RÉFLEXIONS SUR LA LIBERTÉ ET MOUVEMENT DANS LES PREMIERS SIÈCLES CHRÉTIENS
REFLECTIONS ON FREEDOM AND MOVEMENT DURING THE FIRST CHRISTIAN CENTURIES

Summary/Abstract: Reflections on Freedom and Movement During the First Christian Centuries. Freedom and movement are two concepts that appear to have a shared destiny. Common sense tells us that freedom means being able to move freely and at will. Philosophers have long been interested in the concept of movement, as evidenced by Aristotle’s Physics.

However, over time, Early Christian authors, influenced by Stoics, have radically changed the ancient paradigm regarding freedom and movement.
