spelling I28-R145-3624_oai2025-11-17 Zurutuza, Hugo Andrés 2017-07-04 Fulgentius, monk, bishop and “forced traveller” was born about the year 468 at Telepte (modern-day Medinet-el-Kedima), Tunisia, into a senatorial family. This reputation helped him to acquire a post as a procurator or tax recollector of Byzacena. He quicky grew tired of the material life. This, together with hiis sudies of religion, particularly a sermon of Augustine of Hippo on Psalm XXXVI, determined him to become a monk. In 508 was persuaded to take the post of bishop of the maritime city of Ruspe, but was soon banished to Sardinia with others bishops who did not hold the Arian position. In 515, he returned to Carthage, having been summoned there by Thrasamund for a public debate with their Arian opponents, but then renewed complaints from the local Arian clergy caused him to banish Fulgentius back to Sardinia in 520 and he founded un monastery with scriptorium at Cagliari (Carales) This scriptorium will become an important center of production, transcription and dissemination of religious texts in the Mediterranean space of late Antiquity and the early Middle Ages.  Fulgencio, monje, obispo y “viajero forzoso” nació en el año 468 en Thelepte (actual Medinet-el-Kedima), Túnez, en el seno de una familia senatorial. Su reputación lo llevó a obtener un cargo de procurator o sea recaudador de impuestos de la Bizacena. Pero pronto se alejó de la vida material y sus estudios de religión y, en particular, la lectura del salmo XXXVI de Agustín de Hipona, lo determinaron a convertirse en un monje. En 508 fue persuadido para aceptar el cargo de obispo de la ciudad marítima de Ruspe, pero tiempo después fue desterrado por el rey Trasamundo a Cerdeña con otros obispos refractarios a la posición arriana. En 515, retornó a Cartago, habiendo sido convocado por el mismo Trasamundo para un debate público con sus opositores doctrinarios, pero las renovadas quejas del clero local arriano, llevaron al rey vándalo a desterrarlo nuevamente en Cerdeña en 520. Allí Fulgencio fundó un monasterio con scriptorium en Cagliari (Carales). Este scriptorium será un importante centro de producción, transcripción y difusión de textos religiosos en el espacio mediterráneo de la Antigüedad Tardía y Alta Edad Media.  application/pdf https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/AcHAM/article/view/3624 10.34096/aciham.v12.3624 spa Universidad de Buenos Aires, Facultad de Filosofía y Letras https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/AcHAM/article/view/3624/3312 Actas y comunicaciones del Instituto de Historia Antigua y Medieval; Vol. 12: (2016-2017); 18-26 1669-7286 Mediterranean travels monks scriptorium codices Mediterráneo viajes monjes scriptorium códices Monks travelers in the Mediterranean from Late Antiquity to the Early Middle Ages.
