Note publique d'information : La jaquette du livre indique : "Here, in a grand narrative spanning 1,800 years of
European history, a distinguished political philosopher firmly rejects Western liberalism's
usual account of itself: its emergence in opposition to religion in the early modern
era. Larry Siedentop argues instead that liberal thought is, in its underlying assumptions,
the offspring of the church. Beginning with a moral revolution in the first centuries
CE, when notions about equality and human agency were first formulated by St. Paul,
Siedentop follows these concepts in Christianity from Augustine to the philosophers
and canon lawyers of the fourteenth and early fifteenth centuries, and ends with their
reemergence in secularism - another of Christianity's gifts to the West."
