Afoutou, Kwami Edem. "L'Ordre de Marshall : la construction des subjectivités dans l'espace éwé au Togo." Doctoral thesis, Université Laval, 2021. http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.11794/67972.
Full textThe construction of subjectivities in postcolonial areas remains a fairly complex theme to explore due to the coexistence within them of the domination of multiple sources of normativity. In the area occupied by the Ewe ethnic group in South Togo, the individual evolves in an environment where he is both challenged by the standards of his cultural universe, those of the globalized modernity, but also those of more structured spheres such as Christianity, Freemasonry, etc. The present research has examined the possible influences of Catholic subjectivity in such a context, problematizing the question in the Catholic initiatory association called the Order of Marshall. Using an ethnographic approach and on the basis of an interpretative method, I have shown that, in order to build themselves as Christian subjects, the members of the Marshallian Order are engaged in an effort to establish connections between situations that appear paradoxical at first. Such a mode of subjectivation is in line with the logic of the operation generally attributed to analogic ontology. The latter mobilizes a series of polarities in the way it organizes the world’s furniture. Marshallian subjectivity emerges both in a quest for reflexivity as well as in the search for sociality. At the same time as it is resolutely engaged in the quest for the knowledge that governs the world, this knowledge is organized into a game of well-protected secrets, which become a source of differential status between individuals. Marshallian Catholic subjectivity unfolds between a transcendence to which the individual is entirely devoted and a radical immanence that gives meaning to the subject’s commitments in the Order. Finally, while it covets a kind of autonomy, such subjectivity is built in a subjugation to God and His Word, to angelic entities, to saints, but also a certain submission to the elders of the Order. The very identification of the individual with God seems to take its meaning only in this context marked by the dichotomy of God versus Satan. Hence the central idea of this thesis, the Marshallian Catholic subject is built through a set of paradoxical practices, due to the evolution of its particular history. Conversion to Christianity, from this perspective, implies a logic, just as paradoxical. It leads to the idea of a continuity of self, at the same time as a gradual transformation of one's being following the Christian ideal.
Dono, Placide. "Les pratiques rituelles d'excision : données anthropologiques, débat éthique et implications pastorales." Strasbourg, 2009. http://www.theses.fr/2009STRA1055.
Full textThe thesis is entitled “Ritual clitoridectomy: anthropological assumptions, ethical debate and pastoral implications”. It consists of an ethical and theological discussion on what are clearly regrettable and undesirable practices, and of the need for dialogue with the relevant cultures. In these I discern both a threat and an opportunity concerning human dignity. The thesis falls into three parts. The first concentrates on the means of acquiring knowledge of these practices through anthropological and ethnological reports. Clitoridectomy is embedded in ancestral tradition as part of a heavily defended culture, and is as mark of sexual identity. It appears as impossible to challenge in traditional Africa. There is a strong pressure in African village to perpetuate this practice. He perspective encountered in Africa is different from the one which the West holds of this practice. In the West it is condemned and judged by law: it is seen as an affront to the dignity and the integrity of the human person. Unfortunately the criminalisation of clitoridectomy does not seem to be an effective means of achieving its eradication. The second part is an examination of the content of the myths and stories which serve to perpetuate the practice. The third part attempts to articulate and apply a theological perspective to these cultural and symbolic dimensions. It is a matter of taking people out of the grip of the imaginary and leading them to the symbolic and to another view of the world. A view that is not founded on physical clitoridectomy or circumcision, but on the “clitoridectomy of the heart” or the “circumcision of the heart. ”

