I28-R145-13074_oai2025-11-17 Escalante, Pablo 2023-12-12 This article examines the permanence of the theologico-political doctrine of the king’s two bodies in the early French Revolution through the Constitution of 1791. This analysis unfolds in two parts. The first part presents a critique of the dominant interpretation in historiography of the principle of national sovereignty adopted in 1789, and posits in its place one that fits within the horizon of meaning shaped in the longue durée by the royalist tradition. The second part highlights the theologico-political nature of the Revolution and the symbolic operation carried out on the notion of sovereignty, in order to show the schemata of organization and representation belonging to the king’s two bodies doctrine that were kept in the Constitution of 1791. Este artículo examina la permanencia de la doctrina teológico-política de los dos cuerpos del rey en la Revolución francesa a través de la Constitución de 1791. Este análisis se desarrolla en dos partes. La primera parte ofrece una crítica a la interpretación republicana del principio de la soberanía nacional adoptado en 1789, y propone en su lugar una que se ajusta al horizonte de sentido de la monarquía. La segunda parte subraya la naturaleza teológico-política de la Revolución y el trabajo simbólico que se realizó sobre la noción de la soberanía, con la intención de resaltar los esquemas de organización y de representación propios de la doctrina de los dos cuerpos del rey que se mantuvieron en la Constitución de 1791. application/pdf https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/analesHAMM/article/view/13074 10.34096/ahamm.v57.2.13074 spa Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, Universidad de Buenos Aires https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/analesHAMM/article/view/13074/12315 Derechos de autor 2023 Anales de Historia Antigua, Medieval y Moderna Anales de Historia Antigua, Medieval y Moderna; Vol. 57 Núm. 2 (2023) 1853-1555 1514-9927 French Revolution Constitution of 1791 national sovereignty king’s two bodies political theology Revolución francesa Constitución de 1791 soberanía nacional dos cuerpos del rey teología política On the Permanence of the Theologico-Political: The French Revolution, the King’s Two Bodies Doctrine, and the Constitution of 1791 Sobre la permanencia de lo teológico-político: la Revolución francesa, la doctrina de los dos cuerpos del rey y la Constitución de 1791 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://repositoriouba.sisbi.uba.ar/gsdl/cgi-bin/library.cgi?a=d&c=moderna&d=13074_oai |
