancient authors. Consequently, text-oriented interpretations have shaped a scholarly axiom that presupposes the existence of an ancient theology that can be hardly proven for Greece, Rome, or Etruria where religion was grounded in ritual practice. Even cultures with much stronger religious textual traditions, such as those of Egypt or the Near East, seem to have placed great emphasis on ritual as a performative religious act with prominent material-oriented aspects. More recently, however, rituals as the central component of ancient religious activities have come to be studied increasingly from an anthropological perspective. The volume Materiality and Visibility of Rituals in the Ancient World will continue this tradition by paying close attention to ritual objects and spaces as carriers of religious information but likewise from a classical archaeological and art historical perspective.
Автор: Beate Pongratz-Leisten, Karen Sonik Название: The Materiality of Divine Agency ISBN: 1501510681 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781501510687 Издательство: Walter de Gruyter Рейтинг: Цена: 99110.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: Two topics of current critical interest, agency and materiality, are here explored in the context of their intersection with the divine. Specific case studies, emphasizing the ancient Near East but including treatments also of the European Middle Ages and ancient Greece, elucidate the nature and implications of this intersection: What is the relationship between the divine and the particular matter or physical form in which it is materially represented or mentally visualized? How do sacral or divine "things" act, and what is the source and nature of their agency? How might we productively define and think about anthropomorphism in relation to the divine? What is the relationship between the mental and the material image, and between the categories of object and image, image and likeness, and likeness and representation? Drawing on a broad range of written and pictorial sources, this volume is a novel contribution to the contemporary discourse on the functioning and communicative potential of the material and materialized divine as it is developing in the fields of anthropology, art history, and the history and cognitive science of religion.

Die Relation zwischen schrifttragendem Artefakt und dessen materieller Natur sowie dem meist herrschaftsdiskursiven Inhalt der verschrifteten Texte hat bislang kaum im Fokus der altorientalischen Forschung gestanden. Der Band m chte hierzu rezente kulturwissenschaftliche Forschungsans tze zur Relevanz der Materialit t und Pr senz des Geschriebenen unter Ber cksichtigung sozial-ontologischer Gesichtspunkte vorstellen und dadurch den Forschungsraum des alten Vorderasiens vom 4. Jtsd. v. Chr. bis zum 2. Jtsd. v. Chr. in seiner ganzen materiellen Bandbreite pr sentieren. Untersucht werden Artefakte wie Tontafeln, Weihplatten, Stelen, Schalen, Siegel, Kegel, N gel, Statuen, Vasen, Perlen usw. Gefragt wird dabei nach dem besonderen Zusammenwirken von Text, Schriftmedium und Stofflichkeit innerhalb eines damit assoziierten Umfelds. Wie ver ndern etwa gew hltes Material und Verwendungszweck eines Artefakts dessen Rezeption und Wahrnehmung und welche m glichen Hinweise auf den Grad der Lesef higkeit in der Bev lkerung lassen sich daraus entnehmen.
