Abstract

As the Latin phrase in the above title says, the passage from paganism to Christianity does not arise ex machina, but it is also prepared through the continuous experience of religiosity in pagan contexts. There is a preparation that is said to be evangelical, because little by little and in many ways, the Christian Good News reaches the whole Roman Empire. This is visible in the evolution of classical art, especially in the mosaic, with the best examples, among other significant myths, of Orpheus’s story. Hence the importance of new approaches to classical myths, namely in their representation in opus musivum.

Özet

Yukarıda adı geçen Latince deyim, çok tanrılı dinden Hıristiyanlığa giden yolun “ex machina”dan değil, aynı zamanda çok tanrılı dinlerde süreklilik gösteren dindarlık deneyiminden geçtiğini ifade etmektedir. Evangelist olduğu söylenen bir oluşum küçük küçük ve pek çok yolla Hıristiyan vahiylerini, tüm Roma İmparatorluğu’na ulaştırmaktadır. Bu klasik sanatın evriminde, özellikle en iyi örnekleri mozaik sanatında, diğer anlamlı mitlerin arasında bilhassa Orpheus’un hikayesinde görülebilir. Dolayısıyla klasik mitlere yeni yaklaşımların önemi, yani “opus musivum’da” temsil edilmeleri ele alınacaktır.
