The Post-Resurrection Appearances of Christ
Konis, P. (2006) “The Post-Resurrection Appearances of Christ. The case of the Chairete or ‘All Hail’”. Rosetta 1: 31-40 http://www.rosetta.bham.ac.uk/Issue_01/Konis.htm Rosetta 1. http://www.rosetta.bham.ac.uk/Issue_01/Konis.htm The Post-Resurrection Appearances of Christ. The case of the Chairete or ‘All Hail’ Polyvios Konis PhD Byzantine Studies, University of Birmingham The post-resurrection appearances of Christ are a series of apparitions described in the four canonical Gospels and the first Epistle of Paul to the Corinthians.1 In the absence of any canonical description about Christ’s actual moment of resurrection, these apparitions became a visual and literal synonym and evidently confirmed the reality of Christ’s resurrection. The details in such descriptions are not necessarily consistent: the number of angels and women differ in each Gospel; the time of Christ’s appearance to them differs as well; and while Paul mentions Peter as the first to see Christ resurrected, the Marys (or Myrrh-bearers) are the individuals described by the Gospels as first at the tomb.2 The most popular apparitions were: the Incredulity of Thomas, an event exclusive in John;3 the Appearance to the Eleven, described by all four Gospels and sometimes fused with the Mission of the Apostles; the Marys at the Tomb described with variations again by the four Gospels; and the Chairete. The Chairete is a unique event described by Matthew. According to the Evangelist, two women, namely Mary Magdalene and the other Mary (the mother of Jacob and Joses) discovered Christ’s empty tomb and when they saw the resurrected Christ, he hailed them. -

Finch, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2011 This dissertation examines New York Public Library Spencer ms. 22, a fourteenth- century French Bible en images (narrative picture Bible), and its relationship with the picture Bible of King Sancho VII of Navarre (Amiens, Bibliothèque municipale ms. 108), completed in the year 1197. Previous scholarship on these manuscripts has described Spencer 22 as a copy of Sancho’s Bible, based on the close similarity of visual narrative content and iconography found in Spencer 22 and its predecessor. The range of aesthetic and linguistic differences between the manuscripts, however, signifies a process more akin to translation, a term that better expresses the relationship between Sancho’s Bible and Spencer 22, as well as the specific needs of its patron, Jeanne II of Navarre. -