Full textEn 2001, la déclaration de reconnaissance mentionne, parmi les signes de crédibilité des apparitions, « la journée du 15 août 1982 qui fut marquée notamment, contre toute attente, par des visions effroyables, qui dans la suite se sont avérées prophétiques au vu des drames humains vécus au Rwanda et dans l’ensemble des pays de notre région des Grands Lacs ». Cette lecture officielle qui confère un horizon de sens aux événements, instituant la prophétie en des termes choisis permettant d’y entrevoir le génocide comme l’hécatombe du choléra dans les camps de réfugiés du Congo, est diversement négociée par les acteurs locaux, même si la conviction de la réalisation d’une prophétie est quasi-unanime. Du point de vue des pèlerins, les apparitions demeurent relativement problématiques. Elles exigent de chacun qu’il négocie sa position en fonction d’une représentation de l’orthodoxie constamment réévaluée dans les limites de ce qui est expérimenté et affirmé comme une identité catholique. Cette difficulté est notamment due à la multiplicité des individus qui ont revendiqué ou revendiquent encore des visions ou apparitions, alors que seules trois jeunes filles ont été reconnues par l’Eglise catholique en 2001.
Après avoir soigneusement défini le cadre socio-historique des apparitions rwandaises, en abordant la question depuis le point de vue de voyants non reconnus - dont l’une expatriée en Belgique - et de ceux qui leur sont proches, la thèse propose une analyse des discours par lesquels ceux-ci se définissent et négocient la légitimité de leur pratique religieuse. Une attention particulière a été portée aux outils stéréotypés de la critique (sexualité, politique, vénalité…), mobilisés dans le cadre des tensions et conflits qui opposent différents acteurs individuels et collectifs. Par ailleurs, les mécanismes qui président aux rhétoriques de la construction de soi ont été mis en lumière, notamment par le biais des récits de guerre qui fondent une identité de survivant liée à la conviction d’une intervention mariale. Ce processus se confond souvent avec ceux qui président à la construction du pouvoir de la Vierge, et donc des voyants. Finalement, au travers de l’analyse des représentations touchant notamment à la prophétie du génocide et de la guerre civile, les nouveaux rapports au national se font jour, les violences des années nonante étant intégrées dans un schéma biblique qui opère un basculement significatif :parce que le Rwanda serait touché de plein fouet par la Mal, il a été choisi par Dieu et par la Vierge comme noyau de la Nouvelle Evangélisation. À travers l’analyse du rapport au divin, à l’autorité, aux représentations de la modernité que les mots des acteurs reflètent, c’est le catholicisme vécu qui s’éclaire à l’ombre du sanctuaire et de son appareil médiatique foisonnant, ce catholicisme empirique dont la richesse se renouvelle à chaque « enculturation » comme au passage des générations successives et dont il importe, pour l’anthropologie comme pour l’histoire du christianisme, d’approcher l’infinie variété.

Full textThe French religious and sexual landscapes share certain mutations that characterized a larger dynamic of secularization. They are structured not only by processes that diversify practices, multiply the available choices for action, and individualize norms, but also by the persistence of social frameworks that regulate behaviour. The state of religion in France is characterized by the Catholic faith’s loss of institutional influence and a reduction in church membership, a growing number of people stating no religious affiliation, and the specific position of Islam. The latter is a young, dynamic religion that is often understated and racialized in social space. These changes—and the differing histories of Catholicism and Islam in France—explain and interrogate the high public and media visibility of a religious fringe concerned with questions of gender and sexuality. To better understand these phenomena, the thesis examines the links between gender, sexuality and religion in France since the 1970s, on the basis of the sexual practice and representations of Catholics and Muslims. My analysis uses two types of material: three major population surveys on sexuality in France (1970, 1992, 2006) and one on conjugality (2013), together with biographical interviews with respondents who identify as Catholics and Muslims. The combination of these research materials provides a comparative perspective on the development of sexual behaviour among women and men according to their religiosity.The range of sexual behaviour among individuals, whether Catholic, Muslim or non-affiliated, is wide and diversified. Practices (first sexual experience, masturbation, pornography) are becoming more similar between Catholics and the non-affiliated, while Muslims’ sexuality is characterized by major gender differences and practices related to their minorized position in social space (such as men’s use of prostitutes). The perceptions of family and homosexuality fall into three major patterns, according to the respondents’ attachment to life as a couple, childbearing and heterosexuality. Religious commitment to some extent determines these positions, which are also situated within broader life stories and sexual experience.The thesis also demonstrates how women and men’s religious and sexual trajectories are connected on the basis of their life stories and place in power relationship (class, gender, race). In some cases, religion may be a resource (cultural, social or symbolic) for finding a partner and underplaying or reinforcing processes of social selection. The research interviews throw light on the ways in which respondents appropriate their religion, in what they say about it and about their behaviour, and the ways they subjectivate norms and (re)construct them in hindsight as they review their life experiences.The thesis offers new insight into the process of secularization in France. The sexuality of Catholics and Muslims provides an original view of the way men and women establish themselves as subjects. It sheds new light on the various forms of social normativity in a society where normative sources are multiple and non-hierarchical. Finally, it demonstrates that religion is only socially significant in a society structured by gender, class, race, and sexual inequalities

