Steadfast and Shrewd Heroines: the Defence of Chastity in the Latin Post-Nicene Passions and the Greek Novels
Steadfast and shrewd heroines: the defence of chastity in the Latin post-Nicene passions and the Greek novels ANNELIES BOSSU Ghent University 1. Introduction Over the past decades, the disparaging opinion of the Greek ‘ideal’ novels which goes back to at least Rohde’s pioneer modern study of 18761 has been abandoned: they are no longer viewed as literary inferior texts. Together with this renewed and favourable attention, research into the novels’ inter- connections with other ancient narrative texts increased. Unsurprisingly, the interplay with the Roman novel was explored. It has been argued that Petro- nius parodied the Greek novels2 and attention has been drawn to thematic and structural correspondences between the Greek novels and both Apuleius’ Metamorphoses3 and the Historia Apollonii Regis Tyri.4 Whereas the Chris- tian overtone in the latter work is debated,5 the novels’ interaction with ————— 1 Rohde 1876. 2 This thesis was first raised by Heinze in 1899 and has received wide acceptance since, see e.g. Conte 1996, esp. 31-34 on his adaptation of Heinze’s thesis. For objections against the thesis, see Morgan 2009, 40-47. 3 See e.g. the contributions of Brethes, Frangoulidis, Harrison, and Smith to Paschalis, Frangoulidis, Harrison, Zimmerman 2007. 4 See Schmeling 20032, 540-544 on both similarities and dissimilarities between the Histo- ria Apollonii (HA) and the Greek novels, especially Xenophon of Ephesus’ Ephesiaca. 5 On the HA as a Christian product, see Kortekaas 1984, 101-106, 116-118, and 2004, 17- 24, and Hexter 1988, 188. For objections against the Christian overtone, see Schmeling 20032, 531-537. -

THE ASTONISHING MISSIONARY JOURNEYS OF THE APOSTLE ANDREW George Alexandrou, international reporter, writer, and political commentator, on his thou- sand-page book in Greek, He Raised the Cross on the Ice, exploring the sources, traditions, routes and cultures of St. Andrew’s apostolate. George’s own enthusiasm and love for St. Andrew made our long months of working together more than an assignment, it became a shared pilgrimage. BEGINNINGS RTE: George, please tell us about your background and how you began this epic project of reconstructing St. Andrew’s journeys. GEORGE: Yes, but before I begin, I have to say that at certain times in my life I’ve been very blind. I can speak about the Taliban, about international pol- icy, about government leaders, but I’m not righteous enough to speak or write about St. Andrew. This is how I feel and I must say so at the beginning. My background is that I went to the university as one of the best students in Greece, but dropped out to become a hippie and a traveler, a fighter for the ecological movement, and then just an “easy rider.” When I returned to Greece, by chance, or perhaps God’s will, I turned to journalism and was Mosaic of St. Andrew, Cathedral of Holy Apostle Andrew, Patras, Greece. 3 Road to Emmaus Vol. V, No. 4 (#19) the astonishing missionary journeys of the apostle andrew quite successful. I became the director of an important Greek historical You find Greek faces in strange places all over the world. There are journal, had a rather flashy career in Cyprus as a TV news director, and descendants of Greek-Chinese in Niya, China’s Sinkiang region, as I said, traveled around the world for some major journalist associations. -

It will cover the Eastern Orthodox, Oriental Orthodox and Eastern Catholic traditions from the early through to the contemporary period. The series will make a valuable contribution to the study of Eastern Christianity by publishing research by scholars from a variety of disciplines and backgrounds. The different traditions that make up the world of Eastern Christianity have not always received the attention they deserve, so this series will provide a platform for deepening our knowledge of them as well as bringing them to a wider audience. The need for such a series has been felt for sometime by the scholarly community in view of the increasing interest in the Christian East.

MARTYRS CYRICUS AND JULITTA OF TARSUS The Holy Martyrs Cyricus and Julitta lived in the city of Iconium in the province of Lykaoneia in Asia Minor. St. Julitta was descended from an illustrious family and was a Christian. Widowed early on, she raised her son Cyricus alone. During the emperor Diocletian’s persecution of Christians, St. Julitta and 3 - year -old Cyricus departed the city, leaving behind her home, property and servants. Concealing her noble rank, she hid out first at Seleucia, and then at Tarsus. There around the year 305 she was recognized, arrested and brought to trial before the governor, Alexander. Strengthened by God, she fearlessly answered the judge and firmly confessed her faith in Christ. The governor gave orders to beat the saint with rods. During her torments, St. Julitta kept repeating, “I am a Christian, and will not offer sacrifice to demons.” The little boy cried, seeing his mother being tortured and wanted to go to her. The governor Alexander tried to sit him on his lap, but the boy broke free and shouted, “Let me go to my mother; I am a Christian.” The governor threw the boy down from the high tribunal and kicked him down the stone steps. The boy struck his head on the sharp edges and died. St. Julitta, seeing her lacerated son, gave thanks to God that He had permitted her child to be perfected before her and to receive the unfading crown of martyrdom. After many cruel tortures, St. Julitta was beheaded with a sword. The relics of Saints Cyricus and Julitta were uncovered during the reign of St. -

I further agree that permission for extensive copying of this thesis for scholarly purposes may be granted by the Head of my Department or by his representatives. It is understood that copying or publication of this thesis for financial gain shall not be allowed without my written permission. Doreen Na1os Department of FINE ARTS The University of British Columbia 2075 Wesbrook Place Vancouver, Canada V6T 1W5 Date September U . 1 976 ii ABSTRACT The decoration of the Amesbury Psalter, c.1250, is of immediate appeal because of its skilled execu• tion and the richness of its decoration. It is, moreover, interesting iconographically; the Madonna and Child page, which presents Mary as the Virgo lactans, appears to be the earliest representation of this type of Madonna which is of English proven• ance. Although the Virgo lactans is the oldest image of Mary known to us, it has never been the popular im• age of the Virgin as has been, for example, the re• presentation of the seated Hodegetria. This essay traces the history of the Virgo lactans to the cult of Isis in Egypt, explores the image of Mary expressed in theological writings through the centuries, and examines popular concepts of the Virgin portrayed in vernacular literature, and the various ways in which the Madonna and Child theme has been visually presented.
