ABSTRACT Much has been written on the importance of the arts of memory since Frances Yates’s The Art of Memory (1966). However, in the expanding body of scholarship on mnemonic practices in the Middle Ages and early modern period, little attention has been given to the relationship between memory, preaching, and devotion, and to how sermons were remembered and transmitted. This article sets out to fill this gap by exploring the connection between rhetorical invention, memory, and the visual image in seventeenth-century Ukrainian preaching. Using the printed sermon collections of Ioanykii Galiatovs'kyi (Kliuch Razuminiia, 1659) and Antonii Radyvylovs'kyi (Ohorodok Marii Bohorodytsy, 1676; Vinets Khrystov, 1688) and the previously unstudied manuscript vernacular sermons of Stefan Iavors'kyi (1690s), the author demonstrates how Ukrainian Orthodox literati understood the role that visual perception, imagination, and memory played in structuring their own rhetorical material as well as developing their listeners’ virtuous behaviour. In particular, she argues that sermon literature used the techniques of visualization and memorization that enhanced the ability to meditate privately, and that these texts’ emphasis on vividness (enargeia or hypotyposis) and memory schemes was strengthened by the Aristotelian idea that all thoughts and feelings depended on the imagination.

“像在平板电脑上一样,将这种记忆刻在心上……”:十七世纪乌克兰讲道中的记忆,冥想和视觉意象

摘要自从弗朗西斯·耶茨(Frances Yates)的《记忆的艺术》(Art of Memory)(1966年)以来,关于记忆艺术的重要性的文章就很多了。然而,在中世纪和近代早期关于助记符习俗的学术界不断扩大的情况下,人们很少关注记忆,讲道和奉献之间的关系,以及讲道的记忆和传播方式。本文着手探讨在17世纪乌克兰讲道中的修辞性发明,记忆和视觉图像之间的联系,以填补这一空白。使用Ioanykii Galiatovs'kyi(Kliuch Razuminiia,1659)和Antonii Radyvylovs'kyi(Ohorodok Marii Bohorodytsy,1676; Vinets Khrystov,1688)和先前未经研究的手稿白话布道(Stefan I690)的印刷布道。作者展示了乌克兰东正教士文人如何理解视觉,想象力和记忆在构造自己的修辞材料以及发展听众的道德行为方面所起的作用。她特别指出,讲道文学使用了可视化和记忆的技术,增强了私人冥想的能力,并且亚里士多德主义认为所有的思想和感受都加强了这些文本对生动性(充血或虚弱)和记忆方式的强调。取决于想象力。