Full textHow can we presently speak of chastity in the perspective of catholic marriage when the notion of chastity is today widely unknown? Beginning with a sociological survey, confronting the opinions of French and Polish youth about chastity, the thesis then progresses through documents of catholic tradition and emerges in the humanities domain. The Church's Magisterium will be studied through its biblical and patristic sources, in an historical perspective. In any case, chastity is a polysemic notion, historically misinterpreted. Continence, abstinence, virginity and purity are part of its semantic field, although the concept of chastity cannot be reduced exclusively to one or the other of these terms. Chastity remains an essential value for men and women and participates in the integration of their sexuality. Chastity pushes towards a relation with an adequate distance. Chastity is a path towards fulfilment, a crest path needing unrelenting attempts to maintain equilibrium

Full textMerging historical and theological discourses, the idea is to understand how at the end of the 20th century the Roman Catholic Church placed greater emphasis on the idea of shared responsibility for social ills and undertook, in celebrating the year 2000, to ask for forgiveness for all past and present faults, with a view to renewing evangelisation. From the interventions of John Paul II and the churches in their national circumstances, the ecclesial institution revisited the history of Salvation dogma in the light of a theology of forgiveness and grace and wrote a new history of the Roman Catholic Church which offers its readers the vision of humanity reconciled within and by the Church. In parallel to Roman Catholic repentance, other (civil) structures have taken the collective forgiveness track, i. E. Political and historical, and mounted a certain show of repentance. The proliferation throughout the world of these scenes of repentance and forgiveness at the end of the second millennium were indicative of the universal urgency of memory and a deep desire to rebuild the human community

Full textThe social dimension of the Eucharist allows us to explore the relation between the Eucharist, fount and apex of all the whole Christian life according to the teaching of Vatican Council II, and the commitment in daily life for the construction of a fairer and more brotherly world. If the liturgical, biblical and patristic renewals have allowed to rediscover the social dimension of the Eucharist, a dynamic vision of this sacrament proves to be an invaluable input to Christian communities today. The eucharistic community regularly challenged by the widening gap between the consumer society and starving peoples, can Christian remain deaf and blind to the situation of the poor and the humble to whom Christ is identified and continue to speak of eternal salvation ? Eating without sharing goes against eucharistic life. The Eucharist, in its essence, has a social meaning. In everyday life, worshipping should find expression in practical actions. The coherence between the mystery celebrated and daily life request that the active participation of the people in the liturgical action gives a significant impetus to an active participation of the Christians in the world. As loving one’s neighbor leads to an intelligence of the Eucharist, it is advisable to live this sacrament as a project of solidarity in a world-sized family. The ontology of the eucharistic substance leads to an ethics of the commitment and sharing. The Eucharist should go as far as a fraternity of commitment
Dubrulle, Luc. "Mgr Rodhain et le Secours catholique : une figure sociale de la charité." Paris 4, 2007. http://www.theses.fr/2007PA040048.
Full textFifty years after its German neighbour, the Roman Catholic Church in France endowed itself in 1946 with a central organisation of charity, called Secours Catholique. At the end of the Second World War, enhanced by his founding of a General Chaplaincy for prisoners of war, Canon Jean Rhodain (b. 1900), was appointed Secretary General of this new charity organisation, of which he was to remain “the boss” until he died in 1977. Substantiated by the scrutiny of a thousand or so written documents of Mgr Rhodain and the spheres of action of Secours Catholique, the present study is both historical and theological. Its purpose is to portray the social figure of charity that comes out of this investigation. At first conducive, in a pedagogical approach, to a view of integral charity, as should be practiced by the whole Church and all mankind, this figure has been inclined, year after year, to differentiate itself as a more and more efficient central organisation of charity. Though attempting to rehabilitate charity by way of an intransigent doctrinal reaction, Mgr Rhodain, by such practical achievements as the creation of prototype cities, has facilitated has facilitated the re-establishment of the credibility of charity in a secularized society

