Der Band fragt nach der historischen Signatur literarischer Säkularisierungsphänomene zwischen dem 11. und 15. Jahrhundert, nach einer 'Säkularisierung vor der Säkularisierung' also, in der die begriffsprägenden Oppositionen transzendent-immanent, heilig-profan, geistlich-weltlich noch nicht neuzeitlich gegeneinander ausdifferenziert sind. In exemplarischen Analysen wird entfaltet, wie sich Ästhetisches und Religiöses in der Literatur des Mittelalters überschneiden, aber auch voneinander abgrenzen. Im Fokus stehen textuelle (narrative, figurative, spiritualitätsgeschichtlich oder politisch relevante) Säkularisierungsstrategien in unterschiedlichsten Textgattungen. Den Beiträgen gelingt es, die gegenwärtigen Debatten zum Thema "Literarische Säkularisierung" historisch neu zu perspektivieren.

In his native Italy Augusto Del Noce is regarded as one of the preeminent political thinkers and philosophers of the period after the Second World War. The Crisis of Modernity makes available for the first time in English a selection of Del Noce's essays and lectures on the cultural history of the twentieth century. Del Noce maintained that twentieth-century history must be understood specifically as a philosophical history, because Western culture was profoundly affected by the major philosophies of the previous century such as idealism, Marxism, and positivism. Such philosophies became the secular, neo-gnostic surrogate of Christianity for the European educated classes after the French Revolution, and the next century put them to the practical test, bringing to light their ultimate and necessary consequences. One of the first thinkers to recognize the failure of Marxism, Del Noce posited that this failure set the stage for a new secular, technocratic society that had taken up Marx’s historical materialism and atheism while rejecting his revolutionary doctrine. Displaying Del Noce's rare ability to reconstruct intellectual genealogies and to expose the deep metaphysical premises of social and political movements, The Crisis of Modernity presents an original reading of secularization, scientism, the sexual revolution, and the history of modern Western culture.

Secularism and humanism: a title and two very topical words, both in Quebec and elsewhere in the world. This work, with contributions from key players who fuel the debate on the meaning and definition of secularism in 21st century Quebec, is timely. The texts of Thomas De Koninck, Jacques Dufresne, Georges Leroux, Guillaume Rousseau, Mathieu Bock-Côté, Normand Baillargeon, Mohamed Lotfi and Charles Le Blanc do not defend a particular thesis about secularism. Rather, they form a set of polyphonic reflections which present themselves as a philosophical, legal, political and sociological contribution to the question of the religious neutrality of the state. Secularism, Humanism, Québec, tolerance Laïcité et humanisme : un titre et deux mots de grande actualité tant au Québec qu’ailleurs dans le monde. Cet ouvrage, avec des contributions d’acteurs clés qui alimentent le débat sur le sens et la définition de la laïcité dans le Québec du xxie siècle, arrive à point nommé. Les textes de Thomas De Koninck, Jacques Dufresne, Georges Leroux, Guillaume Rousseau, Mathieu Bock-Côté, Normand Baillargeon, Mohamed Lotfi et Charles Le Blanc ne défendent pas une thèse particulière à propos de la laïcité. Ils forment plutôt un ensemble de réflexions polyphoniques qui se présentent comme une contribution philosophique, juridique, politique et sociologique à la question de la neutralité religieuse de l’État. À la fin du recueil figure un texte de Voltaire sur la tolérance, qui vient à la fois inscrire les questions abordées dans une perspective historique et illustrer le caractère continu d’un débat dont cet ouvrage se veut l’un des nombreux échos.
