Abstract

Le site étrusco-romain de Musarna, quelques kilomètres à l’ouest de Viterbe, a fait l’objet d’une enquête systématique sur la cité, son enceinte, ses nécropoles et son territoire dans le cadre d’une collaboration entre la Surintendance archéologique pour l’Étrurie méridionale et l’École française de Rome entre 1983 et 2003. Ce troisième volume présente le dossier relatif à un groupe de tombes d’époque impériale. Les 209 tombes publiées constituent un groupe homogène de sépultures aménagées principalement entre le début du IIe siècle et le premier quart du IIIe à l’extérieur de l’enceinte de la cité, dans un espace funéraire qui semble avoir été l’objet d’une gestion collective. La nécropole impériale de Musarna confirme ainsi le développement au IIe siècle de véritables aires funéraires par contraste avec les voies sépulcrales le long desquelles sont disposées les tombes. Les deux rites, incinération et inhumation, ont été pratiqués simultanément à Musarna au début de la période d’utilisation de la nécropole, mais l’incinération est très minoritaire. Le mobilier funéraire est relativement modeste et présente un faciès tout-à-fait comparable à celui des nécropoles du suburbium de Rome.

Abstract

"For too long, the study of religious life in Late Antiquity has relied on the premise that Jews, pagans, and Christians were largely discrete groups divided by clear markers of belief, ritual, and social practice. More recently, however, a growing body of scholarship is revealing the degree to which identities in the late Roman world were fluid, blurred by ethnic, social, and gender differences. Christianness, for example, was only one of a plurality of identities available to Christians in this period. In Christians and Their Many Identities in Late Antiquity, North Africa, 200-450 CE, Éric Rebillard explores how Christians in North Africa between the age of Tertullian and the age of Augustine were selective in identifying as Christian, giving salience to their religious identity only intermittently. By shifting the focus from groups to individuals, Rebillard more broadly questions the existence of bounded, stable, and homogeneous groups based on Christianness. In emphasizing that the intermittency of Christianness is structurally consistent in the everyday life of Christians from the end of the second to the middle of the fifth century, this book opens a whole range of new questions for the understanding of a crucial period in the history of Christianity"--Publisher's Web site.

Abstract

From Eusebius of Caesarea, who first compiled a collection of martyr narratives around 300, to Thierry Ruinart, whose Acta primorum martyrum sincera et selecta was published in 1689, the selection and study of early hagiographic narratives has been founded on an assumption that there existed documents written at the time of martyrdom, or very close to it. As a result, a search for authenticity has been and continues to be central, even in the context of today's secular scholarship. But, as Éric Rebillard contends, the alternative approach, to set aside entirely the question of the historical reliability of martyr narratives, is not satisfactory either. Instead, he argues that martyr narratives should be consider as fluid "living texts," written anonymously and received by audiences not as precise historical reports but as versions of the story. In other words, the form these texts took, between fact and fiction, made it possible for audiences to readily accept the historicity of the martyr while at the same time not expect to hear or read a truthful account.In The Early Martyr Narratives, Rebillard considers only accounts of Christian martyrs supposed to have been executed before 260, and only those whose existence is attested in sources that can be dated to before 300. The resulting small corpus contains no texts in the form of legal protocols, traditionally viewed as the earliest, most official and authentic records, nor does it include any that can be dated to a period during which persecution of Christians is known to have taken place. Rather than deduce from this that they are forgeries written for the sake of polemic or apologetic, Rebillard demonstrates how the literariness of the narratives creates a fictional complicity that challenges and complicates any claims of these narratives to be truthful.

Abstract

Cette étude sur les chrétiens d'Afrique du Nord dans l'Antiquité tardive contredit l'idée largement répandue selon laquelle les communautés religieuses représentaient des groupes clairement délimités. En fait, les identités étaient fluides, multiples, brouillées par les différences ethniques, sociales et sexuelles. Pour les chrétiens d'alors, la christianité n'est qu'une identité parmi d'autres. ©Electre 2015

Abstract

To understand the past, we necessarily group people together and, consequently, frequently assume that all of its members share the same attributes. In this ground-breaking volume, Eric Rebillard and Jörg Rüpke bring renowned scholars together to challenge this norm by seeking to rediscover the individual and to explore the dynamics between individuals and the groups to which they belong.
