  • Catacombs of Rome
    Catacombs of Rome The Catacombs of Rome (Italian: Catacombe di Roma) are ancient catacombs, underground burial places under Rome, Italy, of which there are at least forty, some discovered only in recent decades. Though most famous for Christian burials, either in separate catacombs or mixed together, people of all the Roman religions are buried in them, beginning in the 2nd century AD,[1] mainly as a response to overcrowding and shortage of land. The Etruscans, like many other European peoples, used to bury their dead in underground chambers. The original Roman custom was cremation, after which the burnt remains were kept in a pot, ash-chest or urn, often in a columbarium. From about the 2nd century AD, inhumation (burial of unburnt remains) became more fashionable, in graves or sarcophagi, often elaborately carved, for those who could afford them. Christians also preferred burial to cremation because of their belief in bodily resurrection at the Second Coming. The Park of the Caffarella and Colli Albani (Rome Metro) are nearby. The Christian catacombs are extremely important for the art history of Early Christian art, as they contain the great majority of examples from before about 400 AD, in fresco and sculpture, as well as gold glass medallions (these, like most bodies, have been removed). The Jewish catacombs are similarly important for the study of Jewish culture at this period. A number of dubious relics of A Procession in the Catacomb of catacomb saints were promoted after the rediscovery of the catacombs. Callixtus, 1905 by Alberto

Prassede, realizzato da Pasquale I (817-824) all’inizio del suo pontificato, conserva uno dei cicli affrescati più importante della città di Roma altomedievale, e che insieme all’architettura e ai mosaici di questa stessa basilica, concorrono a creare un monumento privilegiato per lo studio della produzione artistica di inizio IX secolo. In questa sede proponiamo un primo approccio allo studio di questi affreschi finora poco indagati e una revisione di quanto detto fino ad oggi su un altro complesso legato alla figura di Pasquale I, S. Cecilia in Trastevere, e più precisamente sulla decorazione del suo battistero. Questa ricerca fa parte di un progetto più ambizioso in cui si punta ad approfondire la Roma di Pasquale I in occasione del 12º centenario dell’insediamento del pontefice. Paraules clau: Santa Prassede, Santa Cecilia, Pasquale I, Mosaico, Affreschi, Roma, Pontefice, Martiri Abstract The basilical complex of S. Prassede, commissioned by Paschal I (817-824) at the beginning of his papacy, houses one of the most important frescoe cycles of early medieval Rome, which, together with the architecture and mosaics of this same basilica, turn it into a privileged monument for the study of the artistic production of the early ninth century.

Prof. Dr. David Thornton July 2019 This thesis succinctly investigates the chronological traces and the historical development of the cult of St. Katherine of Alexandria in Late Medieval Scotland. The main argument of this study evolves around why possibly the cult of St. Katherine has not been examined in the previous literature, although the Katherine-cult was predominantly recognized by the Scottish population. The thesis will trace the cult through gradual methodological and contextual steps, that are, hagiography, liturgy, dedications, and onomastics. The outcome will attest to the necessity of the re-evaluation and recognition that the Katherine-cult in Late Medieval Scotland was not any less significant than the cults of native saints of Scotland.

  • Medieval Theatre Miracle Play
    Medieval Theatre Miracle Play SAINT NICHOLAS (A.K.A. SANTA CLAUS) The true story of Santa Claus begins with Nicholas, who was born during the third century in Patara, a village in what is now Turkey. His wealthy parents, who raised him to be a devout Christian, died in an epidemic while Nicholas was still young. Obeying Jesus' words to "sell what you own and give the money to the poor," Nicholas used his whole inheritance to assist the needy, the sick, and the suffering. He dedicated his life to serving God and was made Bishop of Myra while still a young man. Bishop Nicholas became known throughout the land for his generosity to those in need, his love for children, and his concern for sailors and ships. Under the Roman Emperor Diocletian, who ruthlessly persecuted Christians, Bishop Nicholas suffered for his faith, was exiled and imprisoned. The prisons were so full of bishops, priests, and deacons, there was no room for the real criminalsmurderers, thieves and robbers. After his release, Nicholas attended the Council of Nicaea in AD 325. He died December 6, AD 343 in Myra and was buried in his cathedral church, where a unique relic, called manna, formed in his grave. This liquid substance was said to have healing powers which fostered the growth of devotion to Nicholas. The anniversary of his death became a day of celebration, St. Nicholas Day. Through the centuries many stories and legends have been told of St. Nicholas' life and deeds. These accounts help us understand his extraordinary character and why he is so beloved and revered as protector and helper of those in need.

  • The Illuminated Manuscripts of the "Légende Dorée: Jean De Vignay's Translation of Jacobus De Voragine's "Legenda Aurea"
    The Illuminated Manuscripts of the Légende Dorée: Jean de Vignay's Translation of Jacobus de Voragine's Legenda Aurea Hilary Elizabeth Maddocks Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Fine Arts The University of Melbourne 1989 ABSTRACT This thesis considers closely 28 illuminated manuscripts of Jean de Vignay’s translation of Jacobus de Voragine’s celebrated 13th-century compendium of saints’ lives, the Legenda aurea. Vignay’s translation, the Légende dorée, poses some particular problems for manuscript studies. The extant manuscripts can be seen to be accommodated by at least two major genres of medieval French illumination: the transition of vernacular, courtly literature and the tradition of devotional texts. The tension created by these two conventions can be reconciled if we regard the Légende dorée manuscripts as enjoying popularity with an elite and secular audience which was not interested in the text as much as it was interested in the illuminations, or more probably, in the status of owning an important scholarly illuminated work. In establishing appropriate genres for the manuscripts of the Légende dorée, the production of the books within the organised artistic workshop is explored. This has led to the conclusion that while in some cases compositions were freshly devised from the text of the Légende dorée, most illuminators relied heavily on standard workshop models and patterns. As well as attempting to place the manuscripts of the Légende dorée in the milieu of late medieval France and as well as seeking to explore the popularity – or at least the level of ownership – of this translation of a somewhat irrelevant and difficult philosophical work, the thesis also presents for the first time an annotated catalogue of all known manuscripts of the text.
