The text is focused on the ancient literary images of the Cumaean Sibil, one of the most known and mysterious figures of the Roman mythology. Described by Vergil and Ovid in their monumental epic poems, mentioned also by other Roman writers (like Aulus Gellius, Petronius, Silius Italicus) Sibil from Cumae became a symbol of longevity of Rome and of the Roman culture and a guarantee of its successful existence. According to the mythological tradition, Sybil’s appearance was changing during her thousand-year-long life from a resplendent beauty, who was desired by Apollo, to a flabby old woman, dreaming about her own death. In this context the Roman prophetess could be interpreted as a personification of the passing human nature, ruled by the cycle of the returning eras (the Gold Era, the Silver Era, the Bronze Era and the Iron Era). The tragedy of Sybil, who was mortal, but could not die, trapped in her weak human body, firstly inspired Roman poets. Later their poems became an inspiration for many painters (for example Salvator Rosa, Guercino, Domenichino, Jan Breughel the Elder, William Turner) who recreated the Cumaean prophetess, giving her a new silent life in the art galleries all over Europe. Their masterpieces correspond with the ancient tradition underlining her agelessness.

“Deborah, the wife of Lappidoth, was a prophet who was judging Israel at that time” (Jdg 4:4). Using these words the autor of Judges had presented a new hero of the book to his recipients, readers and to us as well. Such solemn and long „introduction” may surprises for several reasons, including the fact that in one, so short verse have been collected and concentrated almost all titles bound up with the protagonist of the Jdg 4–5. The author of the article tries to explain the meaning of these honorable titles and convince that their application to Deborah is fully justified. The article consists of three parts. First, the author presents (1) the main problems associated with the dating of Jdg 5 and the relationship of the Song of Deborah to Jdg 4, then he shows Deborah as (2) the judge, and as (3) the prophetess, who became the “mother in Israel”.

Word anus was used in a primarily negative sense to describe an old woman. Anus is usually presented as a libidinous and hideous hag who indulges in strong wine or practices black magic, mainly for erotic purposes. Though Latin literature brings as well examples of a different type of anus: goddesses assuming the shape of old women to guide or deceive the mortals and old prophetic women, inspired by the gods. Anus can be gifted with divine powers and secret knowledge. The paper traces the motif of anus as a witch or a divine woman on the basis of selected examples from the works of Horace, Ovid, Petronius, Apuleius and Silius Italicus.

The study is an attempt to reveal the Miriam’s contribution into process of formation of biblical Israel as nation. Author of deliberations is focusing attention on two fundamental texts, that is Ex 15:20-21 and Num 12. After presentation of the literary structure of selected periscopes – making some important references to other biblical texts of the Old Testament – the author tries to portray Miriam as a singer, a precursor of worship, a prophetess and a guide of the people. Highlighting her suffering as an indispensable element of the prophetic charism, he underlines its importance for verification and authentication of Miriam’s prophetic authority. According to the author, the prophetic charism of Miriam, shown by the hagiographer for the service of hope, consisted, among others, in a “conveying” of her brethren from the visible into invisible world, from the present into the future, and from temporality toward eternity.

PL

Artykuł podejmuje próbę ukazania wkładu Miriam w proces, w trakcie którego biblijny Izrael wyłania się jako naród. Autor artykułu skupia się na dwóch tekstach: Wj 15,20-21 i Lb 12. Po zaprezentowaniu struktury literackiej wspomnianych perykop i ukazaniu ich powiązań z innymi tekstami ST, autor przedstawia Miriam jako pieśniarkę, prekursorkę liturgii uwielbienia, prorokinię i przewodniczkę ludu. Podkreślając jej cierpienia jako nieodzowny element charyzmatu proroka, autor podkreśla ich wagę dla stwierdzenia autentyczności władzy prorockiej Miriam. Według piszącego, charyzmat prorocki Miriam został przez hagiografa ukazany jako wpajający nadzieję i między innymi polegał na przeprowadzaniu jej rodaków ze świata widzialnego do niewidzialnego, z teraźniejszości w przyszłość i z czasowości w nieskończoność.
