Literatuurstudie Priscillianus & Mondoñedo

2011-08-26T14:29:00.000-07:00

Ergens meen ik gelezen te hebben dat Priscillianus van Trier naar Mondoñedo is gebracht. Naar aanleiding van “ Re: are St. James' relics really held in Santiago's cathedral by TerryB on August 26th, 2011, 3:16 pm: ‘As a blunt, down to earth Yorkshireman, I do like to know what is what! So, I have done some digging around as well as reading through the book by Henry Chadwick, recognised as an authority on early church history. As far as possible I have verified these 'facts' from his primary sources available on the web (I do not have a Reader's Card for the Bodliean Library!) and I believe they are a reasonable statement of what we know about the historical Priscillian. I have put fuller details, quotes from primary sources and futher reading on the web at:-‘ http://www.ruralmatters.org.uk/camino_de_santiago/priscillian.html “ heb ik er weer naar gezocht maar het nog niet teruggevonden. Wordt dus hopelijk vervolgd. Hierbij de vorderingen in Mondoñedo and Priscillian.doc van 26-8-2011:

http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bretones_en_Galicia_y_Asturias - Ad sedem Britonorum ecclesias que sut intro Britones una cum monasterio Maximi et que in Asturiis sunt. La sede de Britonia siguió estando representada en los múltiples concilios que se celebraron entre los siglos VI y VIII en Toledo. Durante el siglo IX, San Martiño de Mondoñedo, presumiblemente el monasterio Máximo sufre el abandono debido a las incursiones normandas lo que propicia que el obispado de Dumio se traslade allÍ, con el abad Sabarico a la cabeza y el beneplácito del rey Alfonso III. En el año 1112, finalmente, la sede diocesana se lleva a Mondoñedo.

http://pilgrim.peterrobins.co.uk/santiago/British_Galicia.html - met dank aan Peter Robins: “The best-documented link between the British and a 'Brit' placename is however Bretoña, described in a series of ecclesiastical documents from the C6 onwards. Put briefly, these document a British see, churches and a monastery (ad sedem Britonorum ecclesias que sunt intro Britones una cum monasterio Maximi) and one Mailoc, bishop of this see (Mahiloc Britonensis ecclesiae episcopus). This documentation is well summarised in a booklet Historia de Bretoña by Antonio García y García, Emeritus Professor at the Pontificia University in Salamanca, and published by the Diputación in Lugo, though unfortunately now out of print. There's a review in English on the Heroic Age website by Simon Young, a British researcher who has taken an interest in the subject. The latter has set up a website (also available here; this includes an extensive bibliography) and written a book Britonia: Camiños novos (in Galician; see review on website of the Breton-Galician twinning organisation, though 'Comme chacun sait' is stretching it a bit; 'Comme presque personne sait' would be more like it!); an item of his summarising the position appeared in History Today.

- Besides these specialist works, more general works on Galicia and the British also mention Bretoña: R.A.Fletcher's study of Diego Gelmírez St James' Catapult does so and is now available online at the American LIBRO site (see Chapter 1 and search for 'brit'); a good recent summary of our knowledge of the British in general, which includes the Galician settlements, is Christopher A. Snyder's The Britons (Blackwell, 2003 - interview with author at Oxbow Books). There are quite a few Bretoña-related websites around: the Diputacion have some info in their list of municipalities; see also Pangalaica and Galicia Espallada; there is a yearly Lugnasad festival in Bretoña parish: see here and here; and there's a tradition that Maeloc's treasure is buried on the nearby mountain of Cornería (see Barreiros site) - a story that bears more than a passing resemblance to British legends.