Full textThis thesis is based on a survey into a sample of 52 women officials in national or diocesan services, in catholic movements, in universities of theology and in religious communities (major superiors). It tries to explain the contradiction between the minority participation of women in those responsibilities, associated to a precarious status, and the absence of a public and critical expression of women in French Catholic church. The observation of a very light knowledge of feminist theologies has directed the analysis towards the French catholic feminism characterised by its weakness. In reality, these women are much more influenced by feminine catholic movements as ACGF or “Guides de France” which educated them to fulfil public functions in civil society as well as in church and which contributed to equilibrate relationships between laymen and clergy. These women are also familiar to the new feminism proposed by John Paul II which exalts the feminine genius and value their specific role in the Church. They seem to be postfeminist in accordance with Alain Touraine ‘s analysis much more than victim of a symbolic domination (according to Pierre Bourdieu). The comparison with catholic women in other national catholic churches (Quebec, Belgium, Holland) who fulfil similar responsibilities confirm the importance, at the same time, of the national feminists movements, the solidarity between catholic and non catholic women, the solidarity between nuns and non consecrated women, the relations between State and Church, to explain the ability of women to elaborate a critical expression about their place in religious work. The comparison with French women ministers in Protestant churches and the first priests women in Anglican Church in England, underline the link between the opening of the function of priest up to women and the end of the tendency to regard the priest as sacred and demonstrate that women becoming priests don’t look after masculine power but try to make this job more feminine, which means to make it more human, more brotherly

Full textDeveloped around the question: « What are the bishops’ discursive strategies for turning agents into actors of desired change, and hence into peacemakers », research shows from the rhetorical analysis of eight speeches by the bishops of the CENCO, the impact and pragmatic of their speeches in the reconstruction of the peace in the DRC. To be based on an empirical basis the socio-political crisis in the DRC (1990-2010), the rhetorical analysis of the episcopal word, emerging in the pragmatics of communication as elaborated in the theory of C. Perelman’s argumentation, in the argumentative analysis of R. Amossy’speech and P. Charaudeau’s political discourse, deals with the reconstruction of the Nation, the consolidation of peace and the prospects for a peaceful, just and prosperous democratic Congo. The analysis raises two major issues: it pursues a pragmatic aim in order to produce an effective impact on the audience and constructs new meanings, precisely, a new system of values on which to build the Nation. Putting the focal point on the values of the ethos: paradigms of « must-do » and of « bring-into-being », the research is inscribed in the moral theology, precisely theological ethic. These structuring values are normative principles, principles of reflection and anchors that the theological and ethical discourse on peace. To the counter values that threaten peace, analysis proposes, starting from the elaborations of P. Ricoeur on responsibility and coherence, and of M. Foucault’s on truth, an ethic of responsibility and an ethic of coherence backed by eths ethic of truth. Peace is a civic responsibility, a component of the ethics of fraternity built on the ethics of truth. The alethic generate the ethic of coherence among the recipients. The correctness of discourse the authenticity of life, the conformity of speech to the way of living and acting, the ethics of coherence as a mode of sincerity and authenticity of life, make it possible to build peace and self-Homonoïa in the DRC.

The dominant idea is that catholicism is the strongest national bond in France, the essential element of its heritage, and even more a necessity for its preservation and its prosperity

Full textThis thesis fits into research carried out into the history of how man considers animals. It is centred around the viewpoint of the clergy and spreads over four centuries in order to outline the transition fron medieval sensitivity to our modern-day vision. From 1600 to 1670 the point of view of the clergy resulted in a strong sense of nearness to man, making considerable use of him in religion; from 1670 to 1830 the anima. , reduced to the role of a machine and absent from religious considerations, found itself diminished in value; the period from 1830 to 1940 saw a return to the 17th century position and the emergence of a minority animalfriendly mentality; since 1940, whereas this mentality has become much stronger, the majority of clergymen have committed themselves to going in the opposite direction through a radical divorce from the animal world. Two opposing rends have comme out into the open : a movement on the part of man to distinguish himself clearly from nature since the 17th century; a recognition of the specific nature of the animal world as well as an increasing intention towards respect since the 19th century

