Regulars and the Secular Realm: The Benedictines of the Congregation of Saint-Maur during the 18th Century and the French Revolution
Autor Mary Kathryn Robinsonen Limba Engleză Hardback – 19 mar 2009
In the late eighteenth century, the French Republic evicted religious orders from their monasteries and forced them back into secular life. Regulars and the Secular Realm is a detailed account of the monks’ plight, chronicling the injustices perpetrated by government officials as well as the general antagonism towards the Catholic Church. As Mary Kathryn Robinson reveals, this fraught period of history offered a promise of “liberty for all”—except Catholics. This vivid recounting of Benedictines and the French Revolution will interest scholars and history buffs alike.

Recenzii
“Robinson does a great job of showing just how unjustly officials of the French Republic treated the Maurists and enlightening us about the outrageous hypocrisy of the Revolution’s high ‘ideals.’ Important history, since that was the beginning of modern liberalism’s antagonism towards traditional Christianity.”
“This well-researched book by Mary Kathryn Robinson makes a significant contribution to the more sympathetic and nuanced reading of eighteenth-century European monasticism currently underway.”
