The theologico-political problematic has been abundantly treated over the past few years thanks to the works of Carl Schmitt and, more widely, debates about the role of religions in public life and politics. So we have become familiar with the expression ‘Political theology’ without having a precise definition of the theology and the religious tradition it refers to. This lack of precision is also present within Christianity. If a Christian theologico-political phenomenon indeed exists, it is polysemous in nature because of historical periodization and the plurality of ecclesial traditions. This work explores the originality of Christian the theologico-political problematic in its ensemble as well as its different components, while identifying those concepts that are specifically Christian. Among them, that of mediation is central; beginning with the mediation of Christ and the Church. But this book also aims to show that the theologico-political consequences of Christian mediation have been decisive in the genesis of modern secularity, with the advent of the State and the Liberal State. So a theologico-political interpretation of the autonomous/secular constitution of Western and European societies is indispensible, as the political philosophies of the Classic Age show. Le problème théologico-politique est depuis ces dernières années abondamment traité à la faveur des œuvres de Carl Schmitt et, plus largement, des débats relatifs à la place des religions dans l'espace public et politique. De là une inflation de l'expression « Théologie politique » sans jamais rigoureusement préciser à quelle théologie et à quelle tradition religieuse renvoie cette expression. Ce manque de précision vaut à l'intérieur même du christianisme. S'il existe un phénomène théologico-politique chrétien, celui-ci n'en est pas moins polysémique en raison de ses périodisations historiques et de la pluralité de ses traditions ecclésiales. Cet ouvrage entend articuler l'originalité du théologico-politique chrétien dans sa globalité à ses différentes composantes, tout en dégageant des concepts spécifiquement chrétiens. Au nombre de ceux-ci, celui de médiation occupe une place centrale, à commencer par ceux de médiation du Christ et de l'Église. Mais l'ouvrage vise aussi à démontrer que la médiation chrétienne, dans ses conséquences théologico-politiques, a eu une signification décisive dans la genèse de la modernité séculière avec l'avènement de l'État et de l'État libéral. On ne saurait donc faire l'économie d'une interprétation théologico-politique de la constitution autonome/séculière des sociétés européennes et occidentales comme l'attestent les philosophies politiques de l'Âge classique.

Pollution is ubiquitous in Greek tragedy: matricidal Orestes seeks purification at Apollo's shrine in Delphi; carrion from Polyneices' unburied corpse fills the altars of Thebes; delirious Phaedra suffers from a 'pollution of the mind'. This book undertakes the first detailed analysis of the important role which pollution and its counterparts - purity and purification - play in tragedy. It argues that pollution is central in the negotiation of tragic crises, fulfilling a diverse array of functions by virtue of its qualities and associations, from making sense of adversity to configuring civic identity in the encounter of self and other. While primarily a literary study providing close readings of several key plays, the book also provides important new perspectives on pollution. It will appeal to a broad range of scholars and students not only in Classics and literary studies, but also in the study of religions and anthropology.
