Abstract

Comment le christianisme, rameau du judaïsme, s'est-il construit dans un Proche-Orient travaillé par les mouvements messianiques ? Comment l'Église s'est-elle organisée, d'abord dans la clandestinité, puis à partir du IVe siècle, une fois le christianisme devenu la religion officielle de l'Empire romain ? Quel était le quotidien d'un chrétien dans les empires d'Orient et d'Occident ? Quels débats doctrinaux ont déchiré la chrétienté tout au long de son histoire, quels ont été ses rapports avec les hérétiques, les juifs, les musulmans ? Comment l'autorité du pape s'est-elle imposée comme une spécificité du catholicisme ? Humbles laïcs, moines, prêtres ou évêques, comment vivaient-ils, au Moyen âge, les rythmes liturgiques, le culte des saints, l'appel de la croisade ou la peur de la mort ? Quelles ont été les réactions de l'Église face à l'irruption de la modernité ? Comment s'est faite l'expansion du catholicisme en Asie, en Afrique ou en Amérique, où il compte aujourd'hui le plus grand nombre de fidèles ? Ce livre raconte deux mille ans d'une histoire souvent réduite à quelques dates éparses et à quelques images, sanglantes ou suaves : une histoire pourtant intimement mêlée à notre passé

Abstract

Throughout the second half of the twentieth century, sacramental theology has evolved as a discipline advancing comprehensive theories of sacraments and sacramentality as integral to the Christian faith while also studying the history and theology of the particular rites. Now, in the twenty-first century, the need for attention to the actual performance and specific social settings of sacramental worship has become well established. This makes the work of sacramental theology necessarily engaged with multiple, cross-disciplinary theories attentive to particular contexts, whether local, national, or global. Still, the divine human encounter at the heart of Christian symbol and ritual likewise beckons to philosophical–theological reflection. The essays in this volume begin with profound philosophical perspectives on the personal and communal sacramental experience, expanding from traditional cosmology to evolutionary and chaos theories of our planetary existence, continuing with shifts, especially among youth, to interreligious and non-institutional perspectives, consideration of change in popular notions of guilt, and social–ethical issues in relation to liturgical theology and practice, so as finally to return to fundamental theological reflection on human sacramentality and divine revelation.

Abstract

Aimed at a wide audience of readers, The Anthropology of Catholicism is the first companion guide to this burgeoning field within the anthropology of Christianity. Bringing to light Catholicism's long but comparatively ignored presence within the discipline of anthropology, the book introduces readers to key studies in the field, as well as to current analyses on the present and possible futures of Catholicism globally. This reader provides both ethnographic material and theoretical reflections on Catholicism around the world, demonstrating how a revised anthropology of Catholicism can generate new insights and analytical frameworks that will impact anthropology as well as other disciplines.
