About the Book

English summary: The life of Bernardino Ochino is a novel. The latter began in Sienna in 1542, when this son of a modest barber, who rose to the highest ranks of the Capuchin Order, fell under the suspicious eye of the Inquisition. Summoned to Rome where he was to be tried, Ochino escaped through the Alps, renounced his Catholic faith, took a wife and, under Calvin's guidance, became a pastor. Harassed once more, he then fled to England, where he became embroiled in the feuds between the King, the Pope and the bishops, so his asylum was short-lived. His wanderings through Europe - while the latter was being torn apart by religious conflicts - took him from England to Switzerland, Germany, and ultimately Poland, where he died rejected by his peers, and having lost everyone in his family. He was 76 years old. French description: Cet homme ferait pleurer les pierres, aurait dit Charles Quint venu l'ecouter a Naples. Admirable justice. Cet infame a ete frappe dans sa famille avant que son crime eut eclate aux yeux de tous . Sinistre oraison funebre signee de l'un des grands acteurs de la Reforme protestante au xvie siecle. Cet homme, cet infame, c'est Bernardino Ochino, fils d'un modeste barbier de Sienne. Entre ces deux phrases s'inscrit sa vie tourmentee de haut dignitaire de l'ordre des Capucins, adule de toute l'Italie de la Renaissance, protege des Grands.Mais voici que l'Inquisition le suspecte de propos juges heretiques. Alors il fuit et se separe de l'Eglise de Rome. Quel sera le destin de cet homme devenu renegat en ces temps ou se dechirent l'Eglise, lesEtats, les familles, les ames? Quelle sera son evolution spirituelle alors que proliferent les sectes religieuses? Pourquoi ira-t-il, vieillard solitaire, chasse de partout, mourir dans un village de Moravie qu'on appelle Austerlitz? C'est ce que revele ce livre qui retrace la fuite eternelle d'Ochino a travers l'Europe ensanglantee par les luttes religieuses, echappant aux poursuites lancees contre lui, affrontant les dangers de la route et de la mer. L'evocation des paysages traverses autant que les portraits traces de quelques-uns des grands acteurs de la Reforme, donnent vie aux querelles peu connues qui opposerent entre eux les tenants de la nouvelle religion. Ecrit dans une langue alerte, ce livre, ou l'invention romanesque s'allie constamment a la realite historique, devoile la dramatique evolution psychologique d'un homme que son intransigeante exigence de fidelite a soi-meme a conduit a l'opprobre et a l'oubli. Un vrai roman d'aventures.