Full textA research dealing with the repression of sexuality and the representatio9ns of male and female sexes in the catholic church of brazil. These subjects have been evaluated within the catholic action movement, in particular with reference to its youth branches representated by secondary and university students (1950-1967). And within the movement which succeded to it - the theology of liberation and the basic ecclesiastical communities. Catholicism has historically created some difficulties concerning human sexuality. Regarding the relations between sexes. One may find a certain social hegemony attribued to men and an ambiguous mystification about the women. This militant catholicism which has been analysed, in this thesis, has maintained some of this ambiguities concerning sexuality and sex relations: the sexual unification of "the human species" referred to as masculine gender; sexuality is condemned while celibacy and virginity are praised; eve, the women who "seduces", is condemned, whereas mary, the wom@an who "saves", becomes a myth. In spite of that , these movements have apparently surpassed these unspoken questions though the political consciousness given by the teaching of the gospel and througyh a certain idealisation of the loving couple "struggling" for the constitution of the christian family and the irruption of the social revolution

Full textFormal contacts between the Roman Catholic Church and students of healthcare, especially medical students, either in Catholic Fellowships in Universities (CFUs) under the auspices of chaplains, or in Centres for Mutual Support in Medical Studies run by Jesuits (CMSMSJs), as Laennec Centre in Paris, began in France during the last quarter of the XIXth century. The number of these contacts in CFUs reached a peak in the middle of the XXth century but thereafter suffered a steep decline. This was at a time when the number of medical students had actually increased. In contrast, attendance at CMSMSJs, which admit students irrespective of their religion, remained at a maximal level. This doctoral thesis is based on surveys of 31 CFUs and 3 CMSMSJs in which contacts currently take place. It examines the pastoral, theological and bioethical aspects of these contacts and considers how they might be facilitated. In the CFUs, obstacles to pastoral contact include a general decrease in religious observance and increasing pressures of time on medical students. In the CMSMSJs, attendance by students, whatever their religion, remains maximal owing to the excellent study support provided. However, the pastoral contact with Catholic students is confronted with similar difficulties. Pressure of time remains the main obstacle to discussions on the theology of healthcare (problems relating to sanctity of human life, illness, suffering and death). The same obstacle hinders participation by medical students in discussions justifying Roman Catholic bioethical principles and comparison of these principles with those of other religions. Despite these difficulties, almost impossible to overcome, it is recommended that contacts between these Roman Catholic bodies and medical students should be maintained as far as possible

Thanks to the zeel of those rwandan catechists, the white fathers were able to cover the whole country through a large number of subsidiaries. But scarcely remunerated, they took advantage of the position of the white fathers to exploit the population and substitute themselves to the chiefs. This contributed to darken the image of the mission. Without sufficient formation, they were rather recruting edherents than doing the proper office of evangelisation. Also, at the beginning of the 1900s, they were unable to cope with the economic and social developpement of the country as well as with the new demands of their office. Thus, as from 1952, the need for better formation and more remuneration was felt

Full textThe very notion of sacredness is most relevant in the geographical approach to religions. From that perspective, a sacred space can be found in the inner space organisation of Catholic churches. This liturgical sacred space is no doubt exemplified by the medieval church. Then, with the advent of modernity, church inner space lost some of its sacred features, especially in the aftermath of the Second Vatican Council liturgical reform. The traditionalists’ opposition to the reform actually has to do with the reorganisation of church space, and can thus be related to the contemporary debate over sacredness and sacred space in Roman Catholic liturgy

Full textSince vatican ii, the number of social activities of the church of benin has increased, particularly in the diocese of abomey. But unlike past missionary activities, the purpose is not longer to evangelize at all costs. It is the human being, be as he may, who is supported, "conscientised" and made to realize what is as stake today and in the future. The problem of elitism can only be resolved by a heightened awareness of the villages populations. But the instruction given to the young in the centers opened by the bishop of abomey is intented to be a search of an identity, the new generation having to operate the positive mutations of the rural areas ; similarly, it aspires to the "change of the hearts", the church considering that no economical and political action would be efficient if the benin people do not learn how to love each other and to love their country (the bishops' letter, lent 1989). His bishop agboka's action while creating the conditions of modernization of the informal and agricultural districts, shows that in order to mobilize the african rural population, it is necessary to find chiefs who are honest, skilful and particularly sensitive for the need of each locality. The political and administrative elits, unable to impose the transformations they consider as necessary, often evoke the peasants "resistance to progress". No reformer can be efficient if he does not take into account the populations. . .

