| dc.description.abstract | Among Shenoute’s anti-pagan activities described in sections 81–88 of Besa’s so-called Life of Shenoute, we find a fascinating scene of the torments of the Beyond, formulated as a curse and at the same time as a prophetic vision. The torment described in this episode is moreover interesting in that it describes an eternal punishment for the sinner in Hell, in which his body has been forced into a quite uncomfortable anatomical position. In this paper, we will analyze the episode against the background of the hagiographic and biblical topoi for the punishment in Hell, the identity of the person cursed, and Egyptian and magical ideas of the cursed human body in Hell. | |
