Excerpt from La Bible dans Racine
Il est naturel que l'église n'ait pas voulu livrer aue Chiens la nourriture Spirituelle de ses enfants, surtout a Une époque où l'esprit sectaire abritait, sous l'autorité de la Bible. Ses pires extravagances.' De là, ces sages précau tions que Fénelon a si bien formulées, dans sa lettre à l'évêque d'arras: Ma pensée, dit - il, est qu'il ne faut jamais séparer ces deux maximes de l'église; l'une est de ne donner l'écriture qu'à ceux qui sont déjà bien préparés a la lire avec fruit, l'autre est de travailler Sans relâche a y préparer le plus grand nombre possible de fidèles. On sait qu'au XVII siècle, grâce a une forte instruction re ligieuse, la première de ces deux catégories comprenait la presque totalité des classes dirigeantes. La Bible embras sait et pénétrait la vie morale tout ent1er'e de l'aristocra tie et de la bourgeoisie.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the deep connections between Racine's two renowned tragedies and the foundational religion of Judaism. Racine, a devout Catholic, drew inspiration from the monotheistic tradition of the Jews, a religion he saw as emphasizing the severe power of a supreme God. The author delves into Racine's depiction of the terrible and awe-inspiring aspects of the Jewish God, examining how this portrayal shaped the actions and motivations of the characters in these plays. While the book acknowledges the influence of modern scholarship in understanding the evolution of Jewish monotheism, it focuses on the specific interpretation of the religion as presented in Racine's works. Through a detailed analysis of the plays, the author reveals the thematic depth of Racine's exploration of religious themes, highlighting the significance of his insights into the power and complexity of the Jewish faith.
