Full textThe research I conducted was made possible by a process of recovery of unpublished correspondence between Jacques Maritain and Georges Rouault. The fund Rouault-Maritain is currently located in the Archives of the Foundation Georges Rouault in Paris. The correspondence of Rouault is the result of a donation of Antoinette Grunelius Isabelle Rouault, coming in part from the Archives of Maritain Kolbsheim. The hard work of recovery of the matches, which lasted three years, was made possible thanks to the active assistance of the grandchildren of Rouault in Paris. The correspondence consists of 104 letters (some of these very long) and a smaller corpus of letters (30) between the Maritain and family Rouault. The first difficulty that the survey was required to decipher the handwriting of Georges Rouault, of difficult intelligibility. It is therefore repertoriata a grid to orient the morphology of the characters tend adopted by Rouault so as to favor the slow work of understanding. All letters have been cataloged chronologically and through an identification code. The letters are cited according to this code, and the context shows always the sender and the recipient. Another difficulty encountered is the syntactic structure of the correspondence is not clear and sometimes wrong; the speed and urgency are the recurrent features of the epistolary style of Rouault, at least against Maritain. This difficulty has therefore given rise to extra work that involved the whole family Rouault to provide a precise meaning to each letter. The third phase of the work has been to the contextualization of each letter by identifying the circumstances and implicit allusions. All this was accompanied by explanatory footnotes. For the case of the letters of Jacques Maritain, the situation was much smoother thanks to the well-known calligraphy clarity of the philosopher. The correspondence has unearthed new information has emerged that make substantial additions biographical and that illuminate many aspects of the fraternal relationship and friendship between Georges Rouault and Jacques Maritain and their respective families. The last part of the research is focused in the analysis of the correspondence and in the discovery of 4 convergence of poetic philosophical nature between Rouault and Maritain since the new aspects found in the biography and letters from their works.

Full textJacques Maritain and Henry Bars kept up a lengthy and rich correspondence. Both writers applied their thought to philosophy, spirituality and poetry. As the author of an important essay about Maritain's thought "Maritain in our time", and of a book about the writer's and spiritual interpreter's work "Literature and its conscience", Henry Bars represents the independant searcher who will agree solely with what he thinks is true. He was a great admirer of the thomistic philosopher, and still all his life he remained a solitary thinker. A deep friendchip liked him to Jacques Maritain. Nevertheless, they had intellectual and spiritual disagreements. Their relationship was also marked by personal tragedies - bereavements, depressions - echoed in a few letters. After Maritain's death in 1973, Bars became a reference, a master whose words were often determining. He died in 1991

Full textThe purpose of the proposed research is the analysis of the concept of person through its main promoters, such as Jacques Maritain. The philosophy of the person and the community, more usually known as personalism, belongs to a school of thought which is now being reestimation. The difficulty of this process, because it meets some resistance to own intellectual circles, a fortiori the requirement to wear the discourse in the public square, in order to attract attention to the challenges of humanizing reports inter-citizens (intra-chives) and relations between civil society and the state. The method of analysis will focus on the concept of the person studied both as regulative idea that as a key concept in the history of Western thought owes a double heritage constituted by the philosophical tradition and the theological tradition of the faith after revealed in God. To understand what is emerging from the experience socio-political and cultural life, I will proceed with categories logico-philosophical thought forms classicism, which provide a methodological framework in relation to the requirement of job redesign movements face trial development of "delegitimization" of the State legislation powers directly on many aspects of "private" (one thinks, for example, the phenomenon of "lex mercatoria". The survey will be conducted along two axes on the speech. One of the history axis, starting the modern sense of State, will travel backwards and summarizes the stages of formation of the latte to reach its redefinition in the light of natural law. The requirement is urgent at the present time where both exterior and interior of the state, the positive law clearly shows its limitations, since it tends to limit the human person confined spaces, arriving to betray the very goals that the constitutional state was set: to ensure a proper structure in its fundamental freedoms required for the essential heritage of the human person, and circumscribing and limiting , in return, power or, at least, its abuses. The other axis systematically arise the question of the relation of man to the modern era, with the state pluralistic democracies, pluralism means that by not ethical relativism or values, but pluralism of ideas, time, traditions and languages, the cultural roots of the old continent now "lost". The Personalism as autonomous philosophy but basically steeped in Christian values, seems adequate of the relationship between man and the state in which the consciousness acquired human survival of the XXI century is linked to the central role that European civilization has always placed the human person. This focus, as we find in the Christian idea of man created in the image and likeness of God, the concept of the philosophy Renaissance humanist or secular humanism of the Enlightenment. The secular state and religious rights can coexist just around the idea of human rights and of the person

