Book Synopsis The Making of the Magdalen by : Katherine Ludwig Jansen
Download or read book The Making of the Magdalen written by Katherine Ludwig Jansen and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2001-07-02 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Best known during the Middle Ages as the prostitute who became a faithful follower of Christ, Mary Magdalen was the most beloved female saint after the Virgin Mary. Why the Magdalen became so popular, what meanings she conveyed, and how her story evolved over the centuries are the focus of this compelling exploration of late medieval religious culture. Analyzing previously unpublished sermons, Katherine Jansen uses the lens of medieval preaching to examine the mendicant friars' transformation of Mary Magdalen, a shadowy gospel figure, into an emblem of action and contemplation, a symbol of vanity and lust, a model of perfect penance, and the embodiment of hope and salvation. She draws on diverse historical sources to reveal the laity's devotion to Mary Magdalen, which departed significantly from the friars' image of the saint, signaling a major development in popular religious practice and personal piety. Finally, the author comprehensively addresses the question of the House of Anjou's alliance with the Magdalen, and illuminates the relationship between politics and sanctity in southern France and Italy. Jansen shows how perceptions of the Magdalen merged with errors and misunderstandings to shape the social, spiritual, and political agendas of the later Middle Ages. She brings to life the rich complexity of medieval culture, which condemned female sexuality and women's preaching and yet popularized the veneration of Mary Magdalen as a former prostitute chosen by Christ to be the "apostle of the apostles," the first to witness and preach the Good News of the Resurrection.

Book Synopsis Marie-Madeleine by : Raymond Léopold Bruckberger
Download or read book Marie-Madeleine written by Raymond Léopold Bruckberger and published by Albin Michel. This book was released on 2014-01-02 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Au moment où elle va rencontrer Jésus, Marie-Madeleine est dans tout l'éclat de sa jeunesse, dans toute la gloire de sa beauté. Elle vit sans frein, à bride abattue, elle est libre. Elle est hors-la-loi et s'en trouve fort bien. Autour d'elle, toute une société la condamne, et en premier lieu les gardiens de la loi, Scribes et Pharisiens, auxquels elle fait horreur. Elle récuse le jugement des juges. Libre, est-elle heureuse? Il y a toujours un moment de bonheur, quand on secoue le joug et qu'on le brise. Pour elle, le moment a peut-être duré longtemps. Les peintres, esclaves de leur oeil, l'ont toujours représentée avec une opulente chevelure blonde, un long manteau de pourpre, comme une impératrice. Elle est l'Impératrice des désirs. Heureuse, Marie-Madeleine l'était sans doute moins qu'elle ne voulait le paraître. Sinon, comment aurait-elle eu le courage, ou même l'idée, d'aller à la rencontre de Jésus, cherchant auprès de lui ce que nul homme ne lui avait jamais donné? Le père Bruckberger nous raconte de sa manière incomparable l'histoire de Marie-Madeleine dont il nous donne, comme dans Marie, mère de Jésus-Christ, une image originale et neuve: celle de la femme orgueilleuse dont le destin bascule, qui se soumet d'un coup et devient l'une des plus proches de Jésus.
Book Synopsis Mary Magdalene and Her Sister Martha by : Jane Cartwright
Download or read book Mary Magdalene and Her Sister Martha written by Jane Cartwright and published by CUA Press. This book was released on 2013 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mary Magdalene and Her Sister Martha: An Edition and Translation of the Medieval Welsh Lives provides scholarly editions and English translations of the medieval Welsh versions of the legends of Mary Magdalene and Martha. Described by Victor Saxer as medieval best sellers, these hagiographical tales, which described how Mary Magdalene and her sister Martha survived a perilous sea voyage from the holy land and evangelized Provence, were available in many different Latin and vernacular versions and circulated widely in the medieval West. The texts were translated or adapted into Middle Welsh some time before the mid-fourteenth century: the Middle Welsh Life of Mary Magdalene is extant in thirteen manuscripts and the Middle Welsh Life of Martha is preserved in eight of the same manuscripts. Jane Cartwright makes the Middle Welsh versions available to an international audience for the first time and provides a detailed study of the Welsh manuscripts that contain the texts, a comparison between the different manuscripts versions and a discussion of the wider hagiographical context of the texts in Wales. The volume includes transcriptions, editions and translations of the two Lives based on the oldest most complete extant versions found in the Red Book of Talgarth c. 1400, as well as an additional section of text describing Mary Magdalene s life before Christ s crucifixion from the fifteenth-century Aberystwyth, National Library of Wales, Peniarth MS 27ii. The edition is accompanied by a comprehensive glossary which provides translations of all medieval Welsh words that occur in the texts, an analysis of the development and transmission of the legends, as well as a discussion of the relevance and popularity of these two female saints in late medieval Wales: medieval Welsh poetry, church dedications, and holy wells are also considered.
Book Synopsis Jacques Lefèvre d'Etaples and the Three Maries Debates by : Jacques Lefèvre D'Etaples
Download or read book Jacques Lefèvre d'Etaples and the Three Maries Debates written by Jacques Lefèvre D'Etaples and published by Librairie Droz. This book was released on 2009 with total page 524 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Three Maries pamphlets published in Paris by the celebrated humanist scholar Jacques Lefèvre d'Etaples appeared between 1517 and 1519, and are virtually his only venture into independent authorship. These four short Latin texts investigated the traditions of the Magdalen and the sisters of the Virgin, and the calculation of the triduum , or three days and nights between the Crucifixion and the Resurrection. Written in a spirit of profound piety, they nevertheless challenged notions of authority and powerful established devotional cults, at the very moment when Luther was mounting his own challenge to orthodoxy, and gave rise to a high-profile controversy which anticipated the response to Luther. This edition presents Lefèvre's Latin texts together with an English translation and an extensive introduction which situates the controversy in its contemporary cultural context, and thus throws new light on Lefèvre's exegesis and his distinctive Christian humanism. Latin and English text.

