Summary:	"Insanity and Sanctity in Byzantium aims to understand how the use of psychological abnormality functions in deep societal transformations, producing a major shift in the religious, cultural, mental, and social aspects. The book examines a particular set of religious phenomena, in a broadly defined period and area - the Eastern Mediterranean and the Near East between the birth of Christianity and that of Islam - and seeks to reach conclusions on the nature and function of abnormal behavior sanctified by society. Taking as a starting point a particular type of saint of Orthodox Christianity, the holy fool, the person who feigns madness, and investigating other types of saints who portray abnormal behavior, such as the martyr and the ascetic, the book reveals the ambiguous character of the boundary between sanity and insanity. It explains the significance of this ambiguity to the religious experience as a motor of social movement, and sets it at the core of the socio-religious transformation that changed the Antique civilization into a world of medieval societies."...

adam_text	INSANITY AND SANCTITY IN BYZANTIUM / ROTMAN, YOUVALYYEAUTHOR : 2016 TABLE OF CONTENTS / INHALTSVERZEICHNIS PROLOGUE. INSANITY AND RELIGION PART I. SANCTIFIED INSANITY: BETWEEN HISTORY AND PSYCHOLOGY THE PARADOX THAT INHABITS AMBIGUITY MEANINGS OF INSANITY PART II. ABNORMALITY AND SOCIAL CHANGE: EARLY CHRISTIANITY VS. RABBINIC JUDAISM ABNORMALITY AND SOCIAL CHANGE SOCIALIZING NATURE: THE ASCETIC TOTEM EPILOGUE. PSYCHOLOGY, RELIGION, AND SOCIAL CHANGE DIESES SCHRIFTSTCK WURDE MASCHINELL ERZEUGT. IN THE ROMAN AND BYZANTINE NEAR EAST, THE HOLY FOOL EMERGED IN CHRISTIAN ITY AS A WAY OF DESCRIBING INDIVIDUALS WHOSE APPARENT MADNESS ALLOWED THEM TO ACHIEVE A HIGHER LEVEL OF SPIRITUALITY. INSANITY AND SANCTITY IN BYZANTIUM EXAMINES HOW THE FIGURE OF THE MAD SAINT OR MYSTIC WAS USED AS A MEANS OF INDIVIDUAL AND COLLECTIVE TRANSFOR MATION IN THE PERIOD BETWEEN THE BIRTH OF CHRISTIANITY AND THE RISE OF ISLAM. IT PRESENTS A NOVEL INTERPRETATION IN REVEALING THE CENTRAL ROLE THAT PSYCHOL OGY PLAYS IN SOCIAL AND HISTORICAL DEVEL OPMENT. EARLY CHRISTIANS LOOKED TO FIGURES WHO EMBODIED EXTREMES OF BEHAVIORLIKE THE HOLY FOOL, THE ASCETIC, THE MARTYR TO REDEFINE THEIR SOCIAL, CULTURAL, AND MENTAL SETTINGS BY READING NEW VAL UES IN ABNORMAL BEHAVIOR. COMPAR ING SUCH FORMS OF EXTREME BEHAVIOR IN EARLY CHRISTIAN, PAGAN, AND JEWISH SOCIETIES, AND DRAWING ON THEORIES OF RELATIONAL PSYCHOANALYSIS, ANTHROPOL OGY, AND SOCIOLOGY OF RELIGION, YOUVAL ROTMAN EXPLAINS HOW THE SANCTIFICATION OF FIGURES OF EXTREME BEHAVIOR MAKES THEIR ABNORMALITY SOCIALLY AND PSYCHO LOGICALLY FUNCTIONAL. THE SANCTIFICA TION OF ABNORMAL MAD BEHAVIOR CREATED A SPHERE OF AMBIGUITY IN THE AMBIT OF RELIGIOUS EXPERIENCE FOR EARLY CHRISTIANS, WHICH BROUGHT ABOUT A DEEP PSYCHOLOG ICAL SHIFT, NECESSARY FOR THE TRANSITION FROM PAGANISM TO CHRISTIANITY. A DEVELOPING SOCIETY LEAVES POROUS THE BORDER BETWEEN WHAT IS NORMAL AND ABNORMAL, BETWEEN SANITY AND INSANI TY, IN ORDER TO USE THIS AMBIGUITY AS A MEANS OF CHANGE. ROTMAN EMPHASIZES THE ROLE OF RELIGION IN MAINTAINING THIS AMBIGUITY TO EFFECT A SOCIAL AND PSYCHO LOGICAL TRANSFORMATION.

The book examines a particular set of religious phenomena, in a broadly defined period and area - the Eastern Mediterranean and the Near East between the birth of Christianity and that of Islam - and seeks to reach conclusions on the nature and function of abnormal behavior sanctified by society. Taking as a starting point a particular type of saint of Orthodox Christianity, the holy fool, the person who feigns madness, and investigating other types of saints who portray abnormal behavior, such as the martyr and the ascetic, the book reveals the ambiguous character of the boundary between sanity and insanity. It explains the significance of this ambiguity to the religious experience as a motor of social movement, and sets it at the core of the socio-religious transformation that changed the Antique civilization into a world of medieval societies."...
