L'élection des évêques dans l'église latine au premier millénaire
Résumé
--
In the aftermath of the Vatican II Council, which privileged the notion of people of God, the participation of secular members in the Church's responsibilities and decisions became a reality. In many dioceses, in Europe and in North and South America, Christians, ordained or not, wished to be involved in the choice of their bishop. Some even went so far as to demand the restoration of their election by the local Church, as was the practice in the times of the Fathers. Such an aspiration had to be well-founded, for it raised many questions. Firstly, what was the election in those first centuries of Christianity really like? Was it substantial enough to serve as a basis for a true tradition? Or did it in fact co-exist with other modes of designation, in which case it may only represent an example of archaism? Or, on the contrary, was it soundly rooted in the life of the Church to such an extent that its restoration would be justifiable? To answer these questions, this book explores the practice and the legislation of Latin Churches during the first millennium. The result is truly astonishing.
