En référence au « sermon sur la montagne » qui figure dans l’Évangile, mais sous le titre plus modeste de « sermons au pied de la montagne », le futur saint Nicolas Vélimirovitch a rassemblé deux série d’homélies prononcées en 1912 et 1923. Les homélies de la première série datent de l’époque où il venait d’être nommé professeur assistant au séminaire Saint-Sava de Belgrade, et où déjà très doué pour la parole, il était invité à instruire le peuple dans des églises de Belgrade et de toute la Serbie. Celles de la deuxième série datent de son séjour aux États-Unis et au Canada, où nommé administrateur de l’évêché serbe américano-canadien nouvellement créé, il donna plus de cent cinquante homélies dans diverses églises.On ne trouvera pas ici les sermons routiniers, moralisateurs et ennuyeux que trop de prédicateurs livrent par obligation, mais des réflexions inspirées, toujours originales, sur des problèmes existentiels qui préoccupent l’homme moderne. Ces homélies sont de la même veine que les Homélies pour les dimanches et jours de fêtes. Mais alors que ces dernières partent de l’évangile du jour, celles-ci sont plus libres et ont plutôt un caractère thématique. Elles visent à renforcer la foi de fidèles qui, au début du XXe siècle, doivent affronter les doutes suscités par une histoire passablement troublée et menaçante, et par les progrès de l’athéisme.On verra que près d’un siècle plus tard, les Sermons sous la montagne et les Nouveaux sermons sous la montagne, considérés comme des œuvres spirituelles majeures du « Chrysostome serbe », n’ont rien perdu de leur actualité, et restent captivantes par l’intelligence de leur contenu et la beauté de leur style.

At the turn of the fourteenth century (1295-1301), the Florentine Dominican Remigio de' Girolami produced a collection of essential texts connected to events in Florentine politics that present the testimony of a well-informed intellectual directly involved in the Communal crises. This article proposes to analyze, as a case study, the influence of Remigio's five sermons on Florentine communal life. His preaching in reaction to the crises shaking Florence happened in dialogue with the institutions and citizens of the Commune. It bears witness to the interactions between Santa Maria Novella and the city of Florence and contributes to the development of the political philosophy of its time.

Recognized as a saint by both Chalcedonian and non-Chalcedonian Christians alike, Jacob of Sarug (d. 521) produced many narrative poems that have rarely been translated into English. Of his reported 760 metrical homilies, only about half survive. Part of a series of fascicles containing the bilingual Syriac-English editions of Saint Jacob of Sarug’s homilies, this volume contains his homilies on the Six Days of Creation. The Syriac text is fully vocalized, and the translation is annotated with a commentary and biblical references. The volume is one of the fascicles of Gorgias Press’s The Metrical Homilies of Mar Jacob of Sarug, which, when complete, will contain all of Jacob’s surviving sermons. In this sixth installment of the long Homily 71, On the Six Days of Creation, Jacob treats the events of the sixth day, the creation of the large beasts and other land animals, and then the creation of man and woman in the persons of Adam and Eve.
