Abstract

Using light as fil rouge reuniting theology and ritual with the architecture, decoration, and iconography of cultic spaces, the present study argues that the mise-en-scène of fifth-century baptism and sixth-century episcopal liturgy was meant to reproduce the luminous atmosphere of heaven. Analysing the material culture of the two sacraments against common ritual expectations and Christian theology, we evince the mannerin which the luminous effect was reached through a combination of constructive techniques and perceptual manipulation. One nocturnal and one diurnal, the two ceremonials represented different scenarios, testifying to the capacity of church builders and willingness of Late Antique bishops to stage the ritual experience in order to offer God to the senses.

Abstract

Paulin de Nole († 431) est l'un des poètes les plus prolifiques d'une génération florissante, et s'y distingue parce qu'il fait particulièrement le lien entre la poésie d'inspiration profane, "classiques", que représente son maître et ami Ausone, et l'avènement de la poésie d'inspiration chrétienne dont il est, avec son contemporain Prudence, l'un des premiers représentants. Son œuvre poétique, dont plus de la moitié est constitué par le cycle des poèmes anniversaires à saint Félix, est un corpus particulièrement varié, bien que composé dans l'espace relativement bref par rapport à la vie de l'auteur d'une vingtaine d'années.

Abstract

The heart of this book is a reading of the letters of Paulinus of Nola, aristocratic convert to Christianity of the late fourth‐century, and his correspondents, most notably St Augustine of Hippo. We begin with an analysis of letter writing in late antiquity; we investigate the letters as traces of fuller historical events, emphasize the importance of the letter carriers, and conclude that the letters have a sacramental function. The notion of spiritual community created and sustained by the letters is explored through discussions of Christian friendship, and of the patterns of imagistic thought which facilitate the spiritual interpretation of mundane events. Finally, we demonstrate how Paulinus’ notion of spiritual community leads to a novel conception of the self as truly relational. The impact of these letters, and of the epistolary mode, on the formation of Christian ways of life and thought is extraordinary.