- The presence of a British settlement in Galicia, based in Bretoña where it reoccupied an existing castro, is thus well documented. We do not know when the Britons arrived, though the presence of a see in 569 and its participation in the Council at Braga implies that the community was already well established by that time. García y García states that S Martin's monastery at Dumio was organised on Celtic lines; it's tempting to speculate that this was due to the influence of the British colony - where else would a Celtic church influence have come from? Or was this founded by another British colony? Was this why the Citania was named 'Briteiros'? Though we do not know how widespread the British community at Bretoña was, the diocese appears to have been quite large and extended into what is now Asturias. Although the see was destroyed by the Moors in 716, and later moved to S Martin de Mondoñedo and in the C12 to Mondoñedo itself, references to Britons continue for several hundred years. Simon Young raises the interesting possibility of a Brythonic-speaking people in Galicia as late as the C13 - after the Liber Sancti Jacobi.

- Nor is that quite the end of the British-Galician ecclesiastical links: substantial trade links between Britain and Galicia continued throughout the Middle Ages, supplemented by the transport of pilgrims to Santiago, and in 1555 a London merchant named John Dutton brought an image of the Virgin from St Paul's Cathedral (where it was in danger of being destroyed by Protestant iconoclasts) to . . . yes, Mondoñedo, where it continues to be venerated to this day, though as La Inglesa not La Britoña!

- Although you would think that Galicia and Britain were too distant to matter very much to the early Church in Rome, this is far from the case. In a curious parallel between these outposts of the Roman Empire, both had charismatic church leaders whom Rome felt threatened by and declared heretical: Priscillian in Galicia and Pelagius in Britain. And when Rome decided that the Anglo-Saxons should be converted, it sent a special envoy, Augustine: Britain was obviously too important to leave to the British church. Galicia of course became one of the leading pilgrimage centres in Christendom. How deliciously ironic if, as some maintain, the shrine in fact houses the remains of the heretic Priscillian!”

King on Priscillian

Volume I

- Galicia was the stronghold of Priscillians;

- Priscillians, Friends of God

- the great grammar of Priscian,

Volume II

- Isidore had good reason for his warning about perfect virginity of body and soul, though the address is entirely in the manner of the early church, and the Priscillian practice.

- Very [I HISPANIC NOTES THE WAY 237] early we find traces of alliances, first between Galicia and Astorga, in the Priscillian persecutions, then between Compostella and Oviedo, between Leon and Toledo.

Volume III

- The reader recalls here, realizing how all the land must be full of wandering ghosts, that Priscillianism, of which Galicia was [AND MONOGRAPHS I 238 WAY OF S.JAMES] the very source and stronghold, is thought to have been much concerned with the transmigration of souls; no wonder, since the adepts must have been cognizant of them on every side, with every breath ; and recalls as well, wondering if the good Cura's word was a last reflection of it, the theory of Origen that the souls of men in the world are only a rebirth, another chance, granted to the unhappy angels, quel cattivo coro degli angeli che non furon ribellin& fur fideli a Dio, ma per se fero. 30

- A Visigothic king set up his capital at Tuy, and no word is bad enough for him in the ecclesiastical histories. To the sect of Priscillian, or, more truly, to his way of thinking and reform, belonged the whole north-west in the fifth century. There is an odd phrase of Mgr. Duchesne's 3 which seems to suggest that on the worship of S. James and his seven disciples the passionate devotion to Priscillian and the seven martyrs of Priscillianism had some bearing. At the Council of Toledo in 400 the bishop of Astorga never gave him up, 4 the Gallegans went on mostly , living in schism, dissociated from the rest of Christianity, as later they were to be adherents of Peter of Luna and other Anti-Popes.

- S. Toribio, whom we have met on the Pass of Rabanal, as he came back from the Holy Land with relics some time before 440, 2 was very active against the Priscillianists and denounced them as reading the Acts of S. Thomas, S. Andrew, and S. John, and with these the Memorials of Apostles, which are not otherwise known.

