  • A 'Pascal' Mystery

    Norman RavitchARTICLEReligion1997References: 1

    Kolakowski notait qu'en depit de la defense vigoureuse des jansenistes par Pascal, les Pensees representaient un augustinisme tres orthodoxe qui n'avait que peu a voir avec la polemique janseniste. La triste religion de Pascal est en fait celle de nombreux chretiens depuis deux mille ans. Quel etait la meilleure solution pour combattre l'incroyance, celle des jansenistes ou celle des jesuites? La separation de la raison et de la foi est-elle une …

  • The Abbé Fauchet: Romantic Religion During the French Revolution

    Norman RavitchARTICLEJournal of the American Academy…1974

    LAUDE Fauchet was a fairly obscure French Catholic priest who died during the French Revolution. Since he was not a unknown whom it is imperative for us to know, one should avoid inflating his importance. It is only his attempt, through the vehicle of what can be called religion, to adapt Catholicism to modern conditions during an era of revolutionary change which deserves attention. In its eighteenth-century origins Romanticism involved more (or…

  • Liberalism, Catholicism, and the Abbé Grégoire

    Open AccessNorman RavitchARTICLEChurch History1967Cited by: 1

    With the convening and accomplishments of the Second Vatican Council liberal Catholicism seems triumphant in the Catholic Church. Despite continuing controversy over such agonizing problems as birth control, it would appear that the Church has forthrightly and definitely decided to reconcile itself as fully as possible to modern society. From this present perspective, the historian may well need to reexamine certain aspects of the rise of liberal…

  • II. The Social Origins of French and English Bishops in the Eighteenth Century

    Open AccessNorman RavitchARTICLEThe Historical Journal1965References: 1

    The increasing emphasis of historians of the eighteenth century on the role of aristocracy under the old régime justifies looking once again, more carefully, at the upper clergy of the established religious cults. The leaders of the established churches were ex officio , if not also by birth, always members of the aristocracy. No comprehension of the membership, organization, or objectives of the eighteenth-century aristocracy is possible without…

  • The Taxing of the Clergy in Eighteenth-Century France

    Open AccessNorman RavitchARTICLEChurch History1964References: 1

    If after many years of scholarship and controversy, the French Revolution is to be seen, with Georges Lefebvre, as preeminently the revolution of equality, and its most important achievement the substitution of a bourgeois and individualistic social order for the former aristocratic and corporatist one, the nature of eighteenth-century corporate or "constituted bodies" becomes a major area for research. There are many questions which the historia…
