Abstract

This book examines the where, when, and what of daily, weekly, and annual corporate worship in Geneva, revealing in rich detail the liturgical rhythm shaped by Calvin's theology. It includes sermons, sacraments, marriage, household devotions, ministry to the sick and dying. Shedding new light on Calvin's pulpit, it uncovers when, where, what he preached, and dates sermons. It clarifies the development of Psalm singing, the Sunday afternoon liturgy; it explains how the liturgical year was transformed and the special Calvinist day of prayer and sense of providential time developed. Extensive research in baptismal and marriage records shows how practice was reshaped because (like the Lord's Supper) these must be celebrated in a preaching service. Daily sermons in every pulpit required both educated ministers and significant planning. The program of ministerial rotation Calvin created adds dimensions to his doctrine of the church and demonstrates afresh his organizational skills--Publisher.

Abstract

De toute l'œuvre de Max Weber, "L'éthique protestante et l'esprit du capitalisme" est sans doute l'ouvrage le plus cité et le plus commenté. Est-ce pour autant que ce "classique" de la sociologie est lu et travaillé pour ce qu'il est, soit une contribution fondamentale à l'analyse de la genèse du capitalisme moderne ? En proposant au lecteur francophone une édition scientifique de cette étude, qui rassemble, en outre, une série de textes jusque-là inédits en français et propres à en expliciter le sens - les "Anticritiques", dans lesquelles Weber répond longuement aux objections qui lui avaient été faites, mais aussi la première version de l'étude sur les sectes protestantes américaines -, et cela dans une traduction qui se veut scrupuleusement attentive à la richesse et à la subtilité de l'analyse wébérienne, Jean-Pierre Grossein donne la possibilité d'une lecture nouvelle de ce grand texte, lequel peut encore nous aider à approcher les questions les plus vitales qui travaillent nos sociétés contemporaines. Un appareil critique important et une présentation à la fois historique et analytique font de cette édition l'indispensable outil de travail pour accéder à une œuvre aujourd'hui "canonique".

Abstract

Between 2014 and 2016, the artist Wendy Morris started off on different walks along the west coast of Europe, following the path of a family of Huguenots during the repression after the Edicts of Nantes at the end of the 17th century. Throughout her walks, Morris drew new maps and routes of the places visited by the Huguenot refugees, who just as today passed through Calais and Dunkerque in France, moving on to Blankenberge, Zeebrugge and then Vlissingen as their final destination in the Netherlands. Then and now again, these ports and places were known as escape routes towards a better future. It is their experiences that Morris tries to elucidate via carefully selected texts fragments, recited psalms and testimonies that are juxtaposed with official publications and regulations dictated by the Catholic Church against these Huguenots. The artist also mapped her own route while simultaneously making notes and collecting samples of grass, trees, seeds, plants, and the like, which may have been used by the refugees to heal the daily injuries caused by the long trip.