Full textThe philosophical path of Jacques Maritain is complex and ambiguous. A first approach can give an impression of continuity in his thinking. But nevertheless Maritain has not been faithfull to his first political writings. In those times of friendships with l'Action Française, he tooks the option of the counter-revolution. Starting from a pessimist conception of humanity, he founds his politic upon christianicism. He puts all his hopes on a tempered monarchy illustrated by the reign of Saint Louis. This one, giving the primacy to the spiritual. However in december 1927, Rome condemns the Action Française. Two years later is published Religion et culture, which makes known a new identity of the political thought of Maritain. Then, he develops an original conception of the man and the society, half-way between his intransigence of his ideas of 1920 and the modern democracy

Full textThe discourse of certain scientists who appropriate areas until now reserved to philosophy, the sharper awareness of the limits of science and the existence of a certain relativism lead the philosopher to reconsider the problem of the distinction, order and heirarchy of knowledge. At the beginning of the century, the thomistic philosopher Jacques Maritain (1882-1973) attempted to respond to this problem in his work : the degrees of knowledge (1932). The author orders knowledge according to three degrees of abstraction and according to the way by which each defines the reality it considers. Philosophical sciences define by the essence, modem science not being able to reach this level is content to define by measurement. Having first exposed Maritain's doctrine, we then sought to critique it. In fact, it seems necessary to us today to give to the distinction between science and philosophy a priority on the criteria of the degrees of abstraction, so much the link between the intelligence and reality differs in the two types of knowledge. Moreover, after the analysis on book z of aristotle's metaphysics, the criteria on the manner of defining appears to be insufficient in so far as philosophy seeks to obtain, beyond the essence, the radical source of the intelligibility of reality, to know principles and proper causes. This critique has led us, in the second part of the thesis to establish an organization of knowledge in first distinguishing the way in which each knowledge confronts reality and then in structuring philosophy on proper principles. This organization is founded on the distinction between quantity and quality and on the discovery of metaphysical principles - the substance and the being in act. These distinctions leave room for a certain unity because all knowledge is founded on that which exists. Finally by this work, we have wanted to show the place and importance of the philosophical perspective : a poorer perspective but more directly oriented towards the human person, what he is, his destiny ; a perspective that focuses upon that which determines reality ; a perspective that ultimately becomes wisdom

Full textJacques Maritain was a leader of French neothomism, which is an intellectual movement invoking the name of Thomas Aquinas. This philosopher worked with Charles Peguy and Henri Bergson. At the beginning of the XXth century, he converted to Catholicism, under the influence of Leon Bloy. He took part in most of the intellectual debates of this century. During the twenties, he was close to the Action française of Charles Maurras, but left it after the Pope's condemnation in 1926. In the thirties, he was a leader of personnalism and especially of the group “Esprit” of Emmanuel Mounier. During the Spanish civil war, he refused to sustain general Franco. He left Europe for the United States at the beginning of the second world war. After the war, he was one of the most influential thinkers in the second Vatican council, as is seen most clearly in the Declaration on the religious liberty. The case of Jacques Maritain is not only historically interesting, but also theoretically. The philosopher was an advocate of the reconciliation between Church and the modern world, especially on the question of human rights. But he was also attached to the medieval Christendom and to the subordination of the political power to the religious one

