Approssimazioni alla “leggenda del legno della Croce” nell'Occitania medievale
2019
La leggenda del legno della croce è una delle storie apocrife più significative del medioevo religioso. Essa è il risultato di un lungo processo di stratificazione di racconti e motivi leggendari, e risulta declinata in versioni plurime, più o meno scorciate e interpolate. Il presente contributo indaga la diffusione della storia del lignum crucis nel contesto occitano. La scelta non è casuale; appare, anzi, necessaria. In effetti, come spesso è avvenuto per quella che può essere considerata un’appendice alla cosiddetta «eccezione narrativa» occitana, lo studio della letteratura religiosa del Midi necessita ancora di nuovi spunti d’indagine, trasversali e comparativi. Di questo soffrono anch…
Film: apokryficzne loci theologici
2019
Liczne filmy, szczególnie inspirowane Ewangelią, można odczytywać w kategoriach loci theologici. Należy przy tym pamiętać, że motywowane komercyjne zainteresowanie twórców kina tematyką biblijną ma swoje konsekwencje teologiczne. Wyzwaniem, m.in. dla teologii praktycznej, stają się wprowadzane w obieg katechetyczny filmy, które naznaczone są apokryficznością, oddalającą je od oryginalnych treści wiary. Artykuł, przywołując dawniejsze wypowiedzi Magisterium Kościoła na temat kina, zwraca uwagę na pomijanie przez kościelne nauczanie milczeniem medium filmu w ostatnich dwóch dziesięcioleciach. Realizowane głównie z powodów komercyjnych filmy poddają się również kiczowi, co wynika z dążenia do …

Some Notes on Andrapolis, the Royal City: Apocryphal Acts of Thomas 3
2021
The following paper aims to explore the meaning and significance of the so-called royal city Andrapolis (Ἀνδράπολις) within the context of the Apocryphal Acts of Thomas’ s narrative (chapter 3). The identification of this Indian toponym have attracted the attention of many scholars during the last century and nowadays again, as witness of the few reliable historical traces supposedly transmitted by the apocryphal. For doing so, after a short introduction, we deal with the allegedly historicity of the text; then, we focus on the issue related mainly to the different variants of the location depending on the Syriac and Greek versions of the Acts of Thomas, and propose a new interpretatio…
The apocryphal: prototype of a subjectivity in crisis
2013
The introduction of this paper reviews the concept of the subject, which originated in classical antiquity and developed in Western culture up to the Enlightenment and Romanticism with the addition of new aspects but without questioning its foundation as a substantial Subject. The first major crisis of this received view took place in the first quarter of the twentieth century after the assimilation of the works by Marx, Freud or Nietzsche, which laid the foundations of a thorough criticism on the subject. One important feature of this crisis was the proliferation of apocryphal writing, which reached new models in the works of Fernando Pessoa and Antonio Machado. Between them lies the scope…
Les images de la vie terrestre de la Vierge dans l'art mural (peintures et mosaïques) en France et en Italie : des origines de l’iconographie chrétie…
2012
This thesis is devoted to wall images of the Virgin’s earthly life, an iconographic sequence composed of the young Mary’s history and episodes from Christ’s life which are related to the Virgin, until Pentecost. This research comes within the extended framework from the early Christian art to the Council of Trent. It is based on an abundant iconographic documentation which includes more than 2300 pictures, wall paintings and mosaics, preserved in France and Italy. The first part of the thesis is dedicated to the quantitative analysis of the iconographic documentation, according to a triple point of view. A thematic analysis identifies three phases in the chronological sequence of the Virgin…
Schiavi, poveri e benefattori nell’Anatolia tardoantica: la visione socio-economica delle comunità enkratite attraverso gli atti apocrifi degli apost…
2015
Different sources (epigrahical, literary, apocryphal) can be used to analyse the Christian heretical sects connected to an enkratite movement (Enkratites, Apotactites, Sakkophoroi, Hydroparastatai, Aerians), which was characterised by radical forms of self-restraint (enkrateia). Epigraphical documents are helpful in setting these communities in the rural background of late antique Anatolia (4th-5th cent. AD). On the other side the apocryphal acts of the apostles – specially the so called Acta Petri from the Codex Vercellensis and the Acta Philippi – offer important hints on social and economic ideas developed by Enkratites, in particular concerning the most debated issues of evangelic pover…

Non sono atti degli apostoli ma scritti demoniaci. Il movimento enkratita nell’Anatolia tardoantica: iscrizioni, eresiologi e testi apocrifi
2017
Different sources (epigraphical, literary, apocryphal) can be used to analyse the Christian heretical sects connected to an enkratite movement (Enkratites, Apotactites, Sakkophoroi, Hydroparastatai, Aerians), which was characterised by radical forms of self-restraint (enkrateia). Epigraphical documents are helpful in setting these communities in the rural background of late antique Anatolia (4th-5th cent. AD). On the other side the apocryphal acts of the apostles offer important hints on social and economic ideas developed by Enkratites and throw new light on their specific Christian Weltanschauung.
