Religion et politique s'entremêlent sans cesse au Grand Siècle. Parfois de façon dramatique : Louis XIV ordonne en i7io de raser l'abbaye de Port-Royal-des-Champs et de vider le cimetière de ses morts. A l'origine de cette histoire, une figure mythique : Angélique Arnauld. En 1602, elle n'a que dix ans lorsqu'elle est nommée abbesse, contre son gré, de ce monastère moyenâgeux perdu dans la vallée de Chevreuse. A dix-sept ans, prise d'un soudain désir de servir Dieu, elle décide de faire de l'abbaye le flambeau de la Contre-Réforme. Cette mission, elle va la mener à bien, corps et âme littéralement, pendant un demi-siècle. Sous l'influence d'éminents ecclésiastiques qui s'emparent de sa conscience tourmentée, Port-Royal devient le foyer du jansénisme. En ce siècle des héros et des saints, de nombreux Français sont favorables à un mouvement qui exalte les valeurs du christianisme primitif telles que saint Augustin était supposé les avoir définies. Parmi eux, La Rochefoucauld, madame de Sévigné, Pascal ou encore Racine. Les jansénistes sont-ils des moralistes intransigeants, des intégristes rétrogrades, les pionniers d'une pensée libre ? Le pouvoir ne se pose pas toutes ces questions en cette époque où se fabriquent l'honnête homme mais aussi l'absolutisme et le despotisme bureaucratique. Les jansénistes s'écartent de la ligne officielle, et cela suffit pour en faire une cible à abattre. Plusieurs papes soufflent sur le feu, car leurs intérêts rejoignent ceux du roi de France, et décrètent que le jansénisme est une hérésie. Port-Royal est certes détruit mais le jansénisme fera le lit des Lumières et de l'esprit de liberté.

"Feminism, absolutism, and Jansenism chronicles seventy years of Jansenist conflict and its complex intersection with power struggles between gallican bishops, Parlementaires, the Crown, and the pope. Daniella Kostroun focuses on the nuns of Port-Royal-des-Champs, whose community was disbanded by Louis XIV in 1709 as a threat to the state. Paradoxically, it was the nuns' adherence to their strict religious rule and the ideal of pious, innocent, and politically disinterested behavior that allowed them to challenge absolutism effectively. Adopting methods from cultural studies, feminism, and the Cambridge school of political thought, Kostroun examines how these nuns placed gender at the heart of the Jansenist challenge to the patriarchal and religious foundations of absolutism; they responded to royal persecution with a feminist defense of women's spiritual and rational equality and of the autonomy of the individual subject, thereby offering a bold challenge to the patriarchal and religious foundations of absolutism"--Provided by publisher.