Full textThis dissertation makes a case for renewed attention to the notion of collective agency and responsibility in Christian ethics. The overarching argument is that the kinds of moral claims we frequently make on social groups cannot be adequately reduced to individual or structural terms, and that a rightly construed sense of collective agency can help fill this conceptual gap. This view is in keeping with important elements of Christian reflection on the nature of social interaction and social life, and the main goal of the dissertation is the development of a model for understanding some groups as collective moral agents. After a survey of treatments of the problem of collective agency and responsibility in the Bible and Christian theology in the introduction, the dissertation turns to the work of two major figures in twentieth century Christian ethics, Jacques Maritain and Reinhold Niebuhr, to provide the central elements of this view of collective agency. Namely, these figures supply contrasting but mutually correcting accounts of individual intersubjectivity, structural non-reducibility, and collective intentionality in social groups. Perspectives from the social sciences and from analytic philosophy help clarify the issues at hand and adjudicate the differences between Maritain and Niebuhr. The dissertation ends with a theological synthesis of the forgoing discussion, proposing a view of the potential for collective moral agency that takes account of the capacity for both friendship and coercion in human intersubjectivity, for both community and conflict in social organization, and for both intentional creativity and impersonal functionality in the interaction of individual and structural elements of social life

Full textThe French historian of philosophy Frédéric Worms distinguishes several “moments” in the French philosophy of the 20th century. The “moment de l’existence” is one of them. We try to give a deeper account of this moment through the representation of the philosophical debate between Jacques Maritain and Jean-Paul Sartre about human nature. The two philosophers are the major exponents of integral humanism and atheistic existentialism. Our research widens the debate introducing further elements of the philosophical context like the appreciation of the reign of the technology, the ascent of phenomenology and the totalitarian threat. At the deepest of the “moment de l’existence” we find an existential quest for human nature in spite of its technological, philosophical and political relativisation. We place the philosophy of Jacques Maritain in the centre of our research. In our opinion it seems quite impossible to gain a deeper understanding of the “moment de l’existence” without a look at the major philosophical contribution of this Christian thinker. Thus, our research fills a gap in the history of 20th century philosophy

Full textThomiste, Martian set out in the center of his aesthetic a doctrine of the being and the mystery. He starts by setting up a theory of the art rooted in Aristotle options where art is the main notion. Il will very quickly enlarge towards a psychology of art and creation deeply intermingled by the two central notions: poetry and intuition. In using the scholastic options, Martian throws art into the field of reason. As far as poetry is concerned, it only obeys its law. Reason and poetry… their difficult alliance brings out a psychology of art: “is these a solution to the debate n reason and poetry which is really philosophical? Is it possible to show that, after all, poetry and intelligence belong to same blood and race and call each other? The question is at the center of Jacques Martian decisive inquiry. He therefore developed a theory on the creative act or process confronting two fearsome notions: the inspiration and the unconscious. This leads him towards a philosophical work on freudism and to establish a topic of the unconscious using Freud’s work without supporting it. This is the way he is going to elaborate a notion of the unconscious different from Freudian topic. Set on the idea of a “double unconscious”, it establishes the existence of a spiritual unconscious being the unique root of all human activities and the only one to make u aware of the creative activity, its singularity and his specificity. Afterwards, he enlarges the philosophy to the philosophy of the art history which starts with an analysis of the human artistic evolution : “the inquiry on the topical shapes”. The medieval philosophy could not have fused art and beauty. Martian does it. Following Scholastics, he gives to beauty a transcendental status but with a certain color. Finally, he reaches an aesthetic of literature where the work of art becomes a singular object: cosmos, structure and sign altogether

Full textAbstract The proclamation of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights by the United Nations on December 10, 1948 gave birth to the contemporary human rights movement. Despite the worldwide influence the idea of human rights has enjoyed, the concept of human rights has been plagued by a number of criticisms. Among the most pervasive and persistent criticisms of human rights are that they represent an individualist viewpoint, and they are a relative product of Western society that are hardly universal. One purpose of this dissertation is to challenge these criticisms. However, in recent decades the idea of human rights has been expanded past its original individual focus to incorporate the idea of collective, or group rights. The juxtaposition of universal, individual rights with particular, collective rights raises anew the issues of individualism and universalism in the human rights debate. In this dissertation, I compare the work of the French Catholic philosopher Jacques Maritain, the Peruvian theologian Gustavo Gutiérrez, and the American philosopher Martha Nussbaum in order to yield a contextually sensitive natural law approach to human rights that will serve as a common justificatory basis for individual and collective human rights. This common justificatory basis is capable of addressing the questions of individualism and universalism generated by the theoretical tensions generated by the juxtaposition of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (1948), which enshrines individual, universal rights, and the more recent United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (2007), which enshrines more particularistic, group rights.

