Abstract

This essay will examine the close similarity between the treatises of a Franciscan monk named Giovanni di Fedanzola and a Jewish sage named Ashtori Ha-Parḥi in the fourteenth-century Holy Land. The absence of guides for Christian pilgrims after the final departure of the Crusaders in 1291 was filled inter alia by Jews, and some new traditions regarding toponyms and geographical identifications were adopted by Christians as a result. Fedanzola mostly relied on his predecessors Burchardus de Monte Sion and Marino Sanudo. However, I will demonstrate that there are some instances where Fedanzola accepts Jewish traditions regarding locations mentioned in the Old Testament, with Ashtori Ha-Parḥi as his source. I will also show that positing a relationship between the two can clarify some obscure passages in Ashtori’s treatise, Kaftor va-feraḥ.

在Sanudo和Fedanzola之间:Ashtori Ha-Parḥi作为调解人

本文将考察方济会修士乔瓦尼·迪·费丹佐拉的论文与14世纪圣地犹太圣人阿什托里Ha-Parḥi的论文之间的密切相似之处。在1291年十字军最终离开后，基督教朝圣者的向导缺失被犹太人填补，一些关于地名和地理识别的新传统因此被基督徒采用。费丹佐拉主要依靠他的前任伯查杜斯·德·蒙特·西翁和马里诺·萨努多。然而，我将证明，在某些情况下，Fedanzola接受了旧约中提到的关于地点的犹太传统，并以Ashtori Ha-Parḥi作为他的来源。我还将说明，假设两者之间的关系可以澄清阿什托里的论文《Kaftor va- feraama》中一些晦涩的段落。

期刊介绍： Medieval Encounters promotes discussion and dialogue accross cultural, linguistic and disciplinary boundaries on the interactions of Jewish, Christian and Muslim cultures during the period from the fourth through to the sixteenth century C.E. Culture is defined in its widest form to include art, all manner of history, languages, literature, medicine, music, philosophy, religion and science. The geographic limits of inquiry will be bounded only by the limits in which the traditions interacted. Confluence, too, will be construed in its widest form to permit exploration of more indirect interactions and influences and to permit examination of important subjects on a comparative basis.
