C’est au xviie siècle en France que la thèse illustrée connaît son apogée. À l’exemple de Richelieu et de Mazarin, Louis XIV accorda aux thèses une place de choix dans la diffusion de son image. De 1638 à 1704, plus de 130 thèses de philosophie, théologie, droit et médecine lui furent dédiées. Même si certaines sont destinées à son père, à sa mère ou aux parlements de province, il apparaît en haut de l’affiche en personne ou par ses armoiries. Les étudiants étaient issus de l’entourage royal, fils de ministres ou de parlementaires, membres de congrégations religieuses, et quelquefois même étrangers. Courtisans, parlementaires et ecclésiastiques de haut rang participaient à la soutenance publique où le candidat et sa famille adressaient des éloges au roi. On y distribuait des affiches ornées de son portrait ou d’une allégorie à sa gloire exécutées par les meilleurs artistes du temps, aussi les dépenses engagées étaient-elles considérables. Soutenues à Paris, mais également en province et à l’étranger, les thèses, et avec elles l’image du roi, pénétraient les demeures des Français et se diffusaient à l’extérieur du royaume. Cet ouvrage décrit successivement la place des thèses dans le cursus universitaire, leur soutenance, leur dédicace et leur diffusion ainsi que l’élaboration de leurs illustrations, en insistant sur le rôle des peintres, graveurs et éditeurs. Il montre comment elles rendent compte de l’histoire du roi et de l’évolution de son portrait physique et moral. Ce volume est accompagné d’un catalogue raisonné, abondamment illustré, des thèses dédiées au roi, consultable sur les sites du Centre de recherche du château de Versailles et des Presses universitaires de Rennes.

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.
