Document Details : Title: The Incarnated Icon of Saidnaya Goes West Subtitle: A Re-examination of the Motif in the Light of New Manuscript Evidence Author(s): BARAZ, D. Journal: Le Muséon Volume: 108 Issue: 1-2 Date: 1995 Pages: 181-191 DOI: 10.2143/MUS.108.1.525848 Abstract : In what follows I will present an Arabic text that solves the chronological problem of the transmission of the legend, and refers as well to the incarnation motif. I will then suggest an interpretation of the cultural context of the legend that can account for the difference in emphases between the European versions and the Eastern ones. |
