Questo lavoro, analizzando come nei Dialoghi di Gregorio Magno vengono definiti i saperi profani e la cultura pagana, propone che Gregorio ha quattro maniere di riferirsi a questi saperi nell’opera: a) Collegare il sapere profano al demonio, come nel caso del mago Basilio nella storia del monaco Equizio, la storia della donna posseduta dal demonio ed esorcizzata da Fortunato e gli scontri tra il demonio e Benedetto dopo la distruzione del tempio di Apollo a Montecassino. b) Criticare il sapere profano e considerarlo peccaminoso, che troviamo nel racconto dell’abbandono degli studi di Benedetto, nelle lodi dei monaci semplici e ignoranti, o le critiche all’interpretazione dei sogni. c) Integrare il sapere profano come elemento di sfondo o di contenuto del racconto, nel caso della medicina e del vocabolario medico. d) Collegarlo a situazioni positive, utilizzando strumenti medici come simbolo della parola divina, o come succede nella storia di Paolino di Nola in Africa.

secular wisdom and pagan culture in the dialogues of gregorius magnus |
description |
This work, analyzing the way of definition of the profane knowledge and the pagan culture in the Dialogues of Gregory the Great, proposes that Gregory have four manners to speak of this knowledge:
a) Connect the profane knowledge to the devil, as in the case of Basil the magician in the story of Egitius the monk; the story of the women possessed by the devil and exorcised by Fortunato and, finally, the conflicts between the devil and Benedict after the destruction of the Temple of Apollus in Montecassino.
b) Criticize the profane knowledge, considering this knowledge a sin. We found this situation in the story of the abandonment of the studies of St. Benedict, in the praises of the simple and ingnorant monks and finally the critiquess to the interpretation of dreams.
c) Incorporate the profane knowledge as background or content in the stories. We see this in the case of the medical vocabulary.
d) Connect the profane knowledge to positive situations, For example, using medical instruments as symbol of the divine word, or in the story of Paulinus of Nola in Africa. |
