St Martin of Tours was a protector saint of numerous French kings. His was one of the most successful saintly cults in medieval Europe, and the city of Tours functioned as a religious metropolis, drawing pilgrims from all over the continent. Until now, little has been known about how St Martin came to inspire such a lively folkloric tradition, numerous works of art, and the establishment of thousands of churches and numerous confraternities. In this book, Yossi Maurey addresses these questions by focusing on the church dedicated to the saint in Tours, which acted as the crucible for Martin's cult. Maurey explores the music and liturgy of the cult - the most effective means of its dissemination - to reveal its enormous diffusion and impact. Building a more concrete picture of how saints' cults operated and shaped medieval realities, this book also provides new insights into the interactions between contemporary religion, art and politics.

How music and liturgy naturalized the notion of sacral kingship at the Sainte-Chapelle in 13th-century Paris.00The book revolves around some of the most important relics of Christendom - chief among them the Crown of Thorns - and the ways in which they became, effectively, personal objects of devotion, notwithstanding their ostensibly universal appeal. It was France that laid claim to the Passion and other relics in the middle of the thirteenth century in a campaign that involved the construction of a new magnificent chapel - the Sainte-Chapelle - designed specifically to display the relics, and the composition of new liturgies to celebrate and focus attention on them. As inert objects, relics could not accomplish much without being ?activated? one way or the other, whether in prose, poetry, paintings, statues, or in music. It is these modes of activation that endowed the substance of relics with identity and meaning that made them so powerful and effective. The liturgies studied in this book were some of the most critical mechanisms of activation; they enabled the power of the Sainte-Chapelle relics, articulated the nature of that power, and proclaimed it far and wide. Nowhere is this more evident than in the sequences memorializing these relics, which were chiefly cultivated and championed at the Sainte-Chapelle. This book examines these sequences, and the ways in which they give prominence to the underlying agenda of the French monarchy by promoting and naturalizing the notion of sacral kingship, rooted in biblical kingship

L'histoire de bien des villes européennes a été façonnée par une ou plusieurs figures saintes dont les relations aux villes-vraies ou imaginées- ont eu des conséquences spirituelles et pratiques. La topographie de la ville, son économie, ses établissements, sa liturgie, sa réputation, et même le développement de la fierté civique des habitants, se sont forgés dans une association idiosyncratique du saint et de sa ville. La figure de l'évêque-saint, en adéquation avec ses prérogatives spirituelles et temporelles extraordinaires, représente une catégorie particulière dont ce livre a voulu tracer les contours. Le topos de la sainteté épiscopale préjuge la plupart du temps de rapports passionnels entre l'évêque et sa ville, parfois conflictuels même tant l'écart entre la sainteté vécue ou du moins ressentie peut entrer en contradiction avec une population souvent versatile mais soucieuse cependant de participer par capillarité à la sainteté de son chef de diocèse.

Music was one component of the cultural continuum that developed in the contiguous civilizations of the ancient Near East and of Greece and Rome. This book covers the range and gamut of this symbiosis, as well as scrutinizes archeological findings, texts, and iconographical materials in specific geographical areas along this continuum. The book, volume VIII of Yuval - Studies of the Jewish Music Research Centre at the Hebrew University, provides an updated scholarly assessment of the rich soundscapes of ancient civilizations.

L’intense activité littéraire, monumentale, musicale, juridique et iconographique qui anime la chrétienté latine pendant les siècles centraux du Moyen Âge a permis un tout aussi intense questionnement et un renouvellement des problématiques liées aux grands mouvements qui parcourent l’Église (dont, avant tout, la réforme dite « grégorienne »), les pouvoirs ecclésiastiques mais aussi royaux et seigneuriaux et qui s’étendent de manière ténue parfois, violente également, dans toutes les sphères de la société. La réception des enjeux de pouvoir et des conflits incessants qui parcourent la chrétienté apparaît comme un problème majeur dans cette société en pleine évolution. La longue chronologie qui s’étend sur quatre siècles permet d’en voir l’évolution, de restituer des contextes, des temps de réussites et d’échecs jusqu’à un arrêt sur image mettant en valeur à la fois une papauté qui semble victorieuse et des royautés établies capables de se tenir tête les uns aux autres et d’assurer leur légitimité face à une institution ecclésiale débarrassée des querelles impériales.
