Full textUsual for monks, tradition shapes the relationship actors keep alive with their past through living together in the present. Monastic communal living is firstly a way of being together which draws from the representations of tradition which are then re-represented, beyond the local, a link that even unites actors from past generations to form the ‘Church’. Monkhood referred to in this work is defined firstly by a place, since it is a question of a ‘tradition’ situated geographically: Mount Athos in Greece. But this place is paradoxically deterritorialized: the actors that we will meet immerse themselves in the monastic tradition of Mount Athos… but in France. In such a context, tradition is connected less to a place than to a network of actors engaged in the heart of an enlarged community. Our reflection focuses on the practice of the notion of tradition in the present forms of constructing social links in the field of religion. This notion leads us to envisage religious experience as an experience of the presence of God which enlightens through the experience of others, in a game of mediation in which the modalities aim to re-represent those absent and what they have to say to those present

Full textThe abbey of Niederaltaich was founded in 741 by Odilon, duke of Bavaria, to extend colonization and evangelization of the region in the north of the Danube. The Bavarian forest. This monastery played an important political part until the first crisis at the beginning of the xo century. Godehard, abbot of Niederaltaich since 996, restored the Benedictine rule, and the monastery lived a new prosperity. The two vitae written by Wolfher and the epistolary collection of Froumund of Tegernsee inform us how the reform has been introduced in the monasteries of Niederaltaich, Tegernsee and Hersfeld. His reforming work always allowed an economic and cultural growth for the reformed monasteries. He became bishop of Hildesheim in 1022 and was a great creator of churches and a model for his contempories, so he was canonized in 1131. Gunther, a riche aristocrat, became hermit in 1008 and he had a great part in the economic development of his monastery and the Bavarian forest. He founded the hermitage of rinchnach and built a way (gunthersteig) between Niederaltaich and the "golden way". The road leading to bohemia. He went to the pagan liutices to evangelize them. He incited Etienne, king of Hungary, to found the monastery of bel in the Bakony forest. And he made peace between the emperor henry III and the Czech prince Bretislas during the war of 1041. He died in 1045 and he was buried in the monastery of Brevnov. With the help of these two exceptional persons

Full textThe Soviet period represents an area that has been hardly studied up to now. There are large gaps in the study of the history of this era, both in Moldavian and foreign studies. The purpose of this PhD is to study in detail the most important aspects of Moldavian monasticism through the prism of the monastery of Noul-Neamţ. New information extracted from unpublished documents and other archival data are presented in depth, along with a comprehensive description of the subject in all its complexity. The chronological focus is set on the years 1940-1962, during the Soviet period. Additionally, the author describes the origins of Moldavian monasticism, the foundation of Noul-Neamţ, and its recent development from 1962 up to the present time. The description of monastic life in general during the Soviet period has been carried out for the first time through the prism of a single monastery: the monastery of Noul-Neamţ. The majority of historical facts have been obtained from official archives, which has permitted for the first time the disclosure of documents from this period labeled “absolutely secret”. The author attempts to classify the key events occurring between the State and the Church as well as between the State and monasteries. The analysis of Moldovan monastic rules and in particular that of Noul-Neamţ is another original contribution to the knowledge of religious life in Moldova. This thesis can be used to study and to understand Moldavian monasticism, as well as the confrontation of the Soviet state with monasteries and monks. The clergy and church members, historians, students, and people interested in the history of the Soviet period as well as the monastic life will find in this thesis new and useful information on the Moldavian past and the special features of Orthodox Moldavian monasticism

Aspects such as communal or solitary, materials or rituals, revealed the main features unique to the monacal life organisation. The prescriptions coming from the Rule and the Constitutions have a main influence on carmelites, visible into mental and behavioural habitus. The filmic description of actions and their detailed analysis has shown that the changeover between the religious to the non religious, the solitary to the communal is being accomplished as a fluid and harmonious continuity. All the practical conditions aim, in the daily monk's life, to an encounter with God. The seven films give an insight into essential elements of the monastic life as well as discreet evidences of the carmelitan spirituality

