Abstract

"Est-ce Jésus qui a fondé le christianisme ?" Jésus était juif, il est mort juif. Ce qui est devenu le christianisme a d'abord été une mouvance spirituelle, une "Voie", à l'intérieur de la religion juive. Il en est sorti vers la fin du 1e siècle. "Le christianisme naissant était-il une religion ?" Il a vécu sans prêtres ni temples pendant plus d'un siècle et demi. S'il a possédé très tôt quelques pratiques rituelles et cultuelles, il n'était pas véritablement une religion au sens où on l'entendait dans l'Antiquité, c'est-à-dire au sens où il aurait été la religion d'une société religieuse particulière avec ses temples et ses prêtres. "Le christianisme avait-il pour but de créer une société chrétienne ?" Il se développe durant les trois premiers siècles en dehors de toute attache à une société quelconque. Il s'inspire d'un idéal de fraternité universelle qui le situe à l'opposé du modèle général des sociétés religieuses de l'Antiquité. Ce n'est pas l'Eglise, ce sont des empereurs romains qui en ont fait au quatrième siècle la religion officielle de leur empire. Telles sont les principales questions qu'aborde cet ouvrage. Réalisé à partir des travaux d'un certain nombre d'historiens de cette période extrêmement complexe, il tente de fournir au lecteur quelques éléments de réflexion sur le mode synthétique le plus clair possible.

Abstract

"How did a community that was largely invisible in the first two centuries of its existence go on to remake the civilizations it inhabited, culturally, politically, and intellectually? Beginning with the life of Jesus, Robert Louis Wilken narrates the dramatic spread and development of Christianity over the first thousand years of its history. Moving through the formation of early institutions, practices, and beliefs to the transformations of the Roman world after the conversion of Constantine, he sheds new light on the subsequent stories of Christianity in the Latin West, the Byzantine and Slavic East, the Middle East, and Central Asia.Through a selected narration of particularly noteworthy persons and events, Wilken demonstrates how the coming of Christianity set in motion one of the most profound revolutions the world has known. This is not a story limited to the West; rather, Christian communities in Ethiopia, Nubia, Armenia, Georgia, Persia, Central Asia, India, and China shaped the course of Christian history. The rise and spread of Islam had a lasting impact on the future of Christianity, and several chapters are devoted to the early experiences of Christians under Muslim rule. Wilken reminds us that the career of Christianity is characterized by decline and attrition as well as by growth and expansion. Ten years in the making and the result of a lifetime of study, this is Robert Louis Wilken's summa, a moving, reflective, and commanding account from a scholar at the height of his powers"--
