Les réparations du Ciel. Processions, oubli et éternisation des mémoires dans la France des premières guerres de Religion

This article is interested in the contradictory articulation, within the first Wars of Religion (around 1562-around 1574), of injunctions to forget, coming from the monarchy, and claims to remember, emanating from confessional communities, whether Catholic or Protestant. What are the ways in which religious groups try to inscribe their history and the rights that the past opens up on the territory? How do these socio-spatial memories combine with the obligation to forget the tragic events of the past, which is the horizon of all civil wars, and the political response to the need to live together, i.e. to rebuild community?