Full textIn 1128, following the assassination of Charles le Bon, Flanders entered into a long dispute over succession which was to allow the new Count, Thierry of Alsace, the younger of Lorraine, to win fame on the political stage. The interest which he brought to res monastica was to make him a valuable asset in the quest for the development of the new order of Cîteaux. Bernard de Clairvaux made the most of his frequent dealings with the Count to found in Loos in 1146 a new branch of his abbey in the newly independent diocese of Tournai. Basing my study on a rich corpus of documents, suitably sorted and analysed beforehand, I have been able to extract five main areas of research. Firstly, to dispense with the fantasies surrounding the abbey which former historians had embellished and reconstruct the real context of its foundation. Secondly, establish the stuctural basis of the abbey. Lastly, in three distinct parts, analyse the main traits of monastic life. 1. Community life - the passage from secular to convent life, the role and status of each and everyone, conformity to Cistercien law, 2. Lay society - barn life, agriculture and the production and distribution of produce, 3. The involvement in society of monks in spite of their cloistered existence - friends and benefactors, made up of interreligious agreements and confrontation. The publication of the XII century charter, that of two chronicles, notices pertaining to each barn and each abbot, along with ancestry of the main families involved in the foundation can be found in the appendices

The setting of this study is the parish of Saint-Nizier, which was located right in the town centre and presented real social variety. We want to investigate the complexity of social relationships and the flexibility of godparenthood, the strategies and behaviours which can be detected, thanks to precise social analyses.The main source is the parish registers. This research also aspires to call attention to the richness that spiritual relationships provide in urban social history. This classic source allows us to tackle religious history from a social point of view

Full textSt. Augustine’s Rule appears to be the most ancient western monastic Rule. Its durability may be surprising, since it is very short. The purpose of this thesis is to consider its educative value, from the practitioner’s point of view: are the instructions able to convey a monastic “savoir-être (way of behaving)”, in accordance with the original propositum?The approach is based on a reading-listening of the Rule. This practical stage introduces a formal analysis of Augustinian pedagogy: the Rule is in accordance with the classical requirements of an educative work, but its density demands clarification on the part of the listener-trainers.An objective stage may follow: the Rule offers decisive content on cenobitic realities. This involves lexical analysis of the terms unum, frater, in Deum, caritas and dilectio.A subjective stage closes the approach, with an examination of monastic identity and its realisation throughout the Rule

Full textWhat is the role of isolation in medieval social organization? Our thesis aims at answering this wide and complex question with a study of historical semantics centered on what we called "vocabulary of the solitude": the words often used with the term "solitudo" in medieval texts. During our research we were able to identify continuities and discontinuities in the way how the Latin monastic world conceived the isolation. Towards a better understanding of the social aspect of the solitude we chose to study one of the key moments of the reorganization of the social order in the Middle Ages, namely, the turning and first half of the 12th century (c. 1080-c. 1150). In the big variety of forms of isolation existing during" this period, it was imperative to study the case of the Carthusian monks, the major specialists in monastic institutional solitude at the time. The Carthusian monks were early recognized by their contemporaries and by the ecclesiastical hierarchy as a perfect example of solitary life, what encouraged us to analyze the specific way that they conceived the solitude. Through a detailed analysis of the vocabulary and the semantic field of the solitudo, we have demonstrated that the isolation participates on the normative speech of the Church. A speech which establishes an ecclesiological thought based on a hierarchical organization of the material and the ideal forms of separation from the world. In short, we point out that to live the solitude is to think about the society, once to speak of the isolation often makes the medieval authors to think about the appropriate manners to live together on Earth and not about the total abandonment of the world

