Summary: | This article examines the Nomina archangelorum, a text probably earlier than the end of the 8th cent., in which seven archangels (Gabriel, Michael, Raphael, Uriel, Raguel, Barachiel and Pantasaron) are listed to whom one should turn in different vicissitudes of life on earth. The author examines the contents and compares them with the numerous contemporary incantations and prayers involving non-biblical angels and describes the diffusion of the text, which exists in four other redactions all later than that in the Cologne Cathedral Library of the 9-10th cent., which was edited by Leclercq. The author examines the origin and destiny of their mysterious protagonist: archangel Pantasaron, perhaps of Jewish provenance, who at the moment is not attested in any earlier source than the Nomina. |
