Prihvaæeno: 17.5.2006. Pripadnika dubrovaèkoga ogranka benediktinskoga reda, Ansel- ma Bandurija (Dubrovnik, 1675.Pariz, 1743.), nalazimo krajem 17. stoljeæa najprije u susjednoj Italiji (okolica Napulja, Rim, Firenca), odakle godine 1702. stie u znamenitu pariku opatiju francuskih mavrinaca, Saint-Germain-des-Prés. Tamo æe, pod okriljem dom Ber- narda de Montfaucona, Banduri izdati dva vana djela, jedno iz po- druèja bizantolokih studija, Imperium Orientale sive Antiquitates Constantinopolitanae (1711.), drugo iz podruèja numizmatike, Nu- mismata imperatorum Romanorum a Trajano Decio ad Palaeologos Augustos (1718.). Godine 1715. Banduri biva primljen u redove kraljevske Académie des inscriptions et belles-lettres. U iduæim se godinama sve vie udaljuje od redovnièke prakse te parike mauri- stièke zajednice, priklonivi se dvorskome krugu vojvotkinje od Or- léansa, majke regenta Filipa II. Orléanskog. Tako æe se, godine 1724., Banduri i konaèno smjestiti unutar Palais Royala gdje i umire u sijeè- nju mjesecu 1743. Kljuène rijeèi: Anselmo Banduri (Banduroviæ), Dubrovnik, be- nediktinski red, mauristi, Firenca, Pariz Uvod Tijekom minulih stoljeæa brojni su bili hrvatski znanstvenici i literati koji su se uputili izvan domovine, eleæi produbiti spoznaje steèene na domaæem tlu. Tom kru- gu pripada i dubrovaèki benediktinac Anselmo Banduri1 (1675.2 1743.) koji, nakon 1 Hrvatske inaèice Bandurijeva prezimena su Bandur i Banduroviæ, u latinskim se tekstovima pot- pisuje s Bandurius, a opæenito je poznat pod patronimom Banduri. 2 Veæina Bandurijevih biografa (poglavito Aleksandar Stipèeviæ) navodi 18. kolovoza 1675. kao da- tum njegova roðenja.

Veliki izdavaèki pothvat objavljivanja crkvenih otaca, kojega su se pothvatili fran- cuski mauristi, a kojemu je i na Banduri konkretno pridonio, nalazi se na liniji tzv. nostalgije za kræanskom antikom, odnosno tadanjih nastojanja Katolièke crkve na svojoj unutarnjoj konsolidaciji i obnovi, u svjetlu sve snanije prisutnosti reformi- ranih crkava te dekadencije drutva u cjelini. Sredstva za borbu protiv tih drutvenih fenomena Crkva æe traiti ne vie u filozofiji veæ u povijesti. Da bi se crkvenim dog- mama pribavili vjerodostojni i neoborivi potpornji, posee se za djelima najranijih kræanskih pisaca, koje se dri predstavnicima prvotnih uèenja, lienih kasnijih inter- polacija, te za vremenima koja bismo mogli nazvati kræanskom Arkadijom. Èime su zapisi iz prvih stoljeæa kræanstva fascinirali krajem XVII. stoljeæa crkvene uèenjake èasnome govoru, proèitanome nekoliko mjeseci nakon Bandurijeve smrti pred èlanovima fran- cuske Académie des inscriptions et belles-lettres, èiji je Banduri bio poèasni èlan, Nicolas Fréret izrije- kom kae kako mu je godina Bandurijeva roðenja: Ce qui concerne la famille mest inconnu, aussibien que la date de la naissance & le détail de sa première éducation, pa onda i dob u tre- nutku smrti nepoznata: On croit quil avoit soixante-douze ou soixante-treize ans: car on ne sait pas précisément son âge.

