Completed in 1043/1633, the Insān al-ʿuyūn fī sīrat al-nabī l-maʾmūn by the Egyptian shaykh ʿAlī l-Ḥalabī (d. 1044/1635) is better known as Sīra ḥalabiyya. It presents itself as a summary of two Mamluk-era sīra s, the ʿUyūn al-aṯar fī funūn al-maġāzī wa-l-šamāʾil wa-l-siyar by Ibn Sayyid al-Nās (d. 734/1334) and the Subul al-hudā wa-l-rašād fī sīrat ḫayr al-ʿibād , of al-Ṣāliḥī l-Šāmī (d. 942/1536). The Sīra of Ḥalabī was written at the request of the sheikh al-Bakrī and participated in the debates of 11th/17th-century Ottoman Islam. By getting rid of the chains of transmission of hadiths, and of a too strict quest for authenticity, by often avoiding quoting precisely its sources, al-Ḥalabī seeks narrative flexibility for presenting probable, possible, and multiple versions of the Prophet's life. His conciliatory method firmly guides the reader to the signs of the Prophet's presence in human history, where the origins are constantly made current by new narratives. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Between 1575 and 1651, 13 convents were founded in a large part of what is now the territory of the Republic of Colombia. In this article, we analyse the links between these convents and the social and economic environment in which they arose. We aim to study how these institutions functioned as true sounding boards and alternatives to the needs of the social whole, which promoted them in a clear interaction of ideological, social, and economic factors. This perspective attempts to be global and will, therefore, require an examination of regional contexts and their productive possibilities, capable of sustaining religious communities according to the regulations from the Council of Trent. This article approaches a broad historiographical base for a better contextualization of the documentary sources that reveal the beginnings of the convents. The varied bibliography and documents will support a deep and accurate analysis of the social links that the female religious institutions created between the 16th and 17th centuries, and the settlement processes linked to the emergence of female convents and their presence in the Castilianisation of the urban areas of the Audiencia of Santa Fe and the Government of Popayán.

Benoît Gonon, auteur de trois recueils de récits brefs, est aujourd’hui presque complètement inconnu. Étant l’un des épigones de la nouvelle exemplaire au XVIIe siècle, il écrit ses histoires pour moraliser et édifier ses destinataires. Il n’est guère surprenant que, au niveau des thèmes abordés par l’auteur, son œuvre ne révèle pas trop d’originalité. Cependant, on observe chez lui un élément intéressant : les titres qu’il donne à ses recueils de nouvelles et qui contiennent en germe son programme littéraire. Dans chaque volume il se présente comme un compilateur qui cherche l’invention chez d’autres écrivains. Mais, d’un volume à l’autre, Benoît Gonon ajoute aussi d’autres éléments intéressants : il enrichit progressivement la couche thématique de ses recueils, il signale son public visé. Ces amplifications du titre révèlent la préoccupation de notre célestin pour l’efficacité rhétorique des titres de ses recueils.

