The article is devoted to the Passion from Tegernsee written in the first half of the 11 th century, and especially to how the hagiographer presented a mission of St Adalbert (Wojciech) among Prussians. The mission was described as carried out to the rhythm of canonical hours, while an attempt to evangelize the pagan Prussians was pictured as the dedication of the church. In such a depiction, the pastoral care and public cult of God are one and the same – the concept extremely rare in early medieval hagiography. |