Full textThe Catholic Church was from the start quite proactive in the way it tackled the tremendous growth in population in major cities which characterised post-war France. The example of the city of Lyon is particularly interesting as it showcases a large variety of different head-on initiatives to bring urbanization under control. Indeed, the beginning of the 1950’s saw the birth of a totally new idea of town planning coming from a variety of different movements such as Economie et Humanisme, expansion committee, diocese-related associations. These endeavours when brought together proved that the Catholic community had gained urban expertise as far as housing, regional planning and town planning were concerned.Meanwhile a vast survey into religious practices and a number of land modifications showed that people at the archbishop’s palace had a firmer grasp on the specificity of the city of Lyon within the diocese. From the late 1950’s to the early 1970’s building new places of worship became a priority for the religious authorities. 1957saw the creation of both a sociology Institute at the Catholic University and a diocesan new parish council the aim of which was to secure financing, to stimulate worshippers’ mobilisation and to spot the best possible locations for the new churches. From the mid-sixties onwards urban growth took centre stage (journals, congresses, roman declarations) as the Catholic Church realised both its scale and its impact on society. This sparked up numerous attempts at setting up an urban pastoral in Lyon. During the 1970’s the diocese’s church-building plan started losing momentum and the Catholic Church found a more secular activism in the defence of city dwellers’ struggles for a better living environment

Full textIt is appropriate to choose to study the institution of the Church and the individualization of belief using scientific research with regard to canon law. This entails dealing with the question following the multidisciplinary approach adopted by studies of church law. Such an investigation throws light on how civil and church societies are interdependent and belong together. The first part of the study, taking a social-theological view, seeks to describe individualization, on the one hand, and the reality of religion, on the other. It endeavours to show the contradictory interaction of these two themes and suggests how this may be resolved. Here the principal outlines of religious reality are examined, the exposition relying on a study of church forms and traditions. Our approach is phenomenological and theological : it is here that the individualization of belief comes in. The second part introduces the authoritative standard of law : to what extent the Magisterium influences the way the day-to-day life of the institution is conducted? The Church’s study of doctrine has led it to draw up a code, keeping in mind the concepts of the separation of “Church and State” or religious pluralism. The result is evident : the ecclesia is turning towards individualization, and this result in a tendency towards laicization, even de-christianization. The study shows this is happening. Interdependence and a mutual association are necessary, as much for the Church as for the society, and these belong together in the perspectives of both canon and normative law. What future lies ahead for their association? Can we suggest how it may happen? No matter how complex the questions raised, be they theological, dogmatic, sociological and canonical, bringing about this double association must be an objective for the believer of today
Teinturier, Sara. "L'enseignement privé dans l'entre-deux-guerres : socio-histoire d'une mobilisation catholique." Thesis, Rennes 1, 2013. http://www.theses.fr/2013REN1G026.
Full textIn France, during the interwar period, Catholics ceaselessly claimed public financial support for their schools, which were in a particularly precarious situation. Private Catholic schools subsisted thanks to their teachers who subsumed their hard working conditions to their faith. The strong doctrine of the Catholic Church in educational matters and the acceptance of prescribed roles within the institution were key to maintain a Catholic education system. This claim went alongside a polymorphous activism. Three attitudes prevailed: first, there where the advocates of the realization of Catholic unity, whether in opposition to the political regime or enrolling in the republican legality; then appeared a new movement which demanded the insertion of Catholicism into the modern world. The rejection or the acceptance of the public school system and the definition of private education and of its role, highlighted the issue for the Church: the acceptance or rejection of the pluralisation of French society and of the Catholic opinion. In the 1920’s prevailed the clericalist educational utopia of a Christian society of which Catholic schools would be the spearhead. The 1930’s saw a paradoxical reconfiguration: in the same time that bishops took the initiative of creating a National Committee for private education in 1931, the declericalization of Catholic action was confirmed. In doing so, Catholic militancy which enabled the maintenance of schools, was also responsible for the politicization of the ecclesial scope and, ultimately, of its secularization

