This book provides a study of the manner in which the Roman
Catholic Church in France responded to successive revolutions
between 1789 and 1870 as well as to the cultural upheaval
associated with accelerating socio-economic change. It focuses on
the Church as an institution engaged in a dynamic process of
(re)Christianization and determined, as the only repository of the
true faith of Jesus Christ, to fortify belief , and to combat the
'Satanic' forces of moral corruption and revolutionary chaos and
create a 'counter society', the societe parfaite. Discussion of the
Church as an institution in crisis, of the recruitment, instruction
and mind-sets of its bishops, parish clergy, and the members of
religious orders, of its hierarchical structures and internal
discipline, and of the need to compensate for the losses suffered
during a period of revolutionary upheaval, provides the basis for
an exploration of its evolving doctrine(s) and sense of purpose;
for an assessment of the pastoral care provided to parish
communities; and of the leadership and moral qualities of the
clergy; before final consideration of the reception of the
religious message(s).
