Dieu nest pas un assureur : Oeuvre 1. Anthropologie et psychanalyse (SPIRITUALITE) (French Edition)

---

However, although a large section of RB is devoted to liturgical arrangements chapters 8 to 20 , the only phrase in that section which suggests the motif of work-as-speech appears in the title of chapter 16 qualiter divina opera per diem agantur. This may be because RB integrates early and later traditions in relation to the liturgy. Liturgical speech in RB amounts to a meditative recitation of the psalms and canticles, and listening to the bible and patristic commentaries being read aloud. Here Benedict repeats earlier monastic practice in which the repetition and committing of biblical texts to memory flowed over from formal psalmody to create a climate of continual, almost unconscious, reflection.

The work opus is not what the monk does in the liturgy reciting the psalms but what is done in the monk by God as he opens his mind attentively to the text RB A process of which he is largely unaware because it is unconscious. Meditation [23] is perhaps the key concept here for it links psalmody— opus Dei as speech—with private reading legere as opposed to liturgical reading of scripture RB Prol.

This idea was inherited from Stoicism Roques where the exercise of reading was seen to provide nourishment for meditation because of the unique change in perspective and transformation in thinking that reading can bring about Hadot Quite how Lacan thought the IPA had come to resemble a church is hard to know except that he thought it dominated by a hierarchy of important people Evans However, in RB although the monastery is described as a school schola this is not in contradistinction to the local church.

On the contrary, the two figures, church and school, run parallel with one another specifically in relation to the master-disciple dialectic. For Benedict the abbot, as the bishop, is described as a shepherd Latin, pastor. Both bring the institutions of church and monastery to life. He considers it to be of the essence of the subject and thus at the centre of psychoanalytic treatment. Here the analysand is brought to recognise and articulate his desire which is entirely sexual and distinct from his demands Lacan In RB desire desiderium is situated at the core of the subject and thus it is considered key in monastic life which is seen as a turning conversatio of the passions towards the divine and the good of others.

Yet this is not limited to specifically erotic desires desideria carnis. Like Lacan, Heidegger was steeped in Catholicism from his youth. But more than that it was a Catholicism impregnated with Benedictine culture. The monks of the nearby Abbey of Beuron had helped build the temporary church of St Martin in Messkirch, where Heidegger was baptised. His father was the sexton in Messkirch and the young Heidegger was an altar boy and bell ringer. The simple round of rural life, as his biographer vividly recounts, marked as it was by the seasons and ecclesiastical feasts, itself bares a strong resemblance to the closed monastic world with its repetitive, cyclical liturgical year and daily horarium.

The most beautiful time was Christmas.

As a child Heidegger was taught Latin, free of charge, by the parish priest of Messkirch and with the help of a grant he went to the junior seminary at Constance, then to the seminary in Freiburg and finally studied theology at Freiburg University. He became a Jesuit novice in at Tisis near Feldkirch in Austria but after a couple of years dropped out due to poor health Safranski Later as a student the young Heidegger would sometimes spend a few weeks in a monastic cell at Beuron and after the war, between and , when he was under a teaching ban, Beuron was the only place he could be seen in public.

Heidegger recalls how impressed he was in by the monastic liturgy of the hours at Beuron, specifically by compline, the last service of the day Storck Compline, in the Benedictine rite, was composed of the recitation of psalms 4, 90 and followed by a hymn— Te lucis ante terminum —a short reading Jeremiah The psalmody was preceded by a blessing, the reading of 1 Peter 5: Compline, unlike the other liturgical hours, was the same every night and was sung by heart in the dark.

It is easy to see why it would have made a profound impression on Heidegger. The monastic church, swathed in darkness with just a couple of candles burning on the high altar at some distance from the choir, the sound of the monks singing to Gregorian chant the Latin verses. Heidegger described the experience as deeply moving Schaber That man each day walks out into the night is a banality for present-day man… Compline still contains the mythical and metaphysical primeval power of night, which we have to pierce continually in order truly to exist.

The image here is one of running currite so as to avoid being enveloped by the darkness of death ne tenebrae mortis vos comprehendant RB Prol. He links this with the notions of reticence a kind of silence and lack, which he describes as a great stillness in which is found the possibility of experiencing the presence of the divine Vallega-Nau Lacan distinguished different forms of lack of object according the realms of the real, symbolic and imaginary.

The most significant form corresponding to castration. For Lacan the aim of psychoanalysis is to articulate true or full speech parole pleine. Full speech is not saying the whole truth but it is saying as much as one knows of the truth of oneself at the time of speaking. There may at any time be as yet unknown truths lurking out of reach within oneself. The antithesis of full speech is empty speech parole vide.

L'anthropologie theologique a la lumiere de la psychanalyse

This is not the same as lying but amounts to speech from the ego, where the subject is alienated from his desire. This kind of reticence or moderation in speech is connected to authentic being. Considerable emphasis is placed in RB on the dialectic of the word verbum , eloquium , sermo and silence taciturnitas , silentio. Paradoxically, silence as a limiting of speech is orientated towards listening audire to the word spoken in scripture and in the teaching of the abbot. But verbum also recalls the identification of the Logos with Jesus of Nazareth John 1: Within speech eloquia , responsum RB distinguishes between the divine word and vain words verba vana.

Vacuous chatter murmurio is denounced in RB cf. But as part of the dialectic of speech and silence in RB, the condemnation of a lack of reticence in speech, is rooted in the pagan philosophical tradition. Ancient authors consistently condemn those with undisciplined speech adoleschia ; lalia Schnayder This was quickly absorbed into the lexicon of the early church.
