"The Roman Catholic Church strictly forbids women's ordination, arguing that women priests defy God's will for the Church. Enter Roman Catholic Womanpriests (RCWP), an international movement that has ordained nearly 250 women worldwide, mostly in the United States and Canada. The Vatican insists that women have never been and can never be priests; RCWP responds by ordaining womenpriests who lead worship communities, perform sacramental ministries, and embody Christ as women. RCWP trangresses official Roman Catholic teaching while seeking to uphold and redeem Roman Catholic traditions--all while provocatively claiming to be Roman Catholic. In order to understand how womenpriests navigate tradition and transgression, this study situates RCWP within post-Vatican II Catholicism, apostolic succession, sacraments, ministerial action, and questions of embodiment. This book reveals RCWP to be a discrete religious movement in a distinct religious moment, with a small group of tenacious women defying the Catholic patriarchy, taking on the priestly role and demanding reconsideration of Roman Catholic tradition. Doing so, the women inhabit and recreate the central tension in Catholicism today"-- Book cover.

Comme tous les mots en « -isme », l'anticléricalisme désigne un projet politique cohérent, une attitude idéologique, un système de pensée homogène. Au sens strict, il se rapporte à l'ensemble des manifestations, actes ou discours, qui s'opposent à l'ingérence des Églises dans les affaires publiques. Apogée de sa version institutionnelle : la IIIe République, qui vota les principales lois laïques.Or, il y a bien des manières d'être anticlérical, et les anticléricaux s'en sont souvent pris aux dogmes, à diverses formes de piété et aux clergés, quels qu'ils soient. Traditionnellement tourné contre le catholicisme, l'anticléricalisme n'ignore donc pas les autres religions, notamment l'islam. Mais s'opposer aux Églises, est-ce forcément s'opposer aux religions?.

La Repubblica romana del 1849 è uno dei momenti più avvincenti della stagione eroica del Risorgimento, un'avventura di breve durata, ma nella quale i contemporanei riconobbero l'opportunità di realizzare ideali di libertà, tolleranza e democrazia. La presente ricerca analizza il ruolo svolto dalla religione all'interno dell'esperimento politico e sociale intrapreso a Roma dopo la fuga del papa, quando si percepì forte la necessità di ridefinire i rapporti tra autorità civile e religiosa e il ruolo della religione nella società: un compito niente affatto facile se applicato ad una realtà statuale dove potere politico e potere religioso erano rimasti sovrapposti per secoli, ma che segnerà un precedente ineludibile al quale guardare nei tentativi successivi di costruzione di uno Stato laico.
