摘要

本文主张将政治和社会经济分析结合起来研究中世纪早期的送礼行为,特别是在墨洛温王朝晚期的背景下。这一时期的送礼行为通常是通过一种受人类学学术影响的历史编纂传统来看待的,这种传统很少考虑这种行为背后的任何社会经济原因——尤其是在教会机构和行动者的情况下。本文与最近越来越多的对这一观点的回答联系在一起,特别是与Ian Wood对Appadurai和Appadurai Breckenridge的“寺庙社团”理论的重新研究有关。它研究了政治、社会和经济背景,以及圣埃利吉乌斯(Saint Eligius)一生中送礼的影响。埃利吉乌斯是7世纪的工匠,是梅罗温王朝(Merovingian court)的成员,后来成为法国东北部诺永(Noyon)教区的主教。本文从三个方面分析了这段历史:首先,它通过圣人与墨洛温王朝的关系来研究政治庇护与送礼之间的联系。其次,它考虑了赠送礼物对整个文本中描述的教会机构及其周围社会的潜在社会经济影响。第三,它根据墨洛温教会及其机构在东高卢的政治扩张来解释这些方面。

Gift-Giving and the Seventh-Century Frankish Church in Merovingian Hagiography: The case of the Vita Eligii
Abstract This paper argues for the combination of political and socio-economic analysis in the study of early medieval gift-giving, specifically in the context of the late Merovingian Church. Gift-giving in this period is often viewed through a historiographical tradition strongly influenced by anthropological scholarship, which rarely considers any socio-economic reasoning behind the act – particularly in the case of ecclesiastical institutions and actors. This paper associates itself with the recent and growing answer to this position, and particularly to Ian Wood’s re-working of Appadurai and Appadurai Breckenridge’s “Temple Societies” theory. It studies the political, social, and economic context and repercussions of gift-giving in the Life of Saint Eligius, a seventh-century craftsman, member of the Merovingian court, and subsequently bishop of the see of Noyon, in North-Eastern Francia. The paper analyses the vita in a threefold way: Firstly, it looks at the connection between political patronage and gift-giving through the saint’s relationship to the Merovingian court. Secondly, it considers the potential socio-economic effects of gift-giving on the ecclesiastical institutions described throughout the text, and on the societies around them. Thirdly, it interprets these aspects in the light of the political expansion of the Merovingian Church, and of its institutions, in eastern Gaul.
