Abstract (english)
The essay explores the role of "charis" and "gratia" in a number of literary portraits drawn from late antique and medieval biographies, panegyrics, and hagiographic texts. In these texts, exceptional beauty and grace are often presented as evidence of a special relationship with the deity (however conceived), and are understood as a special gift ("charisma", or "donum") from God and, depending on the context, as a sign of moral virtue, nobility of birth or as an overflowing of spiritual beauty.
