    De l’hétérodoxie à l’orthodoxie : les espaces religieux de George Keith by Louisiane Ferlier

    Published 2013-03-01
    “…This paper examines his own tormented spiritual travel, showing the superposition of his religious mobility (from Quakerism to Anglicanism) to his geographical mobility (from Britain to the American colonies and back), to which is added his intellectual mobility, which brought him into the circles of influential thinkers such as William Penn, Henry More or Gilbert Burnet. Keith, a marginal figure, therefore exemplifies the complexity of the British world which underwent, at the turn of the seventeenth century, a spatial redefinition due to its expansion in the New World and a reshaping of its religious landscape from the centre to the margins.…”

    Les harmonies de l'espace et les déchirures du temps, chez Voltaire entre 1734 et 1769 by Jacques Wagner

    Published 2013-07-01
    “…He does not falter to evoke the possibility of making the Golden Age happen on earth thanks to the example of William Penn. Yet this task of reconstructing an intellectual landscape which declining classicism had wrecked with its Augustinian and Jansenist pessimism, came up against concrete realities which troubled Voltaire, especially in 1715 – the earthquake in Lisbon – to the point when he gave up all recourse to optimistic doctrines, as shows his article "Bien (tout est bien)" (Good [all is good]) in his Dictionnaire philosophique. …”