Full textThe abbeys of women of the region of Eastern Germany, of historic Upper Lusatia (Marienthal, Marienstern, Lauban) are the only catholic institutions which have survived in the mainly protestant area. I study their situation above all in 16L and 17L century when it was necessary to constitute an organisational basis from which further existence of convents could evolve. The existence of nuns was determined just as strongly by politics, (church) administration and by social and economical factors, as it was by its coexistence with Protestantism, and often in the continuity with the local tradition. A micro-historic investigation of an internal crisis of the convents in the second half of the 16 and the beginning of 17TH century follows, reflecting the blended influence of various authorities, as well as by general trends in the evolution of women's monastic life of the period. The analysis is appended by notes on the inhabitants of the convents and the history of convent dominions

Leclere, Matthieu. "L'Un et le Signe : une lecture de la règle de saint Augustin." Thesis, Paris 4, 2009. http://www.theses.fr/2009PA040201.
Full textThe whole thought of Augustine seems to be the result of a radical questioning: why is there the Other and not just the One? This question leads him to adopt an original reasoned position which ultimately takes the original form of a monastic rule.The broad themes on which the Rule relies outline an ascent from the desire for beauty as revelation of the turning towards the One to the discovery of the relations within the Trinity as a place where desire and desired are united.My research is informed by a systematic comparison of the rules of monastic communities of the 4th and 5th centuries. The Augustinian community is not primarily either a community of ascetics or of men aiming for perfection, but a community experiencing the unity of the Trinity lived by and in the Church.The sacramentum is the means which permits man to make his own the unity of the Trinity. The sacramental symbol leads the individual to interiority and causes him to experience that love of the One in which all are able to come together and unite. In this shared love, the dialectic between the individual and the community is resolved.This discovery leads to an analysis of the idea of the symbol in Augustine and to a re-examination of certain current interpretations of his thought. In the light of these conclusions, it is possible to understand better the central role of worship in the unity of the City and to define the conditions of political unity

Full textWhere we introduce Besançon’s abbeys and convents History between 1350 and 1500. How several establishments – different by their ages, lifestyles, activities and religious functions - try to face the same events - demographic, economic, religious crises and wars of the low Middle Ages - according to their own customs and with different material and spiritual success. The regular canons of Saint-Paul, the Benedictines of Saint-Vincent and the Cistercians of Notre-Dame of Battant distinguish themselves from mendicants friars - Dominicans, Franciscans and Carmelites - and even more with Clarisses, returned to a strict rule of poverty by Colette, reformer nun of the order of St. Clare at the beginning of the XVth century. From the municipal sources and the ancient archives of these abbeys and convents, we tried to understand what was the reality of such establishments in these disturbed time. We mainly held the material subjects (buildings and the many construction sites mentioned as well as an approach of the temporal in the county of Burgundy and in the city of Besançon), the social study of the monks and the nuns as well as their organization within their respective community and their roles. The municipal archives, a strikingly rich fund, allowed us to understand how the monastic and conventual establishments of the city of Besançon fitted into the urban, economic and religious life, and what were their relations with the city authorities. In this search for the links with the outside, we also mentionned the case of the count of Burgundy, lord of the province but not of the city, who is also the duke of Burgundy, to try to understand how nuns and monks open to the world in a time when the laic power tends to assert itself especially since the pope ones are weakened by the Western Schism and the conciliar crisis which follows

