Abstract

Raymond Sickinger's biography of Antoine Frédéric Ozanam is more than a chronological account of Ozanam's relatively brief but extraordinary life. It is also a comprehensive study of a man who touched many lives as a teacher, writer, and principal founder of the Society of St. Vincent de Paul. Ozanam's life encompassed a particularly turbulent time in French history, and he was a witness to two major political upheavals-the overthrow of the Bourbon dynasty that brought Louis Philippe to power in 1830, and the end of Louis Philippe's "Bourgeois Monarchy" as a result of the 1848 Revolutions. This book examines Ozanam's life in a number of ways. First, it explores the various roles he played throughout his life-son, sibling, student, member of and an inspiration for the Society of St. Vincent de Paul, spouse and father, scholar, and spokesperson for the common people. Second, it examines the lessons he learned in his life, including the importance of friendship, the meaning of solidarity, and the role and purpose of suffering, among many others that he shares with those who study his thought and work. It concludes with an account of Ozanam's enduring legacy. Antoine Frédéric Ozanam feared that he would not have a fruitful career, but his legacy remains a powerful testimony to his greatness. This book will interest scholars wishing to know more about Ozanam and the period in which he lived, as well as a wider audience, including those who are aware of or are members of the Society of St. Vincent de Paul.

Abstract

L’histoire sans les femmes n’est plus possible, l’affaire est entendue. Mais les religieuses ont longtemps disparu dans les silences de l’histoire. Cet ouvrage collectif entend poursuivre l’effort historiographique qui tend au croisement de l’histoire des femmes et de l’histoire religieuse. Il s’inscrit dans le renouveau des recherches, en particulier dans l’espace anglo-saxon, dont bénéficient aujourd’hui les congrégations.Vingt-cinq textes abordent ici l’histoire des Filles de la Charité, les fameuses sœurs à « cornettes » qui appartiennent encore à l’imaginaire occidental. Après quatre siècles, les Sœurs de Saint- Vincent-de-Paul demeurent à l’échelle du monde la plus importante des congrégations catholiques (20000 sœurs). Leur histoire n’avait pourtant jamais été écrite. Elle est désormais possible grâce à l’ouverture des archives de la maison mère à Paris, croisées avec des fonds publics et privés tant en France qu’à l’étranger. L’ouvrage aborde le temps long et les ruptures d’une congrégation, déploie les échelles du local à l’international comme il s’interroge sur les conditions politiques et culturelles du « service des pauvres ».

Abstract

L'année 2013 marqua le bicentenaire de la naissance de Frédéric Ozanam. L'Institut catholique de la Méditerranée organisa à cette occasion un colloque qui lui était dédié. Alors que s'ouvre l'année de la Miséricorde, cet ouvrage, qui restitue de façon très accessible les différentes contributions du colloque, permet de découvrir cet homme étonnant, polyglotte, docteur en droit, agrégé de lettres, professeur à la Sorbonne, journaliste polémique, historien autodidacte, inventeur du droit social français et de la littérature comparée, initiateur des conférences de Carême à Notre-Dame-de-Paris, engagé en politique, mari, père et enfin et surtout fondateur de la Société Saint Vincent de Paul. Intellectuel brillant, il s'engagea ainsi de façon radicale au service des plus fragiles. Il fut un prophète infatigable de la Miséricorde.

Abstract

This thoughtful study challenges a number of widespread assumptions about the role of Catholicism in Mexican history by examining two related Catholic charities: the male Society of St. Vincent de Paul and the Ladies of Charity of St. Vincent de Paul.