Résumé : Au XVIe siècle, les succès acquis au Japon par l’Église catholique ont été fort précaires. Dans la première moitié du XVIIe siècle, l’archipel rompt ses relations commerciales avec les puissances ibériques et les communautés catholiques connaissent la répression ; celles-ci sont rapidement coupées de leurs élites et le catholicisme passe progressivement à la clandestinité. Peu de chercheurs se sont interrogés sur le regard que portaient les premières générations de crypto-catholiques (ou chrétiens cachés) sur leur apostasie formelle. Dans cet article, on montrera que le message exclusif des missionnaires ayant pris racine au Japon, la transition forcée vers le secret s’est accompagnée d’une recrudescence des tensions sotériologiques au sein de la chrétienté. Abstract: The successes obtained by the Catholic Church in Japan in the 16th century were precarious. In the first half of the 17th century, the Shogunate ended its commercial relationship with the Iberian states and the Catholics communities had to endure suppression. They were swiftly cut off their religious and lay elites; Catholicism gradually became a secret religion. Few scholars have reflected on the perception the first generations of hidden Catholics (or hidden Christians) had of their formal apostasy. I argue that the exclusivist stance of the Church had taken root in Japan. For this reason, the transition to secrecy came along with outbreaks of soteriological tensions within Christendom. Resumen: El éxito logrado por la Iglesia Católica en el Japón del siglo XVI fue muy precario. En la primera mitad del siglo XVII, el archipiélago rompió sus relaciones comerciales con las potencias ibéricas y las comunidades católicas fueron perseguidas; rápidamente, estas fueron separadas de las élites y la religión cristiana pasa a ser progresivamente clandestina. Pocos investigadores han cuestionado la forma con la que las primeras generaciones de criptocatólicos (o cristianos ocultos) consideraron su apostasía formal. En este artículo, se mostrará que con el mensaje exclusivo de los misioneros que arraigó en Japón, la transición forzada al secreto se acompañó de un aumento de las tensiones soteriológicas dentro de las comunidades cristianas.

Resumen: La década de 1640 fue un periodo en el cual surgieron varios visionarios y falsos profetas que afirmaban tener contacto con Dios y ser los transmisores de sus mensajes a reyes y príncipes. En este contexto, encuadramos los mensajes que la religiosa concepcionista sor María de Ágreda transmitió, por medio del género epistolar, a un atribulado Felipe IV, que tenía ya plena conciencia de que el estado deplorable de sus reinos se debía al castigo de Dios. La religiosa recordó al monarca que Dios le estaba castigando por haber llevado, durante las dos primeras décadas de su reinado, una política de grandeza y reputación. En esta labor, no estuvo sola ya que existieron varios visionarios que compartieron sus planteamientos. Con algunos de ellos, mantuvo una relación fluida. Una investigación detallada permite afirmar que sor María fue la voz de una facción cortesana que instrumentalizó el mensaje divino para instar a Felipe IV a reorientar la política de la Monarquía hispana. Abstract: The 1640’s decade was a period during which were born many visionaries and fake prophets which used messages to Kings and Princes to say that they had direct contact with God and that they were the courier of God’s. Inside this context, we include the messages that the Concepcionista nun Sor María de Ágreda transmitted, by epistolary genre, to the saddened Felipe IV, who was absolutely convince that the disgraceful situation of his Kingdom was a consequence of the God’s punishment. The nun remembered to the King that God was punishing him because, during his two first decades of his reign, he carried on a policy of grandeur and reputation. She was not alone in this job and many others visionaries shared her planning. With some of them, she kept a fluent relationship. A deeply investigation help to say that Sor Maria was the voice of the courtly group who use as a tool the divine´s message to force to Felipe IV to re-orientate the Spanish Monarchy’s politic. Résumé: La décennie 1640 a constitué une période durant laquelle des visionnaires et des faux-prophètes assuraient entrer en contact avec Dieu et être les émetteurs des messages aux rois et princes. Dans ce contexte, les messages de la religieuse Marie d’Ágreda, sœur de l’ordre de l’Immaculée Conception, sont transmis à travers le genre épistolaire, à un Philipe IV troublé, qui était pleinement convaincu que l’état déplorable des royaumes était dû au châtiment de Dieu. La religieuse rappela au souverain que Dieu le punissait d’avoir mené, pendant deux décennies de son règne, une politique de grandeur et réputation. À cet égard, elle n’est pas la seule puisque d’autres visionnaires ont partagé ses approches. Avec certains d’entre eux, elle avait établi des relations étroites. Une analyse détaillée permet d’affirmer que sœur Marie a été la voix d’une faction courtisane qui avait instrumentalisé le message divin pour exhorter Philippe IV à réorienter la politique de la Monarchie hispanique.

