"Le concile Vatican II (1962-1965) est certainement un épisode marquant de l'histoire de l'Église catholique. On lui reproche toutefois d'avoir laissé de côté « l'autre moitié de l'Église », les femmes. Or, ce n'est pas le cas. En prenant pour exemple les centaines de femmes actives au sein des communautés religieuses de l'archidiocèse de Montréal, l'auteur démontre que ces dernières se sont lancées dans un processus de réception conciliaire en espérant redéfinir leur héritage, vivre une expérience libératrice et poser les jalons d'un nouveau projet collectif. Grâce à des sources inédites, cet ouvrage permettra aux lecteurs de mieux saisir le processus d'appropriation de l'événement et des textes conciliaires par les religieuses et de revisiter une période riche d'espoirs et de turbulences."--Page 4 de la couverture.

The history of canon law in various Christian cultures (Latin, Greek, Syrian, Coptic) has, with good reason, mostly concentrated on questions of content and organization. In the present volume, however, a comparison is made of the procedures leading to conciliar decisions and thus to the emergence of canon law.

These canons (or rules) for church organization and life and Christian morals issued at a council held in Constantinople in 691/2 form the foundation of Byzantine Canon Law. They show an intense concern to restore the proper discipline of clerical life after the chaos brought about by the Arab invasions. The rules for the laity show a concern to secure obedience to the Church’s rules about marriage, proper respect for sacred space, and the suppression of customs of pagan origin. Particular interest attaches to the canons that express disapproval of certain customs of the Western Church and of the Armenian Church. Was this an attempt to impose Byzantine hegemony, or simply a revulsion at customs that seemed wrong? The Byzantine emperor tried repeatedly to get the Pope to give the new canons the stamp of his approval; his failure marks an important stage in the mounting divergence between the Greek and the Roman Churches. The translation is accompanied by full annotation, while the introduction sets the council in its historical context, in both the history of the early medieval world and the development of Eastern canon law.

Ecclesiology is the study of the church and has two focal points; the one is the historical and doctrinal perspective on the church, and the other is the church as situated in a local context in the sense of the local practices of actual congregations. The ecclesiology or, more correctly, the ecclesiologies of this volume mainly focuses on the second aspect, i.e., understanding the local congregation or parish as a community of believers. A congregation may firstly be described by posing a theological question: What is the local missional church or congregation all about? This question may be answered from different perspectives, but it remains essential to answer it from a theological perspective. The first five chapters in this book focus mainly on a theological understanding of the congregation. This is done from different disciplines within the study field of theology. Congregations are, secondly, social realities and should be described and analysed through an analytical or empirical lens, or, to answer the question attached to the first empirical-descriptive task of practical theology, “What is going on?”. The remaining chapters use a quantitative and qualitative lens and give an empirical analysis of the congregation. The intention is to critically reflect on the church and congregations’ ecclesiology from a theological and analytical perspective with an emphasis on the South African context. It wants to map markers for the development of contemporary ecclesiologies, and the different chapters are meant as mirrors to look in and reflect on the theological and contextual relevance of denominations and congregations in South Africa.
