Alt godt fra Tine (historiker p\u00e5 Esrum Kloster)<\/p>\n
More to come…<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Jeg har siddet og set billeder igennem fra tidligere \u00e5rs markeder og faldt over en del akt\u00f8rer med meget tydelige piercinger og tatoveringer og ret st\u00e6rk makeup. Men \u00a0har det egentlig havde nogen gang p\u00e5 jorden (eller er jeg bare \u00a0en konservativ fis, der regner med at det har det ikke)? Og hvis man er ked af, at undv\u00e6re sin makeup, er der s\u00e5 andre muligheder – \u00a0s\u00e5 det m\u00e5 jo lige undes\u00f8ges lidt…<\/p>\n
Umiddelbart har jeg ikke kunne finde nogle kilder p\u00e5, at store piercinger i eller piercinger i b\u00e5de \u00f8re, n\u00e6se, navle mm. skulle v\u00e6re blevet benyttet i middelalderens europa.<\/p>\n
men hvad jeg har kunne researche mig frem til, s\u00e5 er piercinger i andet end \u00f8re \u00a0ikke kendt i middelalderen. Huller i \u00f8rene kendes dog hos b\u00e5de m\u00e6nd og kvinder (dog er de mest popul\u00e6re i Europa i slutningen af h\u00f8jmiddelalderen).<\/p>\n
Jeg har fundet nogle links til litteratur omkring \u00f8reringe mm.<\/p>\n
Lidt om \u00f8reringe: <\/em>http:\/\/www.larsdatter.com\/earrings.htm<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n Tatoveringer findes (overraskende nok for mig) ogs\u00e5 i middelalderen, men var ikke hvermands eje som i dag.\u00a0 Tatoveringer bliver i perioden hovedsagligt brugt til at udtrykke sin religi\u00f8sitet og pilgrimme kunne blive tatoveret som bevis p\u00e5 deres rejse.<\/p>\n Lidt om tatovering: The relationship between tattooing and Christian Church has been an uneasy one. The Old Testament expressly prohibited the practice, a sentiment echoed by Saint Basil the Great in the 4th century AD:<\/em><\/p>\n “No man shall let his hair grow long or tattoo himself as do the heathen, those apostles of Satan who make themselves despicable by indulging in lewd and lascivious thoughts. Do not associate with those who mark themselves with thorns and needles so that their blood flows to the earth.”<\/em><\/p>\n However, early Christians were often tattooed on the face as a punishment by the Roman authorities and after the rise of Christianity, followers sometimes tattooed themselves voluntarily to mirror the wounds of Christ on his hands and feet (or ‘stigmata’, which was also the Roman word for ‘tattoo’). An edict issued by the Council of Northumberland several centuries later in AD 787 distinguished between acceptable Christian tattoos and ‘profane’ tattoos worn by pagan Britons. According to the Church Fathers:<\/em><\/p>\n “When an individual undergoes the ordeal of tattooing for the sake of God, he is greatly praised. But one who submits himself to be tattooed for superstitious reasons in the manner of the heathens will derive no benefit there from.”<\/em><\/p>\n By the Middle Ages, mentions of tattooing become more frequent in the Christian record. Some devout friars and clerics wore tattoos to demonstrate their faith and there were stories of tattoos appearing on the body miraculously, as in the case of the exorcism of a German girl in 1501. Most notably in the medieval period, pilgrims and crusaders to the Holy Land had crosses tattooed on their arms and hands as souvenirs and evidence of their travels.<\/em><\/p>\n Source: Pitt Rivers Museum Body Arts – <\/em>http:\/\/web.prm.ox.ac.uk\/bodyarts\/index.php\/permanent-body-arts\/tattooing\/170-wooden-tattooing-stamp.html<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n Brugen af makeup kendes helt tilbage fra Egypterne. I middelalderen har makeup ogs\u00e5 v\u00e6ret kendt og brugt, men ikke som vi kender det i dag (og en del har ikke v\u00e6ret noget vi har lyst til at putte i hovedet eller kroppen i dag).<\/p>\n Et par links til inspiration: http:\/\/rosaliegilbert.com\/cosmetics.htm<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Plucked-Shaved-Braided-Renaissance-Practices\/dp\/193006408X<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n All the Best Tine (historian at Esrum)<\/p>\n To be continued…<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Tattoos and Piercings<\/strong><\/p>\n I’ve been looking through pictures from previous years’ markets and fell across some participants with clearly visible piercings and tattoos and quite strong makeup. My first reaction was Ohhh…thats no good, but\u00a0am I just a conservative ass who expect that it is no good or what… So it is something I must have a closer look at.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n At first look Tattoos and Piercings (large holes in the ears, nose piercings etc. ) is not very medieval, but they came in other forms.<\/p>\n Earrings are worn by both men and women (but is most widespread at the end of the High Middle Ages).<\/p>\n About earrings: <\/em>http:\/\/www.larsdatter.com\/earrings.htm<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n Tattoos are also used during the Middle Ages, but was not common as today.<\/p>\n About tattoos: The relationship between tattooing and Christian Church has been an uneasy one.
