Abstract

Après les 193 leçons sur le livre du prophète Jérémie (cf. Calvini opera denuo recognita, Series Exegetica 6a et 6b, 2016), Calvin paracheva son explication du prophète avec dix-huit leçons sur les Lamentationes de septembre 1562 à janvier 1563. Les Lamentations s'inscrivent dans l'une des traditions poétiques des qînoth, les complaintes qui concernent le gouvernement politique. Calvin s'attache à en donner une interprétation morale et actualisante. Les sources et les principes exégétiques du Réformateur restent les mêmes, mais la double introduction, au texte latin et au texte français, les rappelle. L'édition est en effet juxtalinéaire avec en vis-à-vis la traduction modernisée et commentée de Charles de Jonviller. Deux index des noms de personnes et des citations bibliques complètent l'édition.

Abstract

Though the five poems of Lamentations undoubtedly refer to the Babylonian siege and destruction of Jerusalem in 587 BCE, the multiple voices that narrate unspeakable suffering and labor to make sense of the surrounding horror do so at women's expense.In the opening chapters, a prevailing metaphor of Jerusalem as a woman (Woman Zion) portrays a weeping widow, abandoned and alone, who soon becomes the target of blame for the downfall of the city and its inhabitants. Vague sexual improprieties craft the basis of her sinfulness, seemingly to justify her immense suffering as punishment. The damning effect of such a metaphor finds company in subsequent accounts of women, young girls, and mothers-all victims of the destruction recorded therein. But this feminist interpretation of Lamentations does not stop at merely documenting the case against women; it also demonstrates how such texts can serve as sources of strength by lifting up portraits of courageous resistance amid the rubble of misogynist landscapes.
