The Hussite movement was a historical watershed - popular and scholastic theology combined with a nascent Czech nationalism to produce a full-scale social revolution that presaged the Reformation and the birth of the modern nation state. The Hussites defeated the Empire and the Pope, and their king George Poděbrady advocated a trans-national European state. Hussite theology influenced Martin Luther and the birth of Protestantism. This survey introduces the reader to the events, people, and ideas that define this remarkable movement.

La compétition qui se met en place au xvie siècle en Occident entre protestants et catholiques pousse chaque camp à accorder une attention particulière à la formation des cœurs et des esprits, jugée stratégique par tous, ainsi qu’en atteste par exemple la réorientation rapide de l’activité des premiers jésuites. Avec d’autres facteurs (le renouvellement des paradigmes intellectuels au moment de l’humanisme, les nouvelles attentes de la monarchie et les nouveaux critères de sélection des élites sociales), cette compétition confessionnelle apparaît alors comme un puissant moteur de développement de l’offre éducative. Le lien privilégié entre protestantisme et éducation est devenu un lieu commun, ainsi que l’idée d’une meilleure alphabétisation protestante. Mais, curieusement, peu d’études récentes ont cherché à en démontrer la véracité. Les pratiques éducatives réformées réelles sous l’Ancien Régime sont en fait mal connues, d’autant qu’elles diffèrent beaucoup, depuis les débuts difficiles du xvie siècle, au temps plus calme de l’édit de Nantes puis à la clandestinité du xviiie. Ce volume cherche à les éclairer, depuis la première éducation à l’enseignement dispensé dans les académies, toujours en se demandant s’il est possible d’établir un lien entre une confession et une forme particulière d’éducation. Afin d’y parvenir, des spécialistes de l’histoire de l’éducation et de l’histoire du protestantisme se sont réunis lors d’un colloque tenu à Lyon les 11 et 12 octobre 2013. Ce sont les actes de cette rencontre qui sont reproduits ici.

This book examines key issues in Christianity from various philosophical points of view. It brings together European authors with American theologians and philosophers on an interconfessional basis. Coverage combines analytical and continental approaches in a unique way. This comprehensive, innovative analysis will help readers gain a deep understanding into a wide range of philosophical approaches to basic Christian problems. The novelty of this volume is the unique combination of philosophical and theological approaches. It merges these points-of-view in a rational manner which characterizes segments of Anglo-American and Continental thought. The scope of the work covers historical issues, contemporary problems of atheism, and also novel approaches to fundamental notions. Readers will learn about questions surrounding the French New Theology, Zizek’s philosophical sources, the notion of revelation, and much more. As a work produced by European and United States scholars, this volume is an important contribution not only to the dialogue between various academic cultures, but also to the expression of their fruitful cooperation which grounds and inspires serious academic research. The readership of this work begins at an undergraduate level and reaches up to academic researchers and professors interested in borderline problems between philosophy and theology, history and contemporary issues.
