Au commencement était le verbe du Christ : "Bienheureux ceux qui pleurent, car ils seront consolés." De cette parole fondatrice nait le don des larmes, figure historique et vivante de la valorisation chrétienne des pleurs. Dès ses débuts, le christianisme recommande de pleurer pour purifier son âme ; au Moyen Âge, nombreux sont les hommes et les femmes qui versent des larmes abondantes et douces ou aspirent à la grâce divine des pleurs. Comment les mots de Jésus ont-ils pu engendrer ces pratiques ? Comment les pleurs, traditionnellement attachés à l'expression de la tristesse et de la douleur, ont-ils pu devenir un signe de béatitude, un véritable charisme ? C'est cette force créatrice et interprétative du christianisme qu'interroge Piroska Nagy, à partir des sources de l'Antiquité tardive et du Moyen Âge. Comme le sujet comporte bien des paradoxes, nous en découvrons les multiples formes et interprétations : depuis les pleurs de la souffrance ascétique jusqu'à ceux du désir-amour du ciel ou même jusqu'à la béatitude momentanément atteinte. Loin d'être une histoire des sensibilités, la pratique à la fois spirituelle et corporelle des pleurs religieux se comprend au sein de l'histoire intellectuelle des chrétiens médiévaux, qui l'inscrit dans une anthropologie, une théologie et une ecclésiologie. Cette traversée de neuf siècles d'histoire du christianisme nous permet de comprendre que le Moyen Âge occidental n'a pas pleuré davantage que les autres époques, mais que les larmes y revêtaient un sens spirituel dont l'usage semble s'être perdu depuis. Piroska Nagy est maître de conférences d'histoire du Moyen Âge à l'Université de Rouen.

Que peut-on savoir de la vie affective du Moyen Âge ? Sur ce sujet longtemps négligé, les sources sont pourtant nombreuses : la littérature profane et spirituelle, l’iconographie, les chroniques, mais aussi la théologie et la médecine nous livrent mille indices sur la place des émotions dans la vie sociale.De la colère d’un puissant à l’indignation du petit peuple, de la honte démonstrative d’une sainte à la crainte de la honte d’un grand, de l’amitié entre moines à la souffrance à l’imitation du Christ, de l’enthousiasme d’un groupe de croisés à la peur d’une ville entière face à la guerre ou à la peste qui approche, les exemples sont multiples. L’émotion n’est pas l’expression d’une confusion des esprits ni d’un chaos des règles sociales. Tous ces éclats de joie et de douleur, signes d’une humanité entière, produisent du sens qui ne se comprend que dans son contexte. Tout au long du millénaire médiéval, un modèle chrétien d’affectivité, élaboré à petite échelle dans les laboratoires monastiques, se construit, se répand, pénètre la société, tout en interagissant avec d’autres modèles, déjà présents ou en voie de construction parallèle, comme celui de la culture de cour.L'émotion au Moyen Âge irrigue les relations sociales, dans une diversité d’interprétations et une vitalité culturelle qui impressionnent.Damien Boquet est maître de conférences à l’université Aix-Marseille. Il a notamment publié L’Ordre de l’affect au Moyen Âge (CRAHM, 2005).Piroska Nagy, professeure à l’Université du Québec à Montréal, est l’auteure de Le Don des larmes au Moyen Âge (Albin Michel, 2000).Les deux historiens codirigent le projet de recherche EMMA, Émotions au Moyen Âge (http://emma.hypotheses.org).

Between the middle of the eighth century and the late ninth century in western Europe, the course of legal history was shaped by interaction with religious ideas, especially with regard to the meaning of confession, suffering, and the balance of protections for an accused individual and the welfare of the community. This book traces those themes through a selection of Carolingian texts, such as archbishop Hincmar's legal analysis of a royal divorce, the decrees of church councils, the biography of a Saxon holy woman, anti-Judaic treatises, and Hrotswitha's dramatisation of the legend of Thaïs, in order to make audible the lively debates over the boundaries of clerical and lay authority, the nature and extent of permissible intervention in the spiritual condition of the empire's inhabitants, and distinctions between the private and public domains. This work thus reveals the profound relation between law and penitential ideologies promoted by the Carolingian imperial court.

Medieval Christianity in Practice provides readers with a sweeping look at the religious practices of the European Middle Ages. Comprising forty-two selections from primary source materials--each translated with an introduction and commentary by a specialist in the field--the collection illustrates the religious cycles, rituals, and experiences that gave meaning to medieval Christian individuals and communities. This volume of Princeton Readings in Religions assembles sources reflecting different genres, regions, and styles, including prayer books, chronicles, diaries, liturgical books, sermons, hagiography, and handbooks for the laity and clergy. The texts represent the practices through which Christians conducted their individual, family, and community lives, and explores such life-cycle events as birth, confirmation, marriage, sickness, death, and burial. The texts also document religious practices related to themes of work, parish life, and devotions, as well as power and authority. Enriched by expert analysis and suggestions for further reading, Medieval Christianity in Practice gives students and general readers alike the necessary background and foundations for an appreciation of the creativity and multiplicity of medieval Christian religious culture.