Full textToday, the matrimonial link between a man and a woman in France most often results from a decision solely based on their own will. Yet many young adults who were christened in their childhood but who do not feel they fully belong to the Christian community, ask for a religious ceremony on their wedding day. Is this coherent with what the Scriptures tell us about the two newly wed who become one ? This research opens with an observation on the values that the bride & groom want their relationship to be about and confronts them with values of today's social and cultural context. There appears to be an aspiration to the effects of Christian weddings but the latter is never fully realized due to weak elaboration. The ultimate experience of encountering love that leads to being married for life can find its way by being engulfed in a greater experience still : that of God's love for mankind as can be found in the holy Bible. And this is what wedding preparation retreats are offering

Full textMarriage is included in the list of sacraments which was drawn up in the twelfth century ; but it is treated distinctly - something which testifies, among other things, to the difficulty in determining the minister of the sacrament. Three centuries of debate from the sixteenth to the end of the nineteenth centuries between theologians who held that the minister is the priest and those who held it to be the couple themselves produced no definitive conclusion. In order to settle the issue, this thesis first investigates how the question was posed during the mediaeval and modern periods after which it turns to the theology of the liturgy, putting the question into its original context - the celebration of the liturgy - thus reviewing the theology of marriage and placing within it the respective roles played by both the married couple and the ordained minister in constituting the sacrament of marriage

Full textA glance of the current events of this Church brings to light that the collaboration between magisterial authorities and theologians involved with the task of doctrinal and catechetical education of the Roman Catholic Church experiences some difficulties, especially in more diverse and secularized societies. Sometimes theological research contributes to put the endangerment of the ecclesial communion or its cohesiveness with regard to the faith and moral theology. The instruction of the Roman Curie Donum veritatis of May 24th, 1990 enters in doctrine and in the procedure of regulation of the exercise of the freedom and the responsibility of the catholic theologian and the ecclesiastic to be met to ensure full communion. They are the criteria of orthodoxy, orthopraxy, ecclesial membership and communion.The question of the canonical status of theologians is debated and the catholic authority is obliged to specify the doctrine and the status of the catholic theologian. Does the code of Latin canon law of 1983 foresee rules for the regulation of the mission of the theologian according to the requirement of full ecclesial communion? A thesis in canon law was necessary to provide an initial assessment of the vocation of the catholic theologian, the institution of catholic theology, and the status of catholic theologians under Canon law. How does canonicity assist a faithful who, by the acquisition of recognized skills, wants to become a catholic theologian? How does one evaluate the suitability of the applicant? How to grant a candidate the status of theologian under Canon law and, if necessary, withdraw such status for the good of the Church? How does one guarantee the consciousness and the freedom of the catholic theologian? In case of differences of opinion or disagreement, how does one qualify this situation? Thus, the theologian enjoys liberties recognized by his Church but within the limits of the duty of communion described in canon # 209 § 1 of the Latin Code of 1983 and canon # 12 § 2 of the Code of the Oriental Churches’ Canons

Full textIsolated in the field of the international relationships since Rome was taken by the italians in september 20th 1870, the holy see tried to take again an active part in the first world war. But, despite its constant will to work out for the restoration of peace, it did not succeed either in preventing the war to spread out or in taking its share to conclude it. Pope benedict xv, because of his impartiality, was rather misunderstood by people who were expecting an ennemy's final condemnation. Mutual dialogue still remaindes difficult. Even if all the present opponents aknowledged his humanitarian action, they opposed, because of religious and political reasons, the holy see's diplomatic steps, his peace programme in particular, as developed in the note addressed to the belligerents on august 1st 1917. Nevertheless, this obvious failure makes it clear that the papacy within the world of peace treaties found the opportunities to re-assert and sometimes spread its influence thanks to the net it had set in the conflict years