Full textContemporary philosophy has demonstrated that the understanding of the idea of truth ought not to be limited any more to a purely intellectual process, but it should encompass the very essence of the subject. This implies taking into account the immediate and distant environment, its historical context and its contingency as a complete being, as opposed to modern systems, which seemed to give the illusion of understanding truth and possessing it. We think that any research requires of the philosopher that he defines the basis of the truth of his own existence. This is what Gabriel Marcel, Louis Lavelle and Jacques Maritain sought to do. Our times have the benefit of the reflection of these philosophers, who in their approach adopted an honest and authentic view based on the humility of the philosopher faced with the complexity of reality. This has led to a redefining of this concept - the fruit of an objective speculation using reason- but an answer to the call of the Absolute, the Unknowable, and Transcendental so that henceforth any discourse must broach upon a social engagement in a sincere communication between men. To bring about a climate of dialogue, love and hope where each individual welcomes the other as different from himself. Having limited our research into the universe of the French philosophers quoted above, this thesis is presented as an attempt to define the problem involved in the concept of truth today , postulating the existential experience as a basic perquisite

Full textWe begin (chapteriv) with three short chapters comparing biographies of both authors. Then, four long chapters constitue the dialogue itself. Firstly we ask wether, as bergson writes, the existence of a free will is improveable and if this supposed inability to analyse freedom is a manifestation of the possibility of freedom. We then ask (chapter v) how the constituent determinism (physical or psychic) of each human being can lead to responsability. By tackling the preceeding chapter in more depth, chapter vi confronts the question of knowing how far one can think of a divine freedom. As the reply to the question "why is there something rather than nothing?", a question in which bergson believes he sees the expression of a non-issue. Consequently, our chapter vii asks how for philosophy can take into account an eventual encounter between such divine creator freedom and human freedom. We are thus lead to question the restrictive meaning th at kant gives to the verb" to think" and to place our two authors in contrast to certain aspects of the thoughts of descartes, spinoza, leibniz, freud, heidegger, sartre

Full textAs global humanist icons, Gandhi, M. L. King Jr. and the Dalai Lama show a common feature : they put religion – seen from its spiritual core – at the heart of their political action. It is then meaningful to single out these spiritual and democratic leaders from the liberal political sphere, where religion and politics tend to be separated, specially in France. Yet, in this country, some political figures of the last century show a kind of family likeness with those original leaders, all of them inspired by Gandhi. Among many others (Péguy, Mounier, S. Weil...), three contemporary philosophers – Socialist J. Jaurès (1859-1914), Neo-Thomist J. Maritain (1882-1973) and Peace activist Lanza del Vasto (1901-1981) – also base their approach on a spiritual ground, in spite of their differences due to their own specific relationship with catholicism, the french predominant religion. Without wandering to historical and biographic details, this doctoral thesis is studying these cases in order to define the ''Spiritual'', which is rarely done. Here, this word is conceptualized as the ''concern of the link with the ultimate reality'' (the Absolute, the Infinite, God for the believers) ; and its objective effects (theoretical and practical) on our ''commited mystics'' are scrutinized, then characterized inside a specific democratic trend. These effects are so decisive that they imply to recognize the ''Spiritual'' as an anthropological category, entailing a simultaneous redifining of the Political and the Religious. The latter, thus being requalified through the ''Spiritual'', can also be admitted in the liberal public sphere, while Political theory can find a new scientific paradigm