XVI, Paris 1751, str. 348- 355. 3 Reforma iz koje je proizila i kongregacija sv. Mavra jedan je od posljednjih reformskih pokreta unutar reda sv. Benedikta na francuskome tlu prije revolucionarnih godina s kraja XVIII. stoljeæa. Poèetak joj se smjeta na kraj XV. stoljeæa, a u punom je zamahu u godinama nakon posljednjeg zasjedanja Tridentskog koncila (1563.). Godine 1618., u mjesecu studenom, odran je opæi konstitu- irajuæi sabor nove kongregacije, a tri godine potom iz Rima dolazi i konaèno odobrenje za njezino djelovanje u obliku patentnih pisama pape Grgura IV. Otad broj benediktinskih samostana koji pristupaju zajednici stalno raste. Tridesete godine XVII. stoljeæa, kad i parika opatija Saint-Ger- main-des-Prés postaje dio reformirane zajednice, biljee osobito velik odaziv, a statistièki pregled brojèanog stanja kongregacije za godinu 1715. navodi 193 samostana èlana te 2000 redovnika koji u njima ive i djeluju. U razdoblju od 1630. do 1650. kongregacija dobiva pravila i ustav, a defin- irane su i glavne smjernice kojima æe krenuti njezina znanstvena djelatnost. Izrazito centralizira- nog ustroja (sve odluke donose se na sjednicama vodstva kongregacije), mauristièka je zajednica razvila bogatu znanstvenu i izdavaèku djelatnost, koja se uobièajeno dijeli u tri razdoblja, od kojih prvo pripada drugoj polovini XVII. stoljeæa i obiljeeno je figurama dom Luca dAcheryja i dom Jeana Mabillona, a istraivanja su tada prvenstveno okrenuta povijesti reda, njegovih samostana te svetaca, djelima crkvenih otaca i srednjovjekovnih crkvenih teolokih pisaca. Drugo se razdo- blje protee od godine 1710. do 1760. Njegov je glavni nositelj dom Bernard de Montfaucon, u èijem æe okrilju djelovati i Banduri, a koji iri povijesno-filoloku djelatnost reda na prouèavanje vrela bitnih za povijest francuskih pokrajina te opæe i knjievne povijesti francuskoga kraljevstva, ne zanemarujuæi pritom znanstveni doprinos boljem poznavanju povijesti kræanstva na tlu Fran- cuske, u okviru projekta Gallia Christiana. Treæe razdoblje pada u godine nakon 1760., u kojima kongregacija sve vie izlazi iz uskih samostanskih okvira i otvara se suradnji sa svjetovnim instituc- ijama, poglavito s kraljevim Cabinet des Chartres.

Jedan od mnogih sliènoga ivotnog i profesionalnog itinerara u velegradu poput Pariza, Banduri nije imao sreæe da mu pismena ostavtina nakon smrti bude objedi- njena na jednome mjestu. Stoga danas ostajemo uskraæeni za brojne podatke koji bi poblie rasvijetlili ivotnu filozofiju dubrovaèkoga benediktinca. No ipak, uz poneku osobnu notu koja se dade ièitati iz predgovora objavljenim mu djelima te napomene suvremenika, pariki arhivi posjeduju i dio njegove korespondencije s dom Bernar- dom de Montfauconom, iz razdoblja od 1700. do 1701., koja prethodi Bandurijevu dolasku, a kako se naposlijetku pokazalo, i trajnom ostanku u Parizu.

Banduri was born in Ragusa, Dalmatia. Banduri joined the Benedictines at an early age and took the monk name Anselmo. He studied at Naples, and was eventually sent to Florence, then a flourishing center of higher studies. Here he made the acquaintance of the famous Benedictine scholar Bernard de Montfaucon, at the time traveling in Italy in search of manuscripts for his edition of the works of St. John Chrysostom. Banduri rendered him valuable services and in return was recommended to Cosimo III de' Medici, Grand Duke of Tuscany for the chair of ecclesiastical history in the University of Pavia. It was also suggested that the young Benedictine be sent to Paris for a period of preparation, and especially to acquire a sound critical sense. Banduri arrived in Paris in 1702 and entered the Abbey of Saint-Germain-des-Prés as a pensioner of the Grand Duke of Tuscany. He soon became a disciple of the French Maurists and began an edition of the anti-iconoclastic writings of Nicephorus of Constantinople, of the writings of Theodore of Mopsuestia, and of other Greek ecclesiastical authors.

  • François De Callataÿ
    François de Callataÿ Curieux et antiquaires ( XVI e siècle), médecins et jésuites ( XVII e-XVIII e siècles): les tribulations du connoisseurship numismatique 1682. Lorsque le jeune Augsbourgeois Johann Baptist Croph (1660-1722) publie à Iéna sa dissertation doctorale sur les antiquités macédoniennes, il accom- pagne son commentaire historique sur les rois de Macédoine, leurs mœurs et leur armée d’une unique planche d’illustrations 1. On y voit onze monnaies antiques disposées sur un fond évocateur de l’Antiquité retrouvée: un mur composé de grandes plaques bien appareillées surmonté d’une colonne brisée (fig. 1). L’image affirme clairement que, au-delà des textes, l’illustration de l’histoire antique est d’abord fournie par les monnaies. En outre, à mieux y regarder, on s’aperçoit que trois des onze monnaies représentées sont des fantaisies renaissantes, non reconnues comme telles 2.Voilà qui est assez représentatif de la façon dont le milieu antiquaire concevait,tard encore dans le xvii e siècle,l’étude de l’Antiquité,et indique d’emblée la nature du principal problème du connoisseurship numismatique: la dénonciation des faux modernes. 1683. Un an plus tard, Johann Georg Volckamer (1616-1693), un autre Bavarois, premier médecin de la République de Nuremberg celui-là, botaniste et ami de Charles Patin 3, décide de donner une seconde édition à l’ouvrage sur les monnaies rares de Grande-Grèce qu’avait publié Prospero Parisio à Naples en 1589 4. Cette réédition est précédée d’une dissertation de circonstance demandée à Christoph Arnold (1627-1685), proche de Joachim von Sandrart, sur les principaux auteurs qui,à l’image deVolckamer,furent à la fois médecins et numismates 5 (fig.2).
