Preaching Death in Early Modern France and England

Sixteenth and Seventeenth Centuries

Se fondant sur une approche pluridisciplinaire et comparative (théologie, histoire des mentalités, histoire des idées religieuses, histoire littéraire), ce colloque se présente comme une enquête géographique et confessionnelle sur la prédication chrétienne autour de la mort en France et en Angleterre au XVIe et au XVIIe siècles. Les communications présentées se proposeront d’étudier le sermon non seulement comme un texte imprimé mais aussi comme un acte public, un discours prononcé devant et pour une assemblée, et donc une performance mettant en présence des acteurs du corps religieux et social.
