摘要

本文考察了最早几个世纪殉道文学对基督教身份形成的影响。从学术界“语言转向”的见解中得到启示，本文考察了殉道者传统的功能:将苦难确定为真正基督徒身份的证据，将殉道者转变为被视为精英的基督徒阶层，并促进强烈的反帝言论。因此，对这些文本中历史真实性的质疑让位于对这些故事的修辞和意识形态影响的分析。

The Linguistic Turn and the Expanding Horizons of Early Christian Martyrdom

This article examines the impact of martyrdom literature on the formation of Christian identity in the earliest centuries. Taking a cue from insights from the “linguistic turn” in scholarship, the article examines the function of martyr traditions in identifying suffering as the evidence of true Christian identity, in transforming the martyrs into a perceived elite class of Christians to be emulated, and in promoting a strong, anti-imperial rhetoric. Questions of historical veracity in these texts therefore give way to an analysis of the rhetorical and ideological impact of these stories.