Full textCreated in 1945, the Catholic Center for French Intellectuals defined itself by what it successively accepted and rejected. Concerned with elevating wordly culture to the level of religious culture, it adopted starting in the late 1940s a more reflective dimension, seeking to establish dialog between modernity and Christianity. It organized, then, original intellectual activities based on interdisciplinarity and dialog with intellectulas, both believers and nonbelievers. This work thus proposes to study the attitude of a specific group within the framework of a double chronology : first, a cultural chronology wherein, between 1945 and 1975, blossomed successive modernities , and a religious chronology marked by the intransigence of Pius XII, the aggiornamento of Vatican II, and the post-Conciliar crisis. It thus places itself at the interface of the cultural and the religious, through the study of the collective itinerary of a specific intelligentsia which, most of time, preferred the stage of expertise, and more rarely opted for commitment. The disappearance of this forum for reflection in the middle of the 1970s underscores at once the crisis of the intellectual model such as it was established following the Second World War, and the implosion of French Catholicism. This work will study the intellectual milieus solicited by the forum for reflection by using the instruments of analysis developed for the study of these milieus, but it will seek just as much to take into account the content of the theological, philosophical, political and even literary reflection formulated during these thirty years. This double analysis will enable us to see the degree to which this intelligentsia opened itself to modernity, while at the same time keeping its originality within the French clergy

Full textThe thesis offers, by the analysis of one of its crucial moments, an original interpretation of the relationship between Catholicism and Nation. Until now, historians have interpreted the legitimization/sanctification of the Great War by the European Catholic churches as a form of yielding, or concession. Anxious to demonstrate their 'patriotism' (and hence escape decades of exclusion from European lay politics), they conveniently forgot their pacifism just as they did their internationalism, as happened in the case of the summer 1914 collapse of the Second International. However, a very different picture of how the Catholic churches adhered to the Great War emerges from an analysis of the acts of consecration to the Sacred Heart. Practices of the Christianising of war and the Nations involved in fighting it speak not of concession but rather of 'action' (John L. Austin), of a symbolic reconquering, consequently suggesting that we reconsider the relationship between Catholicism and Nation, and also the integration of Catholics within the Nation-State in Italy and France in terms of 'hegemony'. A study in both histoire croisée and comparative history; this thesis not only encompasses the rituals (and the 'dreams') of French and Italian Catholics, but also the reactions of the Kingdom of Italy and the French Republic, in addition to anticlerical opinion. It aims to grasp the glances thrown between each of these 'actors', and also my own 'observer's gaze' - with its own specific cultural background and way of relating to the 'actors' I study

Full textNous connaissons bien les mutations des rapports des Québécois au catholicisme dans le processus de sécularisation des années 1960. Si tous s’entendent pour dire que cette période fut des plus marquantes au plan religieux, ses répercussions créent aujourd’hui une situation sans précédent trop souvent ignorée : chaque génération qui arrive au seuil de la vie adulte est de plus en plus « sécularisée ». Que ces jeunes n’aient pas fait l’expérience d’un catholicisme structurant et imprégnant la culture commune a des impacts majeurs sur le paysage socioreligieux québécois. Comment se configure le religieux et s’articule le sens de la vie chez les jeunes adultes? Quels sont leurs rapports au catholicisme et aux institutions du sens? Prenant appui sur des données empiriques recueillies lors d’entretiens et d’observations auprès de jeunes âgés entre 18 et 29 ans, nos explorations visent à cerner la configuration de l’imaginaire religieux contemporain. Pour ce faire, nous abordons la définition de ce temps de vie qu’est la jeunesse, les croyances, les valeurs et le rapport au catholicisme. Ces analyses, une fois confrontées à certains référents théoriques, nous permettent de mieux saisir la dynamique de l’imaginaire religieux dans une société et une culture de consommation. Il nous a été également permis de mener, simultanément, une réflexion épistémologique concernant l’étude du religieux dans son rapport et son apport à la sociologie.
The process of secularization in Quebec during the 1960s changed people’s relation to religion, notably catholicism. Though this period is one of the most significant regarding religious transformation, this fact is often forgotten. Each new generation which enters adulthood is more and more secularized. Young people do not necessarily experience catholicism in its institutionalized forms or on a daily basis. This reality has had a major impact on the religious heritage and social fabric of Quebec society. How do young people experience religion, and does it give meaning to their lives? How do they relate to catholicism and its institutions? This research explores the forms of religious imagination experienced by young people of contemporary Quebec. Empirical data culled from interviews with young adults between the ages of 18 and 29, and participatory observations of their activities form the basis of the research. Youth culture, beliefs, values and their rapport with catholicism constitute the topics explored. A close analysis of the data highlights the dynamics between the religious imagination of individuals and their society and culture immersed in consumerism. This research also focuses on the epistemological link between the study of religion and the discipline of sociology.
