Abstract

Avril 1861-avril 1865. Quatre années pendant lesquelles un peuple encore mal soudé d’un peu plus de 30 millions d’âmes, dont 4 millions d’esclaves noirs, s’est affronté en continu, divisé en deux camps inégaux, chacun invoquant sa propre définition de la liberté. Une guerre mobilisant 3 millions de combattants sur un territoire plus vaste que l’Europe, voyant plus de 10 000 engagements militaires distincts, dont certains sont devenus les pierres angulaires de la mémoire américaine, tels Bull Run, Shiloh, Antietam ou Gettysburg… À de nombreux égards, il s’agit du premier grand conflit contemporain, puisant dans toutes les ressources d’une modernité industrielle naissante, impliquant toutes les forces vives de la jeune société américaine passée en quelques décennies d’un conglomérat de colonies émancipées à une nation démocratique minée par ses contradictions internes. Avec 750 000, peut-être 850 000 morts, c’est la guerre de très loin la plus meurtrière de l’histoire des États-Unis, ayant provoqué 160 ans de débats et de polémiques, comme un écho lointain mais toujours bien présent. Pour comprendre ce cataclysme fondateur, Vincent Bernard offre enfin le grand récit attendu sur la guerre civile américaine, nourri de sources primaires et fondé sur une impressionnante bibliographie internationale

Abstract

A basic textbook in religious ethics for today's Catholic students and young adults.How do we understand moral theology within the context of Christian life and thought? In Be Good and Do Good, Bernard V. Brady addresses the main themes in fundamental moral theology for a novel perspective. Rather than relying solely on traditional sources such as natural law theory, abstract philosophical principles, or popular theories of the individual, he focuses on biblical stories, an emphasis on experience, and the social/relational spheres of human life. Our own sense of morality, Brady reminds us, emerges not out of a vacuum, but out of the experience and narratives of lived reality.Ideal for the high school or college classroom, or indeed, for any reader interested in a refreshing take on moral decision-making, Be Good and Do Good reminds us that we are each called to develop and nurture our own moral identity throughout our lives.
