Added by anan, 22 Jul 2020 The hypothesis about the existence of a carnal bond between Jesus Christ and Mary Magdalene has always been considered blasphemous by the Catholic Church, and it is no coincidence that the epic massacre of Bèziers, perpetrated during the Albigensian crusade, took place on the day dedicated to the Saint, as if to avenge her for the sacrilegious doctrines of the Cathars. It is probable that Caldara, due to the period in which he lived, also shared the Orthodox theory. There is no doubt, however, that the "heretic" one had yet to enjoy a certain following two centuries earlier, judging by the numerous allusions contained in the figurative testimonies that have come down to us. If in our creative experiment we chose to adopt a theme from the end of the seventeenth century, this mainly depends on the fact that in the music of the Renaissance, including the liturgical songs, we were unable to find any composition dedicated to St. Mary Magdalene. |
