Abstract

Abstract Between 1484 and 1507, an anonymous Franciscan Observant friar recorded his own preaching in northern and central Italy in a diary now housed in Foligno City Library as manuscript C. 85. The diary is a unique historical document because it enables us to reconstruct the process of sermon preparation from the friar’s perspective. It also allows us to view his growth as a preacher, from novice to expert. In the early years of the diary, the preacher selected his models by topic from past popular preachers’ sermons. In the middle years, he composed his own sermon collections and began to use them in his preaching. In the final years, he added his new collection of sermons. He also recalled and reused sermons that he had delivered before, increasing the number of cross-references in the diary. Consequently, the diary reminded him vividly of his own experiences: the outlines of past sermons, their results, or other pieces of advice to himself. The preacher thus prepared his sermons while maintaining a dialogue with his past self. Examining the twenty Lenten sermon cycles that comprise a large part of manuscript C. 85 in chronological order, I describe the manuscript as a Bildungsroman ante litteram.

中世纪晚期意大利一位匿名方济会传教士的成长小说(Biblioteca Comunale di Foligno, MS C. 85)
1484年至1507年间,一位不知名的方济各会观察修士在日记中记录了自己在意大利北部和中部的布道,这本日记的手稿C. 85现收藏于Foligno市图书馆。日记是一份独特的历史文件,因为它使我们能够从修士的角度重建布道准备的过程。它也让我们看到他作为一个传教士的成长,从新手到专家。在日记的早期,牧师根据主题从过去受欢迎的牧师的布道中选择了他的模型。在中期,他编写了自己的讲道集,并开始在他的讲道中使用。在最后的几年里,他增加了他的新布道集。他还回忆和重复他以前讲过的布道,增加了日记中相互参照的次数。因此,日记生动地提醒他自己的经历:过去布道的大纲,结果,或者其他给自己的建议。传教士就这样一边准备布道,一边与过去的自己保持对话。检查二十个四旬期布道周期,包括大部分手稿C. 85按时间顺序,我描述的手稿作为一个文学前的成长小说。