Full textStanislas Fumet (1896-1983) was a Catholic intelllectual whose crucial role in many and varied domains is unrecognized. An editor of the prestigious series "Roseau d’Or", founder of the Christian journal Temps Présent, member of the Resistance, Gaullist, broadcaster for the radio station France Culture : none of these facets led to Fumet being in the foregroud of politically committed intellectuals. More than by an absence of fame, this reality can be explained by the supporting (or "ancillary" to use his godson Pierre Manent’s term) role that Fumet played to an intellectual generation marked by Jacques Maritain. Initially this generation’s servant, Fumet gradually became one of its last representatives, taking on a "spiritual magisterium in the temporal" (Jean-Marie Lustiger)

The dissertation addresses the issue from the perspective of ideas, and is divided into three parts. First, it describes how the modern sovereign states system emerged as a result of prior revolutions in ideas about justice and political authority thereby drawing on the work of Daniel Philpott. It then examines the writings of three twentieth-century Catholic writers who treated the issue of sovereignty as part of their reflections on international affairs: Luigi Sturzo, Jacques Maritain, and John Courtney Murray. Finally, the dissertation correlates the work of Sturzo, Maritain, and Murray with a number of contemporary political theorists of cosmopolitan democracy. It argues not only that there are significant similarities between Sturzo, Maritain, and Murray and cosmopolitan theory, but also that the Catholic tradition can complement cosmopolitanism in a helpful manner. Thus the dissertation suggests a way forward for the Catholic tradition with respect to the issue of state sovereignty and global governance, and it provides a challenge to the Catholic community regarding this matter

Full textThe notion of the development of Africa is primarily tributary to its history and specifically to that of its independence. The African people expected that the accession to political independence would be followed by the economical independence that is instrumental in human development. The African Educational system has imported the western education prototype and has put in place free market policies instead of training/educating/moulding individuals capable of contributing with their intellectual and practical knowledge towards the making of a fair society that enhances development. To date, it is out of question to stick to this model. Development will not have any meaning if it is not genuine, showing solidarity and inclusiveness. This work is intended to conceive a typically genuine African model of development. This is ultimately linked /inseparable to the African philosophy of education whose concerns and making will constitute the objectives of this thesis. A philosopher, Jacques Maritain has already explored that possibility. While opposing the liberal education system, he has opened prospects to education for [development that shows solidarity /communal development] . Within Latin America’s context, another philosopher and educationist, Paulo Freire, has considered an alternative education paradigm. The search for a new philosophy of education for Africa is tributary to the comparative study of these two contemporary scholars

