摘要

本文调查了17世纪末和18世纪奥斯曼帝国中一个鲜为人知的天主教徒群体Diyarbakır迦勒底人的存档做法。它主张对档案进行灵活的定义,不是基于传统的特征,如与已定义的机构存储库的链接,而是基于它们形成社区的目的。迦勒底教会松散的制度结构导致了一个非常规的档案,它从来没有一个物理中心,主要由礼仪手稿组成;尽管如此,它记录了可识别的档案材料,并从参与其制作的家庭,抄写员和教会的重叠圈子中获得了凝聚力,以及抄写员实践的系统创新。Diyarbakır迦勒底档案不仅反映了社区的独特形式,而且有助于创造和重塑它。通过记录社会关系,它使这些义务延续了几十年,并产生了持续的承诺。它还在一个虚幻的层面上想象社区,封锁紧张和麻烦,以保持一个在虔诚领导下团结的教会的理想化形象。因此,这些分散的流动档案与社区的形成密切相关,并有助于迦勒底教会在巨大困难时期的生存。

Archiving Faith: Record-Keeping and Catholic Community Formation in Eighteenth-Century Mesopotamia

Archiving Faith: Record-Keeping and Catholic Community Formation in Eighteenth-Century Mesopotamia
Abstract This article investigates the archiving practices of a little-known group of Catholics in the Ottoman Empire, the Diyarbakır Chaldeans, in the late seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. It argues for a flexible definition of archives, based not on traditional characteristics such as links to a defined institutional repository, but on their purpose of community formation. The loose institutional structure of the Chaldean Church resulted in an unconventional archive, which never had one physical centre and consisted largely of liturgical manuscripts; nonetheless, it recorded recognizably archival material and gained cohesion from the overlapping circles of families, scribes and churches involved in its production, as well as from systematic innovations in scribal practices. The Diyarbakır Chaldean archive not only reflected the distinctive form of the community but also contributed to creating and reshaping it. By recording social ties, it kept these obligations alive for decades and generated ongoing commitments. It also imagined the community on an illusory level, occluding tensions and troubles in order to preserve an idealized image of a church united under pious leadership. This dispersed, mobile archive thus was intimately connected to community formation and contributed to the survival of the Chaldean Church in a time of immense difficulty.
