Relics, materializing their lives or martyrdom and filled with virtus, became one of the key aspects of the society in the Middle Ages. Such extraordinary residual material evidence deserved special treatment and protection. The reliquary was invented. No expense was spared on these objects, which were supposed to reflect power and rarity of their content. From the many types and shapes of these containers of sacredness, figural reliquaries stood out as probably most striking mediaeval images and objects. Their visual appearance, emphasized by precious metals and gems, was exceptional not only for the period faithful but for the contemporary visitor of museum expositions. In France, in two regions of Auvergne and Rouergue, six such effigies of saints are almost miraculously preserved. Saved from menaces of ravages of time, religious wars and other calamities, they show the incredible splendour of the mediaeval Church. Thesis stars with an attempt to summarise the bibliography related to figural reliquaries. State of research is not trying to cover every written work; it is rather presenting the changing perspectives and approaches in the field from the nineteenth century onwards. The chapter is taking into account several exhibitions as well, which were reflecting period opinions and research. Following part aims reliquaries as containers mediating saints’ powers, especially regarding figural ones. The text is using Heideggerian terminology to explain reciprocal relationship between relic and reliquary. The following section tries to map numerous examples from the first recorded cases, the last section deals with the terminology used to in the field. The third chapter represents a necessary interruption of the narrative chapters, following chapters are based on material evidence – six preserved reliquaries in the form of bust and sitting figure in French regions of Rouergue and Auvergne. Every short case study is accompanied by bibliography related to each one. Placement and various uses of figural reliquaries were crucial for veneration and their perception, the third chapter deals with these questions. Accessibility of reliquaries and shrines is closely connected with the issue of placement and deserves a separate section. Processions, as one of the key aspects and performances of the mediaeval Church, are presented in the following section. Together with other uses of reliquaries, the chapter tries to connect these practices with mediaeval society putting 9 emphasis on local communities, both ecclesiastic and profane. With the notion from this chapter, the last fifth is devoted to the perception of the figural reliquaries, which is seen through a prism of their materiality and body features. The last section of this chapter deals with their changing appearance and offers paradigmatically different understanding compared to other mediaeval objects or works of art. For the sake of more fluent readability of the main text, quotations are using English translations, accompanied by the original text either in Latin, French, or German for further reading. For the names of the saints and other persons, English variations are utilized, with one exception – generally accepted appellation of St. Foy is too nice to not use. 10 1. State of Research The uniqueness of the bust reliquaries has been always an attractive theme for many scholars tempted by their obscurity and emanating visual power. They represent a subject for a number of scientific articles, monographs, and lectures written over the last two centuries. The following chapter aims to survey the state of research on bust reliquaries, taking account of changing point of view and different motivation of scholars, as well as gradational shaping the autonomous status of works of art rather than initial auxiliary position in the history of art. The chapter is also considering several important exhibitions characterising perspective of research or perception of that time, and indicating the subsequent development of the field as well. From the Nineteenth Century to Constitution of Field During the entire nineteenth and first half of the twentieth century, the whole study of reliquaries was almost reserved for historians incited by two factors. A significant part of works proceeded from their vocation in the Catholic Church, other proportion was arising

    Martial, Sernin, Trophime et les autres : à propos des évangélisateurs et des apôtres en Gaule Alain DlERKENS* Université Libre de Bruxelles Le culte de saint Martial, dont la vigueur est bien attestée au Vr' s., connaît un moment fort aux environs de l'an mil. Considéré d'abord comme un des sept évêques évangélisateurs de la Gaule au milieu du Iir s. (Grégoire de Tours), puis comme un des évêques désignés à Rome par saint Pierre pour porter la bonne parole en Gaule (Vita Martialis aniiquior, des environs de 850), Martial devient alors un parent de Pierre, un compagnon de Jésus, un véritable apôtre (notamment Vita Martialis prolixior). Cette prétention, défendue avec fougue par les moines de Saint-Martial de Limoges et amplifiée par Adémar de Chabannes, se heurte immédiatement à une série d'objections lourdes... avant d'être progressivement reprise, acceptée et de trouver une ultime (et éphémère) consécration au milieu du XIX'' s. lorsqu'en 1854, le culte apostolique de Martial obtient une fois encore Vapprobatur de Rome'. Je tiens à remercier chaleureusement Claude Andrault qui m'a fait l'amitié de m'inviter à son beau colloque sur Saint-Martial. Le bref article qui suit reprend les lignes de force de l'exposé que j'ai présenté à Poitiers le 26 mai 2005. Je voudrais dédier ces quelques lignes à la mémoire de Valérie Fortunier, décédée inopinément peu avant le colloque (8 mai 2005) ; cette jeune et dynamique historienne préparait une thèse de doctorat, sous la direction de Christian Lauranson-Rosaz, sur les mouvements de paix dans les « pays du centre de la Gaule » aux environs de l'an mil.

A rich manuscript tradition has facilitated numerous studies ofAquitanian sacred music, but to date most previous research has focused on one particular facet of the repertoire, often in isolation from its cultural context. This study seeks to view Aquitanian musical culture through several intersecting sacred and secular concerns and to relate the various musical traditions to the region's broader societal forces.

For those of us who need something a little less subtle, Augustine (354-430) spells it out for us by mentioning Plato (428-3478C) and Plotinus QA5-270) on numerous occasions in his wealth of writings.
