Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book places you in the heart of the 17th-century Port-Royal monastery, a center of French Jansenism. Despite its closure, its long shadow reaches the present day, through the legacy of the remarkable Port-Royalists. Antoine Le Maître, a brilliant lawyer, renounced the world to follow Arnauld d'Andilly and his sister, Angà lique Arnauld, in their endeavors. This book follows Le Maître's journey into the spiritual life, alongside other esteemed intellectuals and theologians of his time. It explores the Jansenist doctrine of frequent communion, the Augustinus controversy, and the persecution of the Jansenists by the Catholic Church. Through the lens of primary sources, the reader witnesses the clash between intellectual freedom, religious authority, and Pascal's defense of Jansenism. Ultimately, this book is a tribute to the Port-Royalists and their unwavering commitment to their beliefs, inviting readers to reflect on the nature of faith, the search for truth, and the enduring power of ideas.
