Les etudes reunies dans ce volume examinent les possibilites et les modalites de transmission du sacre, des lors qu'il n'est plus considere comme objet exclusif du discours religieux et qu'il apparait lie a la creation litteraire. Il s'agit de voir comment les ecrivains en renouvellent le sens selon les periodes et les traditions. L'approche envisagee n'est pas seulement litteraire, mais aussi philosophique, sociologique et theologique.

Arthur S. Turberville details the Vatican's doctrine underlying the violent Roman Inquisition, which was used to suppress all opponents to the Roman Catholic Church's well-established religion. This book is not a detailed history of the Inquisition, but rather an excellent survey of literature on the Church's doctrines on this practice.

Ce volume recueille des etudes d'oeuvres quebecoises et francaises considerees dans leur relation au fait religieux. A partir des ecrits des jesuites et des moniales en Nouvelle-France, en passant par les modeles offerts par Moliere et Chateaubriand, on suit le parcours, sinueux et parfois paradoxal, de l'autonomisation progressive du champ litteraire.

Cette perspective diachronique et...

Das Buch bietet eine systematische Darstellung des Patroziniums, naherhin des Kirchenpatroziniums sowie des titulus ecclesiae gema c. 1218 CIC/83.

Der Autor analysiert speziell die rechtshistorische Evolution sowie die geltende universalkirchenrechtliche...

This book traces a recovery of iconographic religious experience and theology in the nineteenth century. In contrast to a logocentric religious focus, which privileges texts and their analysis, an iconographic focus emphasizes the visual and narrative attributes of religion. The introduction sets the stage by discussing the profound disquietude in the wake of Britain's Religious Census of 1851, along with the various responses to a perceived decline in religiosity. Two subsequent chapters deal with the resurgence of iconographic religion from the perspective of theology proper, arguing...

Western culture is degenerate. Conservative Christians have exerted considerable energy fighting cultural decline, but their efforts amount to minor skirmishes compared to the war that needs to happen with the church and her teaching of divorce and remarriage.

The blame for our cultural depravity has generally been directed toward liberalism, feminism, and the homosexual agenda. Contra Mundum Swagger debunks that view. Christians shouldn't be directing their efforts in fighting these battles at first. It's a strategic mistake. Rather Christians ought to destroy the idols in...
