了解罗马帝国崩溃和宗教改革之间的宗教变迁是中世纪考古学的基石之一，但它却因时期、教派和地理分歧而分裂。本文采用一个整体框架，将基督教、异教、伊斯兰教和犹太教的宗教转型案例研究置于长期、跨文化的视角，为从根本上重新思考中世纪宗教的考古方法奠定了基础。我们的方法围绕“混合性和韧性”以及“节奏和轨迹”的分析主题，将注意力从民族宗教转变叙事的奇点上转移到更深入地理解中世纪人们在日常生活中如何重新协商宗教信仰、实践和身份。
UNDERSTANDING RELIGIOUS CHANGE between the collapse of the Roman Empire and the Reformation forms one of the cornerstones of medieval archaeology, but has been riven by period, denominational, and geographical divisions. This paper lays the groundwork for a fundamental rethink of archaeological approaches to medieval religions, by adopting an holistic framework that places Christian, pagan, Islamic and Jewish case studies of religious transformation in a long-term, cross-cultural perspective. Focused around the analytical themes of ‘hybridity and resilience’ and ‘tempo and trajectories’, our approach shifts attention away from the singularities of national narratives of religious conversion, towards a deeper understanding of how religious beliefs, practices and identity were renegotiated by medieval people in their daily lives.
