  • Another True Cross : Psellos, Heraklios, and the Cross of the Archangel Michael at Sykeon
  • 2020
  • Ingår i: Jahrbuch des Österreichischen Byzantinistik. - : Osterreichische Akademie der Wissenschaften, Verlag. - 0378-8660 .- 1810-536X. ; 1:69, s. 99-112
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • This paper reads Psellos’ Oration to the Archangel Michael as a pointed political piece couched as a pious sermon about Christian miracles. It argues that, under the narrative of the theft of the “holy cross” from the shrine at Sykeon, Psellos veils a reference to a contemporary event, namely, the rebellion of Roussel of Bailleul against Michael VII. The aim of the oration is to restore credibility to the monastic community after their misplaced support of the Norman rebel. The allusion is constructed rhetorically through an elaborate etiology for the monastery, combining the dedication to the Archangel with the True Cross through the agency of Emperor Heraklios. This unexpected reference to the precious relic has so far gone unnoticed.

  • Greek Manuscripts in Sweden: : a Digital Catalogue (www.manuscripta.se)
  • 2018
  • Ingår i: Greek Manuscript Cataloguing: Past, Present, and Future. - Turnhout : Brepols. - 9782503578248 ; , s. 59-66
  • Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Greek manuscript cataloguing today and its future perspectives: a comprehensive overview. There is currently a marked and steadily rising interest, in Greek manuscript studies and beyond, in the materiality of manuscripts, their genetic and evolutionary history, the identities and practices of scribes and readers, the methods and issues of manuscript cataloguing both in printed and digital form. Moreover, libraries and collections worldwide are currently digitizing their collections of manuscripts and sharing them in the form of digital images online. This volume will be the first published book offering a comprehensive exploration of the state of Greek manuscript cataloguing and its future perspectives, with a specific attention to the most recent methodological achievements and to the growing impact of digital media in the field of Byzantine catalography. As such, the volume will address a central area of research for a wide audience of scholars (in the related fields of palaeography, codicology, philology, art history, text history, cultural studies), manuscript librarians and conservators, university students and all other persons concerned with the history of Greek and Byzantine books and texts, their actors and the vicissitudes of their production and transmission, the means for describing, studying and preserving them.

  • Keeping Everyone on Board : Gregory the Great's 'Theory of Iconoclasm'
  • 2022
  • Ingår i: European Review. - : Cambridge University Press. - 1062-7987 .- 1474-0575. ; 30, s. S47-S53
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Pope Gregory the Great (s. 590-604) wrote two letters to Bishop Serenus of Marseilles, reproaching his acts of iconoclasm that had led to schism in his community. These short documents are considered to contain Gregory's theory of art as a book for the illiterate and have been criticized for destroying the aura of sacred art to all subsequent Western developments. Here, I argue that the pope's fundamental contribution is to offer instead a theory of iconoclasm. Relying on previous ideas about the pedagogical and communicative power of art and its ability to reach a larger audience beyond the elite, Gregory defends the rights of the community of 'gentiles and illiterates' who find in portable painted panels an expression of their identity in the church at Marseilles. Serenus's wish to impose a superior orthodoxy on the pious if incorrect habits of his flock cannot justify his resorting to iconoclasm. The pope's vigorous condemnation protects the vulnerable minority and sets an important precedent against any acts of iconoclasm in the West.

  • Leafing through Manuscripts Backwards : Doodles, Marginal Drawings, and the Organic Life of Otrantine Libraries
  • 2019
  • Ingår i: Marginalia. - : INST ART STUDIES. - 9789548594752 ; , s. 463-478
  • Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Looking at the marginal drawings in some manuscripts from the region of Otranto, in Southern Italy, this paper presents their choice of subjects, both animal and human, and tells the story of their interconnectedness. Echoes between similar designs strengthen the hypothesis that these manuscripts belonged to or gravitated around the theological school at Aradeo, whether their contents were sacred or classical texts. These drawings reveal the pious inclinations of these medieval readers, together with their skills at sketching both portraits and fantastic beasts.

  • Natural Suffering : Viola, Psellos, and a Christian Ecology of Pain
  • 2019
  • Ingår i: Ikon - Journal of the iconographic studies. - : Brepols Publishers NV. - 1846-8551. ; 12, s. 239-248
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The installation by Bill Viola, Martyrs, depicts four suffering individuals without showing any outward pain. The onslaught of the four elements makes them victims, but their calm acceptance of their fate and unruffled composure raises the question of what, if anything, the viewer is meant to experience. Through some contemporary commentators, I raise the questions of Viola's choice of depicting a gore-less martyrdom and its effects. By retracing both the elemental aspects and the concept of painlessness in Christian writings, I attribute Viola's choice not only to a syncretistic outlook but also to a strand of representation compatible with a Christian world-view. Nevertheless, differences remain, and the question of whether real suffering can be depicted without outward signs is key for understanding the evolution of a medieval aesthetics, as well as for appreciating Viola's modern take on death.

  • Perils of Travel or Joys of Heaven? : Reconsidering the Traveling Hypothesis for Bodleian Library, MS E. D. Clarke 15 and the Function of Diminutive Manuscripts
  • 2019
  • Ingår i: Manuscripta. - : Brepols Publishers NV. - 0025-2603 .- 2031-0226. ; 63:1, s. 63-104
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • This paper examines the function and purpose of small format Byzantine Greek psalters. It addresses specifically Marc Lauxtermann's proposal that, on the basis of its small size, Oxford, Bodleian Library, MS E. D. Clarke 15 was made for the purpose of travel. Contrary to Lauxtermann's literal reading of travel metaphors in the poems of the book's owner, Mark the Monk, I argue that size and portability are not reliable indicators of a travel function. Instead, by interpreting these travel metaphors as indicative of spiritual conversion and placing Clarke 15 within the context of Annemarie Weyl Carr's category of "diminutive manuscripts," I show that this manuscript and other such small psalters were produced as gifts to mark the entry into monastic life of the individual making profession.
