Description
Summary:"I was at the seminary of a sadness which, at 16 years old, has very few examples." The famous admission of Charles Maurice de Talleyrand-Perigord, returning on the years when his family forced him to enter the orders, A special resonance in reading the thousands of letters found in the archives of the Pope's legate, Cardinal Caprara, sent to France under the Consulate to negotiate the "reconciliation" of the priests married during the Revolution. Who were ere these revolutionary men convinced or, on the contrary, victims of the "religious terror", who from 1791 chose to celebrate their wedding and renounce their vows? Who were their wives? How and what did they live, once their union was formalized? Why, above all, once civil peace was restored, did the majority of them refuse to return to the bosom of the Church? A striking psychological, political and social analysis of one of the most unknown phenomena in the cultural history of the French Revolution.--Translation of page 4 of cover by Decitre: https://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=fr&u=https://www.decitre.fr/livres/noces-revolutionnaires-9782363581532.html&prev=search
