  Serving the king during religious wars

  Cette journée d’études souhaite interroger les différentes configurations du service royal dans le contexte particulier des guerres de religion françaises. Elle a aussi pour ambition d’embrasser tout le spectre social, dans une perspective comparative permettant de rendre compte des différentes facettes du service du roi et d’envisager autant les groupes sociaux que les trajectoires individuelles.

  Theological Foundations of Modern Constitutional Theory: 16th-17th Centuries

  Fondements théologiques de la théorie constitutionnelle moderne : XVIe-XVIIe siècles

  This conference aims to assemble different studies laying bridges between modern constitutional theories and theology from the perspective of intellectual history. Though modernity of law and politics has been usually accounted in the context of Reformation, the paper-givers’ approaches to the question will not be restricted in any confessional perspective, Protestant or Catholic. For, whatever the word ‘theology’ may have connoted in the time of religious confrontations, theoretical attempts to legitimize human rights and political authority at those days can be regarded as part of the general current of philosophical investigations, in a new manner and with different foci than ever, into the concept of justice with reference to that of God.
