This book presents a semiotic study of the re-elaboration of Christian narratives and values in a corpus of Italian novels published after the Second Vatican Council (1960s). It tackles the complex set of ideas expressed by Italian writers about the biblical narration of human origins and traditional religious language and ritual, the perceived clash between the immanent and transcendent nature and role of the Church, and the problematic notion of sanctity emerging from contemporary narrative.

The institution of monasticism in the Christian Church is in general decline, at least in so-called “first world” nations. Though there are many reasons for this, monastic leaders are confronted by the reality of fewer communities, monks, and nuns nonetheless. At the same time, many younger Christians are rediscovering the rich heritage of the monastic tradition. Though they themselves might not be called to join a traditional monastery, they are eager to appropriate monastic practices in their own lives. This had led to a movement known as the “new monasticism” or “secular monasticism.” Despite lacking a unified vision and any central organization, these new/secular monastics are attempting, in their own ways, to carry on the tradition and practices of Christian monasticism. As well, there is a movement within historical Christian monasteries to pour new wine into old wineskins. Traditional forms of monasticism are also generally flourishing in developing nations, breathing new life into monasticism. This volume looks at the current monastic landscape to assess where monasticism stands and to imagine ways in which it will grow in the future, leading not only to a renewed Christian monasticism but to new monasticisms.

L’historiographie du Concile Vatican II accorde une place limitée au monde des religieux. Ce constat a guidé le projet du colloque international réuni à Rome en 2014 à l’initiative du LARHRA pour proposer une approche globale et évaluer les variables liées à la diversité des familles religieuses, des contextes sociaux ou ecclésiaux et des réalités nationales ou transnationales. En se centrant sur l’Europe occidentale et l’Amérique du Nord et en croisant les études de cas, il a permis de mieux saisir la place de l’événement conciliaire dans les dynamiques de changement à l’œuvre dans les décennies 1950, 1960 et 1970.
