Abstract

Two years after the recognition of the Italian Sign Language (LIS) in our country (May 19th, 2021), the Department of Human and Social Sciences of the University of Bergamo, in the context of the University Call for Public Engagement initiatives 2023, dedicated an exhibition-conference "Signs of Art: sign languages between expression and participation" to the creative, expressive, and communicative potential of LIS. This paper, which closes the first year of activity of the column "Inclusion: school and surroundings", intends to present this initiative which arose as the result of a research-training project conducted in collaboration with the “Giacomo and Pio Manzù” State Art School of Bergamo, the Scuola Audiofonetica of Brescia and the Ente Nazionale Deaf of Milan and aimed at promoting actions to support the school inclusion processes of deaf pupils and the qualification of the teaching staff on the sign languages.

Abstract

This short paper focuses on the historically inaccurate characterization of Queen Zenobia as a Judaizer in ancient Christian sources, in relation to the heresy of Paul of Samosata. After surveying different presentations of the relationship between Paul and Zenobia and interrogating their significance, it argues that by weaving together Paul's xenophilia, Judeophilia, heresy, and appreciation for powerful women, a series of authors - Athanasius; Philastrius of Brescia; John Chrysostom; Theodoret; the author of a fragment attributed by Athanasius; those responsible for the invention of a work To Zenobia (or for attributing spurious excerpts of Paul to a lost work with this title); Photius; Michael the Great; Barhebraeus; and Nikephoros Kallistos Xanthopoulos - labored at painting the reversed image of the Christian intellectual tradition they knew and cherished: fully identified with the Roman Empire, ruled by a male emperor; separated from the scholarly practices of Jewish literate elites; and entrenched behind the wordy barricades of orthodoxy.
