Cependant, la légitimité des représentants élus tend à décroître dans les « vieilles » démocraties tandis que dans les pays qui instaurent une démocratie libérale après la chute d’un régime autoritaire ou d’une dictature, le désenchantement s’installe le plus souvent très rapidement. Pour être pleinement comprise, une telle situation appelle des enquêtes sur un élément central de la démocratie moderne : la représentation politique. Ce numéro a été réalisé avec le soutien de l'Agence Nationale de la Recherche (ANR), de la Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) ainsi que de la DGLFLF.

  • Waldensian and Catholic Theologies of History in the XII-XIV Centuries: Part I
    Journal of the Adventist Theological Society, 25/2 (2014): 65-87. Article copyright © 2014 by Gonzalo L. Pita. Waldensian and Catholic Theologies of History in the XII-XIV Centuries: Part I Gonzalo L. Pita Johns Hopkins University Baltimore, MD I. Introduction A fundamental tenet of Christianity states that God exerts his will on history.1 Theologies of history explore the implications of this idea dealing with questions that involve how and why God intervenes in human history, which are God’s purposes for humanity, how human free will affects history, whether history is intelligible, and which sources provide clues to the above questions. In the High Middle Ages there were in the Catholic official milieu some interpretations of history which were fairly accepted and established. However, the serious challenge instantiated by the dissenting Waldensian view attracted increasing attention as witnessed by the growing awareness in the writings of controversists and inquisitors. Common objections were periodically leveled against the Roman Church by people that denounced the corruption of some of the clergy, which led sometimes to the creation of new religious orders. But the Waldensians subscribed to a theology of history of radical arguments that questioned the most fundamental and cherished doctrinal tenets of the Roman Church and the religious and political authority of the papal office from a historical- theological perspective. The Catholic theology of history was undergirded by several sources in addition to Scriptures, that included but were not reduced to Roman 1 E.

  • Avignon Vs. Rome: Dante, Petrarch, Catherine of Siena
    [Expositions 4.1&2 (2010) 47-62] Expositions (online) ISSN: 1747-5376 Avignon vs. Rome: Dante, Petrarch, Catherine of Siena THOMAS RENNA Saginaw Valley State University ABSTRACT In the fourteenth century the image of ancient Rome as Babylon was transformed into the positive idea of Rome as both a Christian and a classical ideal. Whereas Dante disassociated Augustine‟s Babylon from imperial Rome, Petrarch turned Avignon into Babylon, a symbol of an avaricious papacy. For Catherine of Siena Avignon was not evil, but a distraction which prevented the pope from reforming the Italian clergy, bringing peace to Italy, and launching the crusade. “There is only one hope of salvation in this place! Here, Christ is sold for gold!”1 And so Francesco Petrarch denounced the Avignon of the popes as the most evil place on earth since the days of ancient Babylon. This view of the Holy See should have disappeared when the papacy returned to Rome in 1377, but it did not. On the contrary, the castigation of the sins of pontiffs intensified, as subsequent ages used this profile to vilify the papacy, the clergy, the French monarchy, and the French nation.2 Not to be outdone, some French historians in the twentieth century sought to correct this received tradition by examining the popes‟ worthy qualities.3 It is curious that this depiction of Avignon as the Babylon Captivity has enjoyed such longevity, even in college textbooks.4 “Corruption” is of course a value judgment as much as a description of actual behavior. Doubtless Pope Clement VI did not think of his curia as “corrupt.” Contemporary citizens of Mongolia do not see Genghis Khan as the monster of the medieval Christian chronicles.

  • The Shape of Late Medieval Religious Thought
    Part 1 The Intellectual Context 1 The Shape of Late Medieval Religious Thought The intellectual, social, and spiritual upheavals of the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries define the context within which the development of the Reformation of the sixteenth century must be approached. Although it has often been suggested in the past that the late Middle Ages was merely a period of general cultural and theological disintegration,1 it is now appreciated that it was also a period of remarkable development which sets the scene for the Reformation itself.2 In this chapter, I propose to present a general survey of the religious situation in the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries, as a prelude to an analysis of areas of continuity between the late medieval and Reformation periods.
