execution de louis

[mariinette77]

Bonjour à tous!!
Voila je me permet de demander un peu d'aide, en effet en ce moment je fais des recherches sur l'éxécution de Louis XVI et sa dimension religieuse, je dois rendre un exposé.
J'ai deja trouvé quelques livres comme "la mort de Louis XVI" de A. Philomenko, "Louis XVI, Roi Martyr" de Paul Girault de Coursac, "L'eglise catholique et la Révolution française" de Latreille, ainsi que "Le Regicide et la Révolution Française" qui est une thése, cependant est ce que quelqu'un pourrait eventuellement me donner un ou deux livres de votre connaissance qui traite du sujet! Merci d'avance, vos sugestions sont les bienvenues[/i]

Allez sur Gallica, vous y trouverez à la suite des mémoires de Cléry celles de l'abbé Edgeworth qui accompagna Louis XVI au pied de l'échafaud.

The close association of Christianity with the late Bourbon monarchy's style of governance has often been interpreted as a burdensome legacy, which impacted greatly on the period preceding the French Revolution. In recent years, historians have referred to the ideological, juridical and intellectual assaults on the religious foundations of the French crown, throughout the eighteenth century, either as a process of ‘desacralization’ or as the religious origins of the French Revolution. This article, though inspired by this school of thought, takes a different approach by examining the less well-known ceremonial and ritual components of this form of kingship, with particular reference to the king's chapel. Louis XVI's ecclesiastical household was both the centre of royal patronage for the Gallican Church and the chief regulatory authority of the monarch's personal religious devotion. Its actions, transformation and fate during the Revolution are instructive in two ways. First, its survival during the first three years of the revolutionary troubles highlights its fundamental and constraining influence over the French monarchy. Secondly, the gradual, though determined, effort to undermine the pact between throne and altar that it represented exemplifies a lesser known aspect of the national deputies’ anticlerical agenda.
