This article delves into the portrayal of old age in a renowned treatise on the stages of life, which had a significant influence on subsequent literary tradition. Philip of Novara’s essay, dating from the mid-13th century, is widely recognized as a moralizing tract that reflects abstract moralistic views on old age, characteristic of the Middle Ages. However, there are also elements of service and charity that are expected from people, especiall…
The Miraculous Icon of Our Lady of Saydnaya. Multifaith Worship of a Sacred Image (12th – 14th Centuries)
The article considers the little-studied aspects of the medieval cult of the icon of Our Lady from the Syrian monastery of Saydnaya (near Damascus). The specifics of that shrine lies in the multi-confessional nature of its veneration. Such examples were not uncommon in the Holy Land, where Christians and Muslims may have shared a sacred history and topography.

A passage translated in the article fro…

“La Princesse Lointaine”. Between Literary Image and Historical Character
