| Resumo: | Taking a medieval Egyptian Islamic hagiography as its reference point, this study explores dimensions of religious textuality with special interest in the materiality of intertextual sources. Focusing our study on the material and artwork status of the text as object, we begin to retrieve a neglected component of textual studies. Drawing on Genette’s idea of the paratext, with its open-ended and evolving conception of textuality, along with the appearance of these same texts as “material-texts” within the hagiography, we may cross the divide between discursive textuality and material culture. This traverse is made possible in the text through the performative and embodied treatments of intertext material. |