Full textThe Congregation of the Holy Name of Jesus, object of this study, was born in 1800 in Toulouse. Its existence over the years provides a page of the history of French CAtholicism, through this community of teaching Sisters meeting the diverse governements between 1800 and 1950. In addition, the story of the Holy Name of Jesus provides a page of the history of the instruction of girls in the 19Th and 20th centuries : living through years from 1900 to 1905, the evolution of french society and of the Church, obliged the sisters to reconsider their teaching, which, until that time, was a softened form of the teaching given to the boys. For the Holy Name of Jesus, affilated to the Dominican Order in 1888, it was a question not only of pursuing the taste entrusted to it by the Church, but also of finding its place in a Society which was more and more hostile to religious orders. This study, then, hopes first to be an illustration of what a congregation is between 1800 and 1950, from both the outside - How do the Sisters live? How are they greeted?- and the inside - How do the Sisters see theirs life? What motives incline their enter in couvent? What are theirs goals?- Second, that work leads to a question : why were some congregations victorious in passing through the upsets of the two last centuries why so many others did not survive them? Through the history of the Holy name of Jesus we have endeavored to provide a response : beyong secondary exterior factors, the perenity of a religieous institute first depends on the spirit which animates its members
Itoh, Ayako. "The emergence of the bhikkhunī-saṅgha in Thailand : Contexts, Strategies and Challenges." Paris, EPHE, 2013. http://www.theses.fr/2013EPHE5015.
Full textAn important number of Thai as well as Western scholars have debated over the legitimacy, or lack thereof, of the emergence of the defacto bhikkhunī-saṅgha in the Theravāda tradition, especially since the taking of Lower ordination, or pabbajjā, of Bhikkhunī Dhammanandā in 2001. At the same time, little attention has been paid to the lives, practice, motives and discourses of the growing number of women who are actually taking pabbajjā and upasampadā, Higher ordination, and the contexts in which their individual choices have been made and carried out during the past decade. The interdiction to ordain women for sāmaṇerī or bhikkhunī as proclaimed in 1928 by the Supreme Patriarch of the Thai saṅgha is still theoretically in effect today. Yet, the latest numbers show that there are currently 31 bhikkhunī and 37 sāmaṇerī throughout Thailand. Moreover, from 2008-2011 250 women took temporary sāmaṇerī-hood in Watr Songdhammakalyani, the monastery of Bhikkhunī Dhammanandā in Nakhon Pathom province, west of Bangkok, and 76 women in the Nirotharam Meditation Center in Chiang Mai City, where the author conducted most of her fieldwork. However unofficial, the acceptance of females taking both Lower and Higher ordination by a certain segment of society reflects the existing dissonance over the identity of contemporary Thai Theravāda tradition, and the expansion of such phenomenon, which concerns all stakeholders of Theravāda Buddhism. This study does not aim to argue whether the emerging bhikkhunī-saṅgha is legitimate or deviant from the traditional viewpoint of Thai Theravāda. It takes the existing phenomenon as an object of study and tries to understand who these Buddhist women are who are seemingly on a subversive path, what it means for them to become bhikkhunī, how the defacto bhikkhunī-saṅgha started to take root, and what the grounds are for its social acceptance. Unveiling life histories of these women, their everyday life, and their lay and monastic networks lead us to have a grasp that feminist discourses on gender equality can hardly explain the full context behind this phenomenon, but is rather the result of a more complex and historical dialogue between Thai society and Theravāda Buddhism in an ever-globalizing world

Full textIn high maine and anjou around la fleche, twenty-three religious communauties were, according to the spirit of catholic reformation restored or founded. This work studies the constantly ascending movement of this group of religious orders and of women congregations, from the beginning of the decisions of trente council till all the evictions in 1792. Indeed, few convents which hard problems were closed during the 18th century. Yet, far from a run down of the number of nuns, we notice that monastic population resisted the erosion related to the enlightment's century, and that the amount of secular nuns - nurses or teachers - progressed regularly. The documents about the nuns bring quantitative data about their social extraction, on the average age at their profession and death, and also, to a lesser extent, about their calling or the reason for the choice of a convent. These two centuries, while expressing a general stability, reveal deep changes generated by the changes in society. Secular governments differentiate the success of urban cloisters from the weakness of small isolated monastaries. Afar as the best known communauties are concerned, religious life seems to have remained in the demanded strictness of the rule. It also perpetuated, thanks to apostleship and attractive cultual place, the teaching of the message of faith and devotion to laics