Full textFacing to my own concerns and this was one of the reasons to write this Thesis I am convinced that is not possible keeping thinking, acting and constructing juridical logical sctructures only trough formal basis. This period has already ended at Law Science and it didn t bring to us generous results. But if we know how to take advantage from its negative side, it will teach us a lot regarding the Law Science s reductionist vision, regardless its nature. Another innovative topic in this Thesis is about the consideration that the necessary demands of formal rationality and systemic consistency Comte under the knowledge of Law Science, precisely in dogmatic area, gathering to the growing complexity of social tensions and atavistic antagonisms to human beings Maritain. We are living in a normative crisis , which often doubts of state legitimacy in its jus-politics decisions. A crisis where the normative decisions are partly legitimate under the aspect of rules production and not of the legislating process, which starts in the beginning of the decision-making until the social efficiency. Ultimately, there are people who are able to find in Law Science not the dogmatic and autist reductionism, but a hope to view the Law as an independent organism perfectly able to think for itself. Besides, we are aware of, in the hodiernal world, it s hard to find anybody who submits to mourir pour les idées (die for an ideal). In the other hand, the scientific world so, Law including is open to the pluralism of ideas, using less absolute truth as premises. Today we know many lives hadn t been lost for nothing! For a truth that is not even useful anymore. I have noticed Science has realized that being humble can expand its research in the field or not so, it could give it more legitimacy in the scientific community. Therefore, I propose a reflection trough another view: considering the hierarchy and the formal aspect of latin Law Science combined with the flexibility and concerns regarding practicing Law to the Anglo-Saxon Law. In an innovative way, with the conciliate which for many apparently were irreconcilable of one of the most important leaders of Humanistic Law, Jacques Maritain, with a great philosopher, systematic organizer and humanity server, not to much reminded lately, Auguste Comte. The fact that I have conciliated ideas apparently irreconcilable, such as Maritain s and Comte s to guide this Scientific Paper, doesn t mean I underestimated all the jus-philosophical background of almost a decade of research. I used, indeed, even not so perceptible, the influences of my Masters for these ten years, as well the books read in the original language or translated about the issue
Diante das minhas inquietações e foi esta uma das razões para a confecção desta Tese estou convencido que não mais se pode continuar pensando, agindo e construindo estruturas lógicas jurídicas apenas sob alicerces formalistas. Este ciclo já se esgotou na Ciência Jurídica e não foi um ciclo que nos trouxe generosos frutos. Mas se soubermos tirar proveito do lado ruim dele, poderá nos ensinar bastante acerca das visões reducionistas na Ciência do Direito, seja ela de natureza for. Outro ponto que se inova nesta Tese é a união das consideração de que as exigências imprescindíveis de racionalidade formal e coerência sistêmica Comte , sob o comando da Ciência Jurídica, mais precisamente no campo dogmático, conciliando com a crescente complexidade das tensões sociais e antagonismos atávicos aos seres humanos Maritain. Vivemos assim numa crise normativa onde frequentemente se duvida da legitimidade estatal em suas decisões jus-políticas. Onde as decisões normativas apenas são parcialmente legítimas sob o aspecto de produção de normas e não do processo legiferante que vai desde o ponto inicial da tomada de decisão até a eficácia social. Enfim, ainda há quem encontre na Ciência Jurídica não o reducionismo dogmático e autista mas, sim uma esperança onde vê o Direito não só com pernas próprias para seguir seu melhor caminho mas também com cabeça própria para pensar. Sabemos, outrossim, que no mundo hodierno ninguém mais, ou melhor, dificilmente encontraremos alguém que se sujeite mourir pour les idées, em contrapartida o mundo científico, portanto o do Direito também, está mais aberto ao pluralismo de idéia, utilizando menos verdades absolutas como premissas. Hoje nos sabemos, quantas vidas não se ceifaram por nada! Por uma verdade que já não é mais útil. Hoje noto que a ciência percebeu que ser humilde pode lhe render maior amplidão em sua pesquisa de campo ou não e portanto, mais legitimidade na comunidade científica. Por isso proponho uma reflexão para uma terceira via: sem perder a hierarquia e o aspecto formal que há na Ciência Jurídica de origem latina com a flexibilidade e a preocupação do direito na ordem prática, com o direito nas ruas de origem anglo-saxão. Inovando ainda com a conciliação que para muitos aparentavam inconciliáveis de um dos maiores lideres do Direito Humanístico, Jacques Maritain, com um grande pensador e sistemático organizador servidor da humanidade, pouco lembrado hodiernamente, Auguste Comte. Também o que saliento nesta Tese é a importância de Comte e Maritain na consolidação dos Direitos Humanos por nos compreendidos atualmente. Não é porque conciliei idéias que aparentemente eram a priori consideradas inconciliáveis como de Maritain e Comte para nortear este Trabalho Cientifico, significa que abri mão ou reduzi toda bagagem jus-filosófica de quase uma década de pesquisa. Utilizei, naturalmente, mesmo que imperceptivelmente, as influências de meus Mestres ao longo deste decênio, assim como das obras lidas quer traduzidas para língua pátria quer no original pertinente ao assunto.

