Navigating the Fourth Republic
Through the end of the Third Republic, only tiny numbers of West African students managed to study at France’s universities. Barriers to higher education began to fall after World War II, especially after African populations collectively gained citizenship. Higher education became a high-stakes policy area, as French officials and West African students and politicians vied to influence the parameters and possibilities of the postwar order. Amid e…
E lizabeth A. F oster . African Catholic
Whereas the subject of decolonization has often been approached through the lenses of politics and emerging nation-states, Elizabeth A. Foster’s recently published book, African Catholic: Decolonization and the Transformation of the Church, examines the end of empire through the novel prism of the “Franco-African Catholic world.” By the middle of the twentieth century, that world was being rocked by questions, anxieties, hopes, and transformation…

Theodotians
Named for one Theodotus, described as a “leather merchant” or “shoemaker,” the Theodotians were a group in the Roman church of the late second and early third centuries, which is characterized in the sources chiefly by its advocacy of an adoptionistic christology (or a “dynamic monarchian” theology) that regarded Jesus as human, not divine (Eusebius Hist. eccl . 5.28; Hippolytus Haer . 6.23–4, 10.19; Epiphanius Adv. Haers . 54; Novatian De trin .…
Canon of Scripture
Among religions of western antiquity, only Judaism and Christianity developed canons of scripture, that is, delimited bodies of literature regarded as uniquely and exclusively authoritative for their respective communities. These two scriptural canons emerged in different periods, were indebted to different causes, and produced distinctive results.

La crise de l’enseignement en Afrique occidentale française (1944-1950)
Au lendemain de la Deuxième Guerre mondiale, la réforme scolaire devient un enjeu majeur en Afrique occidentale française (AOF). Les écoles coloniales de la Troisième République sont mises en cause pendant la Conférence de Brazzaville de 1944 et, dans les années qui suivent, on assiste à d’âpres luttes pour définir le sens de la réforme scolaire. Jusqu’à présent, ces luttes – qui opposent l’administration coloniale, les élus africains, et le mini…
Peasants of the Empire. Rural Schools and the Colonial Imaginary in 1930s French West Africa
During the Great Depression, authorities in French West Africa launched an ambitious program of educational reform centered around "rural schools". These new schools were part of a broader effort to rethink African societies and their development within the colonial order. Neither assimilationist nor associationist, rural schools were designed to train a new generation of African "peasants", who would embrace a dose of modernization while remaini…
The National Revolution in French West Africa
Founded in early 1942 as a conduit for National Revolution propaganda, the publication Dakar-Jeunes would also provide an unexpected forum for far-reaching cultural debates. As part of its investigation of cultural development ( l'volution culturelle ) in French West Africa, this paper solicited and published a range of articles written by young African elites. It soon became apparent that African contributors to Dakar-Jeunes were staging their o…

Fayum Fragment
The so-called Fayum Fragment is a small scrap of papyrus (3.5 × 4.3 cm.), dating from the 3d Century, that partially preserves a version of Jesus’ prediction of Peter’s denial. The papyrus, discovered in 1885 among a collection of ancient Egyptian documents acquired by Archduke Rainer, is now held b
Egerton Papyrus 2
Papyrus Egerton 2 (P. Lond. Christ. 1) consists of some small fragments of an early Christian papyrus codex which contained a Gospeltype document. This document, otherwise unattested, is often called “the Unknown Gospel.” Four fragments of this codex were found in 1934 among a miscellaneous group of
Euhemerism and Christology in Origen
L'utilisation de l'evhemerisme par les apologistes chretiens comporte le danger evident de faire assimiler la divinite de Jesus a une apotheose. Ce que Celse suppose et rejette comme une absurdite dans le passage en question, en fonction de l'interpretation sceptique de l'evhemerisme. Or, il est remarquable que, dans sa reponse, Origene developpe ses affirmations christologiques precisement dans le contexte de la conception greco-romaine des homm…
