Abstract

Saint Antony of Egypt (c. 251-356), often called "the father of monasticism," has numerous representations: the Antony of the Life of Antony and the Letters, but also the Antony of around 120 sayings or apophthegmata. This volume presents fresh English translations of the Greek and Coptic sayings, as well as the first English translation of the Copto-Arabic sayings that are based on unpublished manuscripts. The volume thus opens the door to a richer image of Saint Antony's many identities across various languages and traditions.

Abstract

Il libro descrive la storia di Sant'Antonio Abate, il grande taumaturgo ed il fondatore del monachesimo cristiano. Molto prima che ciò fosse una pratica comune tra i fedeli, egli praticò l’ascetismo nel deserto ad imitazione di Cristo e le sue tentazioni demoniache descritte nella biografia scritta da Sant’Atanasio hanno costituito il tema favorito di molti pittori ed ispirato "La Tentation de Saint Antoine" di Gustave Flaubert. Padrone del fuoco e protettore degli animali, viene spesso raffigurato con accanto una fiamma ed un maialino, ragione per cui è anche chiamato "Sant’Antonio del porcello". Egli era il santo prediletto dai contadini ed inoltre patrono dei cestai, dei porcai, dei ceramisti e di molte altre professioni, ma era famoso soprattutto per le sue capacità curative sì da divenire il santo taumaturgo per eccellenza. Pertanto, dal Medio Evo al XIX era invocato per curare le più dolorose piaghe che affliggevano l’umanità, soprattutto quelle più devastanti che furono chiamate "Fuoco di Sant’Antonio". Questo termine includeva molte malattie completamente diverse tra loro, ma che avevano in comune solo un dolore intollerabile. Tra queste, l’ergotismo, l’eresipela e l’herpes zoster sono i tre disturbi più importanti riconosciuti nei secoli. Ancora oggi, in Italia, l’herpes zoster è comunemente chiamato "Fuoco di Sant’Antonio". Di questa affascinante mistura di religione e medicina, di arte e tradizioni si legge in queste righe.

Abstract

Replacé dans une longue durée de l'imaginaire qui va du IVe siècle - celui d'Athanase qui écrivit la première Vie de saint Antoine - jusqu'à la fin du XVe siècle, avec le Mystère de saint Antoine en Viennois, en passant par les légendes dorées médiévales, saint Antoine l'ermite, « père des moines », révèle un nouveau visage. Le croisement des savoirs, faisant appel à l'anthropologie et au comparatisme, à l'histoire des idées et des croyances religieuses (pour expliquer le symbole du tau ou celui du cochon associés au saint), à l'histoire de l'art enfin (avec le témoignage d'Huysmans sur la représentation picturale des tentations), permet de scruter cette figure-clé de la «mythologie chrétienne». Ainsi, entre légende et mythe peut se définir, autour d'Antoine le mélancolique et l'initié, l'unité d'une tradition culturelle qui, par-delà les siècles et peut-être même les civilisations, fait dialoguer l'Orient et l'Occident, le texte et l'image, l'Antiquité, le Moyen Âge et la Modernité.

Abstract

"This volume provides a critical edition of the two ancient Latin translations of the Life of Antony by Athanasius of Alexandria. Shortly after the death of Egypt's most famous hermit in 356, Athanasius of Alexandria wrote the Life of Antony, a text that had an immediate as well as enduring influence on monastic life and thought. While Athanasius's vivid description of the life of Antony the Great initiated the genre of the saint's life in Christian literature, his inclusion of many of his own theological ideas also provides insight into the turbulent doctrinal disputes of the fourth century. The significance of the Life of Antony is demonstrated by its having been translated into Latin twice within two decades of its composition. The first version, prepared by an anonymous translator shortly after Athanasius completed his Greek text, provides a literal translation that is extant in only one complete manuscript. The literary translation prepared by Evagrius of Antioch in 373 was rapidly and widely transmitted throughout the Latin West. New editions of both translations are presented in this volume, with the edition of Evagrius's translation based on 28 manuscripts dating from the ninth to the eleventh century."--