Full textStanislas Fumet (1896-1983) was a Catholic intelllectual whose crucial role in many and varied domains is unrecognized. An editor of the prestigious series "Roseau d’Or", founder of the Christian journal Temps Présent, member of the Resistance, Gaullist, broadcaster for the radio station France Culture : none of these facets led to Fumet being in the foregroud of politically committed intellectuals. More than by an absence of fame, this reality can be explained by the supporting (or "ancillary" to use his godson Pierre Manent’s term) role that Fumet played to an intellectual generation marked by Jacques Maritain. Initially this generation’s servant, Fumet gradually became one of its last representatives, taking on a "spiritual magisterium in the temporal" (Jean-Marie Lustiger)

Este trabalho estuda o intelectual católico Alceu Amoroso Lima no período histórico de 1928 a 1946 e tem por objetivo provar que esse intelectual passou do conservadorismo à democracia, nesse espaço de tempo, na medida em que abandonou suas idéias autoritárias - oriundas do contato com Jackson de Figueiredo e com o pensamento e a obra de autores conservadores europeus do século XIX, entre os quais Edmund Burke, Louis-Ambroise De Bonald, Juan Donoso Cortés e, principalmente, Joseph De Maistre. Mais tarde, Alceu Amoroso Lima chegou à democracia por meio do contato pessoal com o filósofo católico francês Jacques Maritain e das leituras que fez de sua obra, concretizando esse processo no início da segunda metade da década de 1940, mais especificamente em 1946. Esse processo de mudança pelo qual Alceu Amoroso Lima passou rumo à democracia ocorreu em um dos períodos mais decisivos da história do mundo contemporâneo, as décadas de 1930 e 1940, momento da ascensão e queda dos totalitarismos, da perseguição a judeus, comunistas, e da fragilidade da liberdade e da democracia. A atuação de Alceu Amoroso Lima no Brasil do governo de Getúlio Vargas carrega consigo o ônus de ser constituída pela defesa do princípio de autoridade e da limitação da liberdade, mas revela também a postura de um intelectual que soube, por meio do contato com a filosofia democrática de Jacques Maritain, abandonar posições insustentáveis e se converter à democracia e à liberdade, ainda em tempo, enquanto outros se mantiveram em silêncio.
This dissertation studies the Catholic intellectual Alceu de Amoroso Lima in the historical period from 1928 to 1946 and it was carried out to prove that this intellectual evolved from conservativeness to democracy, in that period, while he discarded his authoritarian ideas - derived from his contact with Jackson de Figueiredo and the thought and works of European conservative writers of the 19th century, such as Edmund Burke, Louis-Ambroise De Bonald, Juan Donoso Cortés and, in particular, Joseph De Maistre. Alceu Amoroso Lima approached democracy by establishing personal contact with the French Catholic philosopher Jacques Maritain and, by reading his works, he accomplished such a process at the beginning of the second half of the 1940s, more specifically in 1946. The evolution process experienced by Alceu Amoroso Lima towards democracy took place in one of the most decisive periods of contemporary world history, the 1930s and the 1940s, with the ascension and fall of totalitarian regimes, the chase after Jews, Communists, and the debility of freedom and democracy. Alceu Amoroso Limaþs action during Getulio Vargasþs government carries the burden of comprising both his defense of the authority principle and freedom restriction, but also shows the posture of an intellectual who, by having close contact with Jacques Maritainþs democratic philosophy, learned how to discard unsustainable positions and, in time, to convert to democracy and freedom, while other ones kept silence.

Full textSeveral biographies have been dedicated to Ernest Psichari (1883-1914). Most of them were published between World War I and World War II. Those biographies are mostly based on idealised autobiographies which depict Ernest Psichari as a young hero lost in modem times, as Agathon puts it. Ernest Psichari became. A soldier in the French army in 1904 and converted to catholicism in 1913 under the influence of Father Clerissac and Jacques Maritain. He became a member of the +tiers-ordre dominicain ; (a group of people who participate in the activities of the Dominican order without being full members of it). He died on the battlefield on 22 august 1914 and his life became a myth because of this tragic death. A thorough study of the abundant private archives of the Psichari family, which were made public in 1985, and the thorough reading of Pscihari's work, reveal another story. Born in a family of intellectuals who defended Captain Dreyfus's cause, Psichari was a socialist in his young days as his two friends Maritain and Peguy. The ideals of his youth influenced all his life. The ideas of Maritain and Peguy, which he embraced during his youth, influenced Psichari as a colonial soldier and mixed in his new Christian faith. It is often hard to reconcile the ideals of Psichari's youth and his Christian faith. His early death came before the full maturity of his ideology. (translation by Frederic Nizard)
