For centuries after his death in the late twelfth century, Simon of Tournai, a master of theology in the Parisian schools, had a reputation for being an unbeliever punished by God with a stroke. This article gathers the eight known medieval sources for his stroke and examines them from a mythogenetic perspective to demonstrate how different authors writing with different purposes, genres, and biases recast the image of Simon as an unbeliever for their own moral or polemical programs. I argue that since Simon's stroke was interpreted as divine action, presenting him as sinful was required to preserve divine goodness. The article also discusses the representation of Simon as irate as an element of didactic intent against unbelief, blasphemy, pride, anger, and luxuria. The article revises the date of Simon's stroke from c. 1201 to the 1180s or very early 1190s.

图尔奈的西蒙中风:愤怒的不信者的形象

巴黎学校的神学大师图尔奈的西蒙在十二世纪末去世后的几个世纪里,一直以不信者而受到上帝中风的惩罚而闻名。本文收集了关于他的中风的八个已知的中世纪资料,并从神话发生的角度对它们进行了研究,以展示不同的作者如何以不同的目的、流派和偏见进行写作,从而将西蒙的形象重新塑造为一个不信者的形象,以适应他们自己的道德或辩论计划。我认为,既然西蒙的中风被解释为神圣的行动,那么就需要将他描述为有罪的,以维护神圣的善良。文章还讨论了西蒙愤怒的表现,作为反对不信、亵渎、骄傲、愤怒和奢侈的说教意图的元素。这篇文章将西蒙中风的日期从c修改为。1201 至 1180 年代或 1190 年代初。
