Abstract

Abstract One could argue that a mass dedicated to the Virgin of Loreto is an unusual choice for Erasmus. His Liturgy of the Virgin Mother Venerated at Loreto ( Virginis Matris apud Lauretum cultae liturgia , 1523, 1525, 1529) would prove such an argument wrong, as this overlooked text reveals much of Erasmus’ theory of accommodatio , his approach to liturgy and the cult of Mary, and his vision of the church and his spiritual exegesis, even in the midst of the Reformation’s turmoil. This article proposes a close reading of the 1525 edition, which will contextualize Erasmus’ portrait of Mary in her moral values and in the de-eroticization and purification of the medieval, Catholic model, which he re-affirms in the same years in which his controversy with Luther unfolded. Moreover, the sermon presents a rarefied and intellectual variant of the feminine imagery of the bride, which I will analyze as being systematically integrated into Erasmus’ theology of progress and ecclesiology.
伊拉斯谟和洛雷托夫人
有人可能会说,献给洛雷托圣母的弥撒对伊拉斯谟来说是一个不寻常的选择。他的《在洛雷托敬奉圣母的礼仪》(1523,1525,1529)将证明这样的论点是错误的,因为这个被忽视的文本揭示了伊拉斯谟的许多适应理论,他对礼拜仪式和对玛丽的崇拜的方法,以及他对教会的看法和他的精神训诂,即使在宗教改革的动荡之中。本文建议仔细阅读1525年版,这将把伊拉斯谟对玛丽的描绘置于她的道德价值观和中世纪天主教模式的去色情化和净化的背景下,他在与路德展开争论的同一年再次肯定了这一点。此外,布道呈现了新娘女性形象的一种罕见的知性变体,我将作为系统地整合到伊拉斯谟的进步神学和教会学中来分析。