What do we know of the emotional life of the Middle Ages? Though a long-neglected subject, a multitude of sources – spiritual and secular literature, iconography, chronicles, as well as theological and medical works – provide clues to the central role emotions played in medieval society. In this work, historians Damien Boquet and Piroska Nagy delve into a rich variety of texts and images to reveal the many and nuanced experiences of emotion during the Middle Ages – from the demonstrative shame of a saint to a nobleman's fear of embarrassment, from the enthusiasm of a crusading band to the fear of a town threatened by the approach of war or plague. Boquet and Nagy show how these outbursts of joy and pain, while universal expressions, must be understood within the specific context of medieval society. During the Middle Ages, a Christian model of affectivity was formed in the ‘laboratory’ of the monasteries, one which gradually seeped into wider society, interacting with the sensibilities of courtly culture and other forms of expression. Bouqet and Nagy bring a thousand years of history to life, demonstrating how the study of emotions in medieval society can also allow us to understand better our own social outlooks and customs.

In Medieval Allegory as Epistemology, Marco Nievergelt argues that late medieval dream-poetry was able to use the tools of allegorical fiction to explore a set of complex philosophical questions regarding the nature of human knowledge. The focus is on three of the most widely read and influential poems of the later Middle Ages: Jean de Meun's Roman de la Rose; the Pélerinages trilogy of Guillaume de Deguileville; and William Langland's vision of Piers Plowman in its various versions. All three poets grapple with a collection of shared, closely related epistemological problems that emerged in Western Europe during the thirteenth century, in the wake of the reception of the complete body of Aristotle's works on logic and the natural sciences. This study therefore not only examines the intertextual and literary-historical relations linking the work of the three poets, but takes their shared interest in cognition and epistemology as a starting point to assess their wider cultural and intellectual significance in the context of broader developments in late medieval philosophy of mind, knowledge, and language. Vernacular literature more broadly played an extremely important role in lending an enlarged cultural resonance to philosophical ideas developed by scholastic thinkers, but it is also shown that allegorical narrative could prompt philosophical speculation on its own terms, deliberately interrogating the dominance and authority of scholastic discourses and institutions by using first-person fictional narrative as a tool for intellectual speculation.

Demonic possession was a spiritual state that often had physical symptoms; however, in Demonic Possession and Lived Religion in Later Medieval Europe, Sari Katajala-Peltomaa argues that demonic possession was a social phenomenon which should be understood with regard to the community and culture. She focuses on significant case studies from canonization processes (c. 1240-1450) which show how each set of sources formed its own specific context, in which demonic presence derived from different motivations, reasonings, and methods of categorization. The chosen perspective is that of lived religion, which is both a thematic approach and a methodology: a focus on rituals, symbols, and gestures, as well as sensitivity to nuances and careful contextualizing of the cases are constitutive elements of the argumentation. The analysis contests the hierarchy between the 'learned' and the 'popular' within religion, as well as the existence of a strict polarity between individual and collective religious participation. Demonic presence disclosed negotiations over authority and agency; it shows how the personal affected the communal, and vice versa, and how they were eventually transformed into discourses and institutions of the Church; that is, definitions of the miraculous and the diabolical. Geographically, the volume covers Western Europe, comparing Northern and Southern material and customs. The structure follows the logic of the phenomenon, beginning with the background reasons offered as a cause of demonic possession, continuing with communities' responses and emotions, including construction of sacred caregiving methods. Finally, the ways in which demonic presence contributed to wider societal debates in the fields of politics and spirituality are discussed. Alterity and inversion of identity, gender, and various forms of corporeality and the interplay between the sacred and diabolical are themes that run all through the volume.

Sacred and profane, public and private, emotive and ritualistic, internal and embodied, medieval weeping served as a culturally charged prism for a host of social, visual, cognitive, and linguistic performances. Crying in the Middle Ages addresses the place of tears in Jewish, Christian, and Islamic cultural discourses, providing a key resource for scholars interested in exploring medieval notions of emotion, gesture, and sensory experience in a variety of cultural contexts. Gertsman brings together essays that establish a series of conversations with one another, foregrounding essential questions about the different ways that crying was seen, heard, perceived, expressed, and transmitted throughout the Middle Ages. In acknowledging the porous nature of visual and verbal evidence, this collection foregrounds the necessity to read language, image, and experience together in order to envision the complex notions of medieval crying.