- In the Acts of Philip, when S. Philip is in the role of S. James, Christ appears in the Ikeness and twin of S. Philip. 3 x Priscillian knew this twin of ol Christ's: "Ait Juda apostolus clamans ille didymus domini". 3 2 As one of the Sons of Thunder, of course S. James was a twin, and again we have to thank Rendel Harris for all the instances of the twin-child that is the Lightning's child: 33 S. John was the twin brother to S. James, but S. John was otherwise disposed of. He lived to be very old, his place was Ephesus: S. John in Ephesus, S. Peter in Rome, S. James in Compostella, was an idea familiar to the twelfth century in Galicia, and doubtless elsewhere and earlier: so the world was distributed, east and west and in Italy. Therefore S. James must have another twin: and was he not [AND MONO GRAPHS 346 -One goes to the underworld - Evidence from Iconography - WAY OF S.JAMES] already, in Canonical Scripture, the Brother of the Lord? The mortal twin, the chthonian power, is S. James: the divine, in heaven, is Jesus: but on the baldachin at Compostella S. James ruled.

Faces in the London Pórtico de la Gloria

All these faces are cut out of pictures of the plaster copy in the Victoria & Albert Museum at London of the Pórtico de la Gloria in Saint James's cathedral at Santiago de Compostela in Spain. Courtesy and © (permission given on 22-5-9) of Mr. Gareth Thomas who took al of these photos on the eve of his pilgrimage from England through France to Santiago. Also see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yz_kusZqrLQ .

You may read more about the making of these pictures and Gareth's pilgrimage in Re: The Santiago Enigma by Gareth Thomas on March 29th, 2008, 11:37 pm on http://www.pilgrimage-to-santiago.com/board/miscellaneous-about-santiago/topic3794.html#p20890 .

This was followed by reactions on The Santiago Enigma like:
http://www.pilgrimage-to-santiago.com/board/miscellaneous-about-santiago/topic3794-25.html#p21219 and

http://www.pilgrimage-to-santiago.com/board/miscellaneous-about-santiago/topic3794-25.html#p21968 .

You may notice first Daniel’s vivid and human face and then the spiritual and similar faces of the Christ in Majesty and both James’s (Major and Minor). These pictures make it obvious that Master Mateo had a purpose or a mission, if not a direct order from his bishop to create these clear similarities.

Did anyone ever read or hear about Mateo's iconographic program for the Pórtico de la Gloria at Compostela?

Nieuw!

For the first time, more foreign pilgrims [in Santiago de Compostela]

La Voz de Galicia reports today [January 30th, 2008] that for the first time since statistics where collected in 1985 that there are more foreigners receiving the compostela than Spaniards. The article focuses on the fact that last year, 58.700 foreigners recieved the compostela and “only” 55 326 Spaniards. The articles also mentions that pilgrims from 121 countries received the compostela in 2007.

HISPANIC NOTES AND MONOGRAPHS I

Zie onderaan deze lange pagina het FOREWORD om een indruk te krijgen. Mevrouw King was in alle opzichten een klasse apart. Nog lang nadat haar collega's dat niet meer deden droeg zij nog haar zwarte toga. Ze doceerde uit het hoofd en in een geheel verduisterd lokaal opdat haar studenten geen notities konden maken. Het bijzondere taalgebruik vormt een belangrijk aspect van de onweerstaanbare charme van haar meesterwerk. Ik ben er als een blok voor gevallen.

BOOK TWO: THE WAY band 2: hoofdstukken IX - XVI
BOOK THREE: THE BOURNE band 3: hoofdstukken I - VII
BOOK FOUR: HOMEWARD band 3: hoofdstukken I - III

Het werk bestaat uit (foto) drie aparte in een linnen omslag ingebonden banden, elk iets groter dan een pocketbook, maar toch passend in de binnenzak. Deze 3 banden omvatten samen 31 hoofdstukken in samen 4 boeken (BOOKS).

BOOK ONE en de 1e helft van BOOK TWO zitten samen in band 1. Band 2 omvat slechts de 2e helft van BOOK TWO. BOOK THREE en BOOK FOUR staan samen in band 3.