Book Synopsis The Latin Passion Play by : Sandro Sticca
Download or read book The Latin Passion Play written by Sandro Sticca and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 1970-01-01 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this first comprehensive study of the Latin Passion play, Professor Sticca examines the medieval liturgical ceremonies commemorating the events in Christ's Passion and traces their gradual change in character from the contemplative to the dramatic. The author shows that while Christ's Passion became increasingly popular as one of the sacred mysteries beginning in the tenth century, new forces that allowed a more eloquent and humane visualization and description of Christ's anguish first appeared in the eleventh and twelfth centuries. Professor Sticca analyzes the earliest extant Latin Passion play, the twelfth-century Montecassino codex, and compares it with other Latin and vernacular Passion plays. He refutes the traditional view that the Planctus Mariae is the germinal point of the Latin Passion play and then offers a new theory of its inception. As a literary form, the Latin Passion play appears to Professor Sticca as a creation of the Montecassino monastic circle which was inspired by the liturgical services of Good Friday and the Gospel accounts. Particularly influential also were three themes that developed in the eleventh century: in liturgy, a concentration on Christocentric piety; in art, a more humanistic treatment of Christ; and in literature, a consideration of the scenes of the Passion as dramatic and human episodes. In the course of this investigation, Professor Sticca also reappraises traditional views of the origin of the medieval liturgical drama, indicating that it should not be traced exclusively to the tropes from the schools of St. Gall and St. Martial of Limoges, but rather to a number of sources.

Book Synopsis Did Mary Magdalene Visit Provence? by : Joseph Berenger
Download or read book Did Mary Magdalene Visit Provence? written by Joseph Berenger and published by Fast-Print Publishing. This book was released on 2015-11-04 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Did St. Mary Magdalene, one of Christianity’s most enigmatic figures, really visit Provence, as a local tradition claims? Joseph Bérenger’s famous paper, which is here published in English for the first time, learnedly evaluates the pertinent literary and archaeological evidence which was available to the author in 1925. This volume also includes an English translation of the 1893 study by Louis Duchesne, a fierce critic of the tradition, which partly inspired Bérenger’s article.Despite their age, these two papers still form a useful starting-point for anyone interested in attempting an objective assessment of this intriguing tradition.
