草原上的文物宝库-内蒙古博物馆

“敕勒川,阴山下,天似穹庐,笼盖四野。天苍苍,野茫茫,风吹草低见牛羊”。这首古老的《敕勒歌》,描绘的是1500多年前阴山南麓草原（今内蒙古土默特平原）的苍莽景色。岁月悠悠,星移斗转,如今,敕勒川上早已建起了青色的城——呼和浩特（蒙古语“青城”之意）。在这座城市的街心花园旁边,有一座乳白色的古典式三层楼房,楼顶上有一匹昂首奔腾的骏马雕像,每天都有许多游人走进大楼里,他们乘兴而来,满意而归,并且在典雅的白楼前摄影留念。这座建筑,就是被称为“草原上文物宝库”的内蒙古博物馆（图一）。内蒙古博物馆成立于1957年…     

The remains of the saints: the evidence of early medieval relic collections

This article explores the materiality of early medieval devotion to the saints. It argues that, even though most of the material objects themselves no longer survive, there is nevertheless much to be gleaned from surviving caches of relic labels about what churches believed they possessed. It exploits the same evidence to explore how types of relic‐objects changed over time, track evidence for the importance of oral tradition in their formation, and identify pathways of circulation. In demonstrating how churches curated the relics in their care, it pinpoints the active participation of scribes and relic custodians in interpreting and re‐interpreting them.

从巴德伊舍到圣沃尔夫冈

<正>在奥地利,早上我们告别哈尔施塔特,乘坐渡轮,驶过湖面,对岸的山坡上有个小小的火车站,或许是我见过的最小的火车站:只有一条铁路线,一侧靠着山壁,不容人站立,另一侧的站台也不过四五米,临着哈尔施塔特湖,中间窄窄地挤出了一间工作室,同时也是售票室和候车室。这里终日不见铁路公司的工作人员,却收拾得很是整洁,一部自动售票机提供全部服务,室外还开着一丛鲜艳的花。     

St Odo's St Martin: the uses of a model

The ideal of sanctity presented in Sulpicius Severus' Vita Martini included a repudiation of military life. Sulpicius was concerned to show that Martin was a true ‘man of power’ (potens), but this had nothing to do with the army. On the contrary, in Sulpicius' day, the potens was, in the political sphere, a decidedly civilian patron; in the religious sphere he was a miracle-worker. Six hundred years later the attributes of power were no longer the same. Social and political changes had worked to transform the ‘man of power’ into a warrior. The old ideal remained, however; its reactionary effects were evident in several Cluniac texts, where exemplary men were shown leaving the tumult of the battlefield for the discipline of the monastery. Yet within that same tenth-century Clumiac milieu an entirely different pattern of sointhood, that of the holy warrior, was created by St Odo, the second abbot of Cluny. It was a model quite unprecedented in the West, but it was not created new out of whole cloth. Rather, this new persona was patterned on the same old form. Its explanation seems to lay precisely in Odo's literal adherence to the old paradigm, but understood in the light of the changes which had taken place in the role of the potens.     

Devotion to St James and family identity: the Thurns of Salzburg

Miles or knight referred in twelfth-century Salzburg to a servile retainer of a ministerial or noble. In the thirteenth century the knights coalesced with the lesser ministerials, who were the vassals of the great ministerial lineages, to form the estate of knights, the lowest strata of the Salzburg nobility. The Thurns are an example of lesser ministerials who belonged to the estate of knights and who rose to prominence in the thirteenth century by serving the archbishops of Salzburg. The founder of the lineage's fortunes was Werner I of Lengfelden (1230–1268), the master of the archbishop's kitchen, who built St Jakob am Thurn, south of Salzburg. The distinguishing characteristic of the lineage was its devotion to the Apostle James, a saint associated with knighthood. The Thurns adopted Jakob as their leading name, built the church of St James next to their tower, St Jakob am Thurn, and the church of St James in Faistenau, and were buried in the chapel of St James in Salzburg, which they endowed.