Elk boek (maar niet elke band - dat maakt het een beetje ingewikkeld) heeft rubrieken als Appendix, Bibliography, Illustrations en Notes, waar de paginanummering opnieuw begint.

FOREWORD

During my stay in Rome of two years and a half, I employed all the spare time I had from Books and Libraries in viewing the Monuments; and I at last prescribed to myself a certain Method in making my Observations so as to go through the whole City in twenty Days. This same I repeated as often as either at the Request of my Friends or for my own Satisfaction I surveyed the city, always allotting twenty Days to review the whole. -- Père Montfaucon.

FOLLOWING the precedent of the learned Benedictine, I have made one straight story out of three years' wanderings, and places visited and revisited. The outcome offers, first, a record of what exists, where other accounts are incomplete or inaccessible, and, secondly, an explanation of it. Spain is a long way off, and pictures are not always explicit. It has taken seven years of my life. The writer's contribution, in particular, is first, a record and interpretation of iconographic detail all along the way, e. g., at Leyre from observation, at Santiago from Aymery Picaud's account; second, an attempt to date, by comparison with such dated examples as exist, without any à priori; third and last, an occasional small hypothesis and the ground for it, e. g., about the original west front at Compostella, and the cult of Santiago. The general intention is stated at length in the first chapter; briefly, it was to discover and record the evidence of Spain's debt in architecture to other countries, France in especial, during the Middle Age. By contrast with the French style which came in along the Camino francés, it was necessary to define the Spanish styles which that supplanted or modified, and was swallowed up in at last: this must justify the consideration given twice or thrice to earlier churches on sites now occupied, especially to the earlier sanctuaries of the Apostle. At Leon Sr. Lampérez had already made such a study. The intention being to supplement his work and Street's great book, not to compete with them, repetition of what Street had published is avoided and, in consequence, only a single aspect of each of the great cathedrals can figure here. To deal adequately with any one, would want a book at least as large as this. [Drawing from Street’s book; see http://king-early-days.blogspot.com & http://king-renaissance.blogspot.com –gb]

For those who desire to secure facts while avoiding the context, a very careful Index is supplied. This makes it possible for the learned to look up a church unmolested by the dust of the highway, and even the learned may care to look into the pages for some of the churches which are, so far as may be ascertained, hitherto unpublished: of these are Torres, Barbadelo, Puerto Marin. The writer has looked into a good many old books and not a few remote and distinguished periodicals. The excursus into what may seem the field of comparative literature, indispensable to the argument, was long, laborious, and scrupulously at first hand. The religions of the Roman Empire were investigated in competent and first-rate authorities, which are enumerated in the bibliography. Cursor Mundi is cited so often, though an English work, because it is precisely what it calls itself, a Pilgrim of the World, that has gathered up an immense quantity of current and floating lore, and represents just what might be in the head of any stonecutter or master of the works. It is a popular and plebian substitute for Vincent and Honorius. The Bibliography represents not the books consulted but those which yielded matter of worth, -- a very small proportion. In the Appendix are printed a few pièces juslificatifs: quotations in verse or others too long for a footnote; the Grande Chanson des Pèlerins, the Great and the Little Hymn of S. James and his Miracles out of the Acta Sanctorum, the Miracles of our Lady of Villa-Sirga out of the Cantigas del Rey Sabio, Thurkill's Vision, and a selection of Itineraries for the curious stay-at-home.