Résumé : Dès leur apparition dans la société coloniale, les métis (mestizos) sont l’objet de toutes les peurs et suspicions du fait de la dualité de leurs origines. Une série de tares leur sont très vite associées, comme celles de la bâtardise et des mauvaises mœurs, contribuant ainsi à leur forger une image infâme. À partir des années 1570, apparaît également de façon récurrente l’accusation d’hérésie, comme argument ultime justifiant leur exclusion sociale. En s’appuyant sur l’ambiguïté qui sous-tendait leur condition, ces accusations tendirent à présenter les métis comme des hérétiques en puissance, officiellement catholiques, mais soupçonnés de pratiquer secrètement le culte indigène, contribuant à donner d’eux une image maléfique. Abstract : As soon as they appeared in colonial society, the mestizos have been the subjects of all kinds of fears and suspicions due to their mixed origins. They have been associated with many flaws such as bastardy or immoral behaviours, and thus suffered from a reputation of infamy built up at their expense. They also have then been repeatedly accused of heresy from the 1570’s, as the ultimate argument to legitimate their social exclusion. These accusations, based on the inherent ambiguity of their condition, tended to present the mestizos as potential heretics, officially catholics, but suspected of practicing secretly the indigenous cult, which contributed to give them a devilish or maleficent image. Resumen : En cuanto aparecieron en la sociedad colonial, los mestizos despertaron el temor y la sospecha de los españoles, por causa de su doble origen. Pronto, fueron asociados con una serie de lacras como la bastardía o las malas costumbres, forjándoles una reputación infamante. A partir de los años 1570, surgió también de manera recurrente la acusación de herejía, como máximo argumento para justificar su marginación social. Aquellas acusaciones, basadas en la imagen ambigua de los mestizos, tendían a presentarlos como heréticos potenciales, oficialmente católicos pero sospechados de practicar secretamente el culto indígena, contribuyendo a dar de ellos una imagen maléfica, e incluso diabólica.

Dans cet article, je me propose d’analyser la construction textuelle de l’ethos discursif de Catherine de Médicis à travers les prises de parole attribuées à ce personnage dans La Guisiade (1589) de Pierre Matthieu, hostile à Henri III. Je montrerai de façon plus spécifique comment les procédés rhétoriques mis en oeuvre dans cette tragédie de la fin du XVIe siècle informent l’élaboration de l’ethos de la reine mère dans les discours épidictiques de blâme qu’elle prononce.

Cet article s’intéresse à la construction de l’ethos, tout à la fois féminin et royal, du personnage éponyme dans la tragédie Laodamie, reine d’Épire de Catherine Bernard, créée en 1689 à la Comédie-Française, de même qu’à la tension générée par le conflit entre cet ethos et le pathos. Si ce pathos perturbe la « tranquillité » de la reine tout au long de l’action dramatique, celle-ci n’en parvient pas moins à le tenir en bride – mais au prix d’un immense effort – au profit de la raison, qui lui dicte de contrôler des passions qui entrent en contradiction avec les exigences de sa fonction.

Utiliser une scénographie construite par Velázquez et Le Brun trois cents ans plus tard est-il un choix politique fertile ? Le tricentenaire du traité des Pyrénées en 1959 est méconnu car il fut d’emblée oublié. Pourtant, cette célébration fastueuse fut conçue par les diplomates espagnols et français comme représentation totale d’un dégel entre les deux voisins à la fin d’une décennie où, à la faveur de la Guerre Froide, le régime franquiste rompt son isolement. D’où vient l’échec ? Après avoir cerné la résonance limitée de cet événement dans une première partie, le deuxième temps de l’analyse porte sur les préparatifs de cette représentation ex nihilo. Les leçons tirées par les décideurs dans les décennies suivantes sont étudiées dans la troisième partie. Au cœur de chaque axe, ce travail scrute l’articulation entre volonté de dégel bilatéral et représentation multivectorielle de cette volonté, vécue différemment par les organisateurs, les médias et l’opinion. Les principales sources utilisées sont les archives diplomatiques espagnoles et françaises. Histoire diplomatique, des arts et des représentations se côtoient ici.
