Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating and often overlooked history of Jansenism, a theological movement within the Catholic Church that arose in the 17th century and challenged the dominant Jesuit interpretations of Augustine's teachings. The author explores the origins of Jansenism, tracing its roots back to the writings of St. Augustine, and highlighting the pivotal role of Cornelius Jansenius and Jean Baptiste du Vergier de Hauranne, better known as St. Cyran. The book vividly chronicles the conflict between Jansenists and Jesuits, showcasing the latter's relentless efforts to suppress the former's influence. It sheds light on the significant role played by the nuns of Port Royal, particularly the remarkable MÃÂ re Angelique, who reformed their abbey and embraced the Jansenist teachings. The author meticulously details the complex theological debates surrounding the concept of grace, free will, and predestination, as well as the political machinations that led to the persecution and eventual suppression of Jansenism. This book offers a compelling and nuanced account of a pivotal chapter in Catholic history, revealing the enduring power of theological ideas and the complexities of navigating religious authority.
