Publisher Description:
Les traditions anciennes, ant rieures au VIIIe si cle, sur le sort final de Marie forment un ensemble la fois tr s tendu et fort complexe. Les traditions litt raires sur la dormition et l'assomption repr sentent une pi ce majeure du dossier. Mais elles ne peuvent tre situ es et class es que si l'on consid re galement les traditions topologiques s'y rapportant. Le pr sent volume, qui compl te celui publi en 1995 (Dormition et Assomption de Marie. Histoire des traditions anciennes), pr sente de mani re d finitive une recherche commenc e en 1986. Dans ce recueil, un certain nombre de contributions, treize, parues part du premier volume, entre 1992 et 2007, ont t regroup es. Ces diff rents travaux, corrig s et compl t s, fournissent des apports fondamentaux, d'ordre litt raire comme d'ordre doctrinal: en particulier ceux relatifs l'histoire de la recherche dans ce domaine, aux Vies de la Vierge et aux Apocalypses de la Vierge.

The ancient traditions before the VIIIth century concerning the final fate of Mary constitute a large and very complex group. The literary traditions on the dormition and the assumption represent the major part of this dossier. We can only situate and classify them if we also study their topological traditions. The present volume completes the volume published in 1995 (Dormition et Assomption de Marie. Histoire des traditions anciennes). It is the final result of a research started in 1986. In the current compilation we regroup thirteen contributions published between 1992 and 2007. These different articles, rectified and completed, present a fundamental contribution, literary and doctrinal: particularly those on the history of the research, the Lives of the Virgin and the Apocalypses of the Virgin.
