This book critically explores the idea of Europe since the French Revolution from the perspective of intellectual history. It traces the dominant and recurring theme of Europe-as-Christendom in discourse concerning the relationship of religion, politics and society, in historiography and hermeneutics, and in theories and constructions of identity and 'otherness'. It examines the evolution of a grand narrative by which European elites have sought to define European and national identity. This narrative, the author argues, maintains the existence of common historical and intellectual roots, common values, culture and religion. The book explores its powerful legacy in the positive creation of a sense of European unity, the ways in which it has been exploited for ideological purposes, and its impact on non-Christian communities within Europe.

Ordre militaire-religieux issu des Croisades, chassé du Levant en 1522, les Hospitaliers de Saint-Jean de Jérusalem, mieux connus sous le nom de chevaliers de Malte, établissent en 1530 leur couvent en Méditerranée occidentale, devenant des acteurs essentiels de l’histoire de l’Europe dans la première modernité. Cet ordre, constitué par la fine fleur de la noblesse européenne, compte aux XVIe-XVIIe siècles un nombre très élevé de nobles français et particulièrement provençaux ; ces derniers représentent le quart des grands-maîtres élus en un siècle et demi. Les chevaliers se spécialisent dans la définition nobiliaire, par l’établissement d’un système d’admissions fondé sur la constitution d’écritures et de généalogies et sur la fourniture de preuves de la pureté du sang et de la race. Cet ordre, symbole d’une perpétuation de la guerre sainte en Méditerranée, est aussi confronté à la diffusion du protestantisme au sein des noblesses européennes, qui l’oblige à conforter son identité religieuse par l’application stricte dans le couvent de la Réforme catholique, œuvrant à une grande discipline des corps et des mœurs des chevaliers. Dans un couvent dirigé à Malte par des grands-maîtres qui mettent en place une véritable vie de cour, les chevaliers sont également sensibilisés aux théories et aux évolutions politiques qui s’observent en Europe : des conjurations nobiliaires éclatent, qui tentent en vain de résister aux ambitions princières des grands-maîtres.

Robert Bellarmine was one of the pillars of post-Reformation Catholicism: he was a celebrated theologian and a highly ranked member of the Congregations of the Inquisition and of the Index, the censor in charge of the Galileo affair. Bellarmine was also one of the most original political theorists of his time, and he participated directly in many of the political conflicts that agitated Europe between the end of the sixteenth and the beginning of the seventeenth century. Stefania Tutino offers the first full-length study of the impact of Bellarmine's theory of the potestas indirecta in early modern Europe. Following the reactions to Bellarmine's theory across national and confessional boundaries, this book explores some of the most crucial political and theological knots in the history of post-Reformation Europe, from the controversy over the Oath of Allegiance to the battle over the Interdetto in Venice. The book sets those political and religious controversies against the background of the theological and institutional developments of the post-Tridentine Catholic Church. By examining the violent and at times surprising controversies originated by Bellarmine's theory, this book challenges some of the traditional assumptions regarding the theological shape of post-Tridentine Catholicism; it offers a fresh perspective on the centrality of the links between confessional affiliation and political allegiance in the development of the modern nation-states; and it contributes to our understanding of the development of 'modern' notions of power and authority.
