The second life of missionaries from the island of Pereo, Saint Five Brothers ( + 1003) in the Czech, Polish and Italian tradition
Popis výsledku v původním jazyce
The Saint Five Brothers probably belong to the least known Czech patrons. The lives of the Five Brothers used to be perceived in the Czech ambience confusingly (if at all), and always in connection with the life of Saint Adalbert. The Five Brothers were called "Benedict with the Brothers", "Boleslav Brothers", "Christinus with the Brothers", or even "St. Adalbert's companions". Almost forgotten figure of Olomouc's former patron St. Christinus, whose relic is still preserved in the Olomouc cathedral of St. Wenceslas, prove the former expansion of the cult of Five Brothers in the Czech lands. The beginning of the cult of the Five Brothers in the Czech lands is possible to connect with the campaign of the Bohemian duke Bretislav to Poland in 1039. The relics of the murdered hermits (Five Brothers), were transported to Prague as the spoils of war. Only later, their relics were situated in Stará Boleslav in Bohemia, near the former grave of St. Wenceslas and from that place, according to usual way, distributed to other churches. St. Christinus' skull found a place in Olomouc cathedral, probably during its construction in the 12th century. The aim of the paper is not to debate the mission of the Five Brothers from Italy to Poland (on the request of their spiritual leader St. Romuald), but rather to analyze the tradition within the lives of saints and another narrative source. It is interesting mixture of tradition of foundation of the first Benedictine monastery in Břevnov (in Prague) with tradition of the Romualdine mission to Poland. It seems that the violent and early transfer of the relics from Poland to Bohemia prevented formation of the independent Polish tradition. That tradition later fully adopted the Czech version… However, the crucial part of the paper lies in the baroque era, in the moment of the growing interest of Italian monastic historians, who could not believe their eyes reading the Czech or Polish sources connected with Five Brothers, having available accurate, or (at least) much older Italian sources. It seems, that “Central European story” of lives of the Five Brothers, was different to Italian one. The purpose of the paper is to define the various strategies of creating the cult of the Five Brothers in different territories and to characterize its autonomous development and its final synthesis which came (probably) too late.