Possibly it will be said that this little book is neither one thing nor the other, for it offers archaeology without jargon, and travel without flippancy. The writer's hope is that the learning, however small, may be judged sound, and the style not unworthy of it in being the ordinary vehicle, which is the daily speech of cultivated people: and that some worth and some pleasure may consist in the exact account of what was done and seen with the sense and in the light of a whole history and literature yet palpable and precious, though less familiar to the gentle reader than the immortal ambience of the Lombard plain and the hill-towns of Tuscany. To pay the gratitude I owe to all who have helped me would take too long a list: it would begin with the great S. James himself, with the good Companion of many days, with a great and generous lover of Spain; and end with the long suffering guardians of books in many libraries, the good-tempered boys and girls who fetched and carried dusty piles, and the outraged librarians who despatched too many tiresome loans by post. Some names however may not be omitted, nor may I leave unsaid my thanks, for untiring and learned assistance, to the Reverend Father Middleton of Villanova College, who has answered questions intricate and importunate; to Dr. Wright and Dr. Patch of Bryn Mawr College, who have read a number of chapters in manuscript, and bettered them, and Dr. Frank and Dr. Barton who have answered demands sudden and surprising; to D. Juan Agapito y Revilla, the Vallasoletan architect and ecclesiologist, for precious time spared to me and the gift of publications, some otherwise unattainable; to my friend D. Angel del Castillo of Corunna for other articles and specific advice and instruction simply invaluable; to D. Benito Fernández Alonso, of the Commission of Historic Monuments in Orense, for many courtesies and gifts; also to Mgr. Ragonesi, the Apostolic Nuncio in Spain; to the Archbishops of Santiago and Burgos and the Bishop of Leon; to the Dean and Chapter ef Santiago and the Abbess of Las Huelgas; to the Canónigo Fabriquero of Mondoñedo and the Canónigo Archivero of Santiago, and D. Felix Ararás, Canónigo Magistral of Burgos: and to twoscore parish priests who without a single exception offered me of their best, from erudition down to new milk, to the glory, in the grand phrase of one of them -- to the glory of religion and of Spain.
G. King. BRYN MAWR, All Souls' Day, 1917.

The illustrations are taken in part from old books and museum pieces, in part from coins, and I have to thank G. F. Hill, of the British Museum, for a generous gift of casts from some coins in that collection; in part also from photographs of my own, and others, better, of E. H. Lowber. For drawings of difficult matter I am greatly indebted to Miss Helen Fernald, Instructor in the History of Art at Bryn Mawr College.

To the Curator of Publications at the Hispanic Society, Miss Isabel K. Macdermott, the reader owes as much as the writer, for her long patience and vigilant oversight during the publication. For the use in Spanish words, names, and titles, she and I are responsible, jointly, but it seems desirable that I should explain the principles to which we conformed; Spanish names of persons and places, and titles of modern books, are spelled and accented in accordance with the latest rulings of the Spanish Academy; the titles of old books are given as the author gave them. But it is a proud truth that the relations between those of English and those of Spanish speech were not established yesterday, nor even during the Peninsular War, but are a part of the ancient heritage of the two nations, and the sign thereof is that Spanish places have English names. We speak of Seville and Corunna, Pampeluna and Saragossa, Castile and Leon, by the same token that Shakespeare wrote of Katharine of Aragon, and Southey of the Infants of Carrion rhyming to Robin Hood's Marion. Those names I have used as we say Venice, Rome, and Florence, Paris, Lyons and Marseilles. They are each a token and a pledge that insularity is merely geographical and not intellectual, that isolation on the other side of the world cannot cut off Americans from talking in free and homely speech of the great places to which they turn with ancestral love and longing. In referring to Kings and Queens of the Spains, and other saints or heroes, I have not been careful always to call them by the same name, but as Jack and Jill may be addressed as John and Joan at times, I have taken the liberties that old acquaintance allowed. To call Isabel the Catholic Elizabeth, or the English Tudor the Isabellan style (though others have done it), I should hold for presumption, but Ferdinand and Alfonso may alternate methinks with Fernando and Alonso when the chronicler or the hagiographer prompts, and S. James is still recognizable as Santiago. This is not meticulous nor pedantic, but it is comfortable and easy, which is a great good in travel. [red highlighting by gb]
