Give to Caesar what belongs to Caesar, to God what belongs to God: starting from the challenging interpretation of the famous passage from the Gospel of Matthew (22:21), the here presented monograph by Giovanni Tabacco goes through the stages that defined and shaped the relations between civil and religious powers in the West throughout the medieval millennium. Published for the first time in 1950 by the Faculty of Letters and Philosophy of the University of Turin, the study of the great medievalist belongs to the never forgotten "classics" of Italian medieval historiography. The monograph is preceded by three introductory interventions (Laura Gaffuri, Giovanni Miccoli, Gian Maria Varanini) dedicated to the meaning and relevance of Giovanni Tabacco's reflection, and to the important period of studies that, between the early twentieth century and the immediate second postwar period, questioned the origins of church-state relations.

The growth of the "nones" and those who describe themselves as "spiritual but not religious" creates a pressing need for theological thinking not bound by prescribed doctrines and fixed rituals. This book responds to this vital need.

Il est désormais courant de faire de la spiritualité le nouvel horizon de sens et d'action pour les sociétés modernes et globalisées qui ne sont plus tout à fait religieuses ni totalement sécularisées. Le sacré et le sens de la transcendance se réinventent perpétuellement, mais débordent désormais les traditions et irriguent des domaines aussi différents que le sport, la médecine, l'éducation, l'entreprise, l'écologie ou encore les technologies. C'est à ce voyage au-delà des frontières (religieuses, culturelles et disciplinaires) qu'invite une notion de spiritualité qui ne cesse d'être remaniée tout en conservant un cadre de signification qui lui assure son identité : celle d'une aspiration au dépassement de la condition humaine. Ce livre offre ainsi un panorama des usages et des significations associés à la spiritualité, dans l'histoire et dans les sociétés, dans ses différents domaines d'application, et introduit aux débats critiques soulevés par l'engouement récent et massif pour le "spirituel".

"It is a striking aspect of contemporary western culture that, alongside a decline in traditional religious affiliations, there has been a growing interest in spirituality and the use of the word in a variety of contexts. Indeed, spirituality is sometimes contrasted favorably with religion, which many people see (for good or ill) as an off-putting amalgam of dogma, moralism, institutions, buildings, and hierarchies. This Very Short Introduction, written by one of the most eminent scholars and writers on spirituality, explores the historical foundations of spirituality and considers how it came to have the significance it has today. The notion of spirituality, Philip Sheldrake notes, expresses the fact that many people are driven by goals that concern more than material satisfaction. Broadly, it refers to the deepest values and sense of meaning by which people seek to live. Sometimes these values are conventionally religious. Sometimes they are associated with what is understood as "the sacred" in a broader sense--that is, of ultimate rather than merely instrumental importance. Looking at spirituality in religion, philosophy, anthropology, and psychology, Sheldrake sheds light on the concept of the spiritual "experience" and considers the impact and transformation it can have on individuals and on society."--Publisher's website.

"In Peace Love Yoga, Jain analyses growing spiritual industries and their coherence with neoliberal capitalism. "Personal growth," "self-care," and "transformation" are just some of the generative tropes in the narrative of these industries. Jain illuminates the power dynamics underlying what she calls neoliberal spirituality, illustrating how spiritual commodities are rooted in concerns about deviancy, not only in the form of low productivity but also forms of social deviancy. Jain, however, does not just offer one more voice bemoaning the commodification of spirituality as a numbing device through which consumers ignore the problems of neoliberal capitalism or as the corruption or loss of "authentic" religious forms. Instead, she asks what we should make of subversive spiritual discourses that call on adherents to think beyond the individual and even out into the environment, claims to counter the problems of unbridled capitalism with charitable giving or "conscious capitalism," challenges to the imperialism behind the appropriation and commodification of products from yoga to mindfulness, calls for women's empowerment, and efforts to greenwash commodities, making them more environmentally "friendly" or "sustainable." Rather than a mode through which consumers ignore, escape, or are numbed to the problems of neoliberal capitalism, many spiritual commodities, corporations, and entrepreneurs, Jain suggests, do actually acknowledge those problems and, in fact, subvert them; but they subvert them through mere gestures. From provocative taglines printed across t-shirts or packaging to calls for "conscious capitalism," commodification serves as a strategy through which subversion itself is contained"--
