Revenant (medieval England)

Nazývaný aj: revenant, walking dead
Folklór a mýtyNemŕtvyRôzneZlá smrť alebo zlý pohrebStredovek

Twelfth-century English chroniclers, among them Geoffrey of Burton, Walter Map and William of Newburgh, record a cluster of cases in which a buried corpse walked at night and brought death to its neighbours. The stories are told as recent local news, with named bishops and archdeacons called in to rule on them. The remedies, digging up the body and beheading, burning or absolving it, are the same ones later used against vampires in central Europe. Scholars read these revenants as the product of a failed death, a person stuck between the living and the dead who has to be forcibly moved on.12

Zlá smrť alebo zlý pohreb
Clerical writers tie the return to a 'bad death': a sinful or excommunicate life, or dying suddenly without confession and last rites.
Ako sa ním stanete
A person of bad reputation dies unshriven or excommunicate and is buried, but the body does not stay down.
Ako sa pohybuje

The corpse leaves its grave at night, roams streets and houses, often with dogs barking after it, and is back in the tomb by dawn.

terénne poznámky

Čo hovoria zdroje

1

The chroniclers describe intact, sometimes blood-filled bodies, not apparitions12

2

Its presence corrupts the air and is blamed for epidemics12

3

William of Newburgh thought the cases were a recent phenomenon and too numerous to list12

4

Bishops disagreed over the cure: Hugh of Lincoln preferred absolution to burning12

5

Later accounts, such as a Clydesdale case in the Lanercost chronicle, show the belief persisting unevenly12