Full textThe thesis is a multidisciplinary approach to the Byzantine religious and social customs in relation to the entrance into the monastery and the monastic profession. The study aims to better explain some aspects of the history of the liturgical ritual or the history of social practices that remain little understood. Among these, we discuss the terminology used to describe the stages of the monastic life, the origin of the small monastic habit, the introduction of the tonsure among the practices used at the entrance to the monastery, the number and the names of habits received on the day of monastic profession, the social rules that governed the start of this new form of life. The research focuses on the overall evolution of these monastic practices throughout the Byzantine history. In so doing, it uses the historical, canonical, literary, liturgical and iconographic sources. The key point of our interpretation is the distinction between two monastic traditions, one from Jerusalem and another from Constantinople. From this perspective, the history of the practices studied here becomes a "tale of two cities", a term already used in a strictly liturgical context by R. Taft, but not yet applied to the monastic life. The dialogue between these two different monastic traditions is the source of a large number of terminological and liturgical clarifications. We observe the non-conflictual coexistence of these practices of different origins, their mutual influence and a remarkable capacity for synthesis within the Byzantine ascetic life. Some features of the monastic life during this period are still found in the nowadays monasticism of Byzantine influence

Full textFounded in the early years of 12th Century in the heart of a movement of monastic renewal, the Benedictine abbey of Saint-Sulpice quickly grew thanks to its founder, hermit Raoul de la Futaie, and to the support of the Dukes of Brittany, thus getting at the head of about forty priories by the 13th Century. The rigorist principles of hermits can be recognized in the abbey church’s architecture, whose partitioned spaces and bare, sober decoration favour a conventual life based on meditation. Originally meant as a double monastery, the insubordination of the male friars lead to their disappearance in the course of the 16th Century, leaving Saint-Sulpice as a fully women’s abbey. Led by their vocation, the nuns enter into a restricting life whose landmark is their strict enclosure. The Rule of Saint Benedict and the monastery’s Constitutions bind the nuns’ environment so that they can only find comfort in their own submissiveness and self-abnegation. At the helm of her community, the abbess rules with discretio and guides the girls towards perfection. The priories, remote from the mother house, progressively gain some independence, increased still by the reception of their own novices from the 17th Century on. The rise of conventual priories against the decline of rural houses leads to a dichotomy of this network by the end of the 18th Century

Full textThis study explores the modalities of the experience of the Good Shepherd Sisters of Quebec as they adapted to the Quiet Revolution and to the Second Vatican Council between 1960 and 1981. In addition to the wide social services they offered to women and to the poor in Quebec, Africa and Latin America, the sisters of the community have also been involved in education since the 1850s. While the Catholic Church was losing its legitimacy in society and its authority in the education field in the 1960s, the community initiated its renewal. Leaning on the Council's principles for the realization of the aggiornamento, and leveraging the legislative power of the general chapters, the community decentralized its government by increasing the autonomy of the sisters and empowering them. This investigation into the different versions of the constitutional documents of the community showed that those participative principles were the object of multiple tensions and debates within the community during the decades of 1960 and 1970. The decisions of the general chapters on these matters finally led to a more individual way of living the spiritual and community life. When the education system authority passed from the Catholic Church to the Quebec government in the 1960s, with the secularization of the society, the Good Shepherd Sisters needed to review their apostolic work in education. In response to the marginalization of the sisters in schools and to the decline of the community, the authorities relied on the individual initiatives and ensured the sisters' well-being in order to keep the community and its educational engagements alive. As the sisters were encouraged to go back to school and to specialize in the field of their choice, the community allowed some empowerment to the individuals, who could either continue their educational work or reorient in another apostolic sector, while respecting their vows of obedience and the community hierarchy. The exploration of the collective and individual adaptation experience of the Good Shepherd Sisters of Quebec increases the comprehension of the ambiguous relation between autonomy and obedience in a religious community.
