Let Jacques introduce his work himself: Along these fifteen days, I wish you may feel the pleasure to discover, appreciate, and maybe love Thomas More.

December 18, 2009 - Moreana vol.46, no 177-178 has just been released
The particular ambition of this Moreana issue, besides its usual harvest of diverse essays and book reviews, was to explore Night and Mysticism, a topic proposed to authors with two aims: on the one hand an assessment of More’s mysticism, a comparison with some contemporary mystics, and on the other, an exploration of the poetry of obscure nights. Over half a dozen authors have responded with captivating articles, to be discovered in this December 2009 issue. Other essays concern: Mary Bassett – More’s grand-daughter; Erasmus and Budé on the « merits of being obscure » ; or More’s conception of the Orient, the magical word which used to conjure up t>...

The Newspaper/Gazette 21 goes out at the same time as Moreana 177-178, specific issue on MYSTICISM and particularly 'international': most of the French authors write in English and a beautiful article in French is signed by Wilhelm Blum from Germany!...

Nov. 2009 - Amici at Noyon, Calvin's birthplace
The year 2009, which celebrated the 500th anniversary of John CALVIN’s birth, was the occasion of a great number of events, to which the Amici Thomae Mori were regularly invited. The latest such event took place successively in Lille, Amiens and Noyon from November 25 to 27, 2009. The general topic “Calvin and Humanism”, or the more particular “The Picard Calvinists in the 16th century”, allowed for excellent papers, among which some given by scholars belonging to our association:
- Marie-Christine Gomez-Géraud, a member of Moreana’s Scientific Committee, spoke about Calvin’s Treatise on Relics and recalled that Thomas More was the only humanist who defended this popular cult. - Guy Bédouelle, o.p., rector of Angers’ Université Catholique de l’Ouest, also a member of our Scientific Committee, gave a lecture on Lefèvre d’Etaples. - >...
