The chapters follow the chronological order of history, starting with Presocratics and culminating in Giovanni Pico della Mirandola, the Humanist movement and the Renaissance. It is examined what freedom and free will meant in each time period and the unrest brought by that thinker even before the philosophers of ancient Greece. As the topic evolves throughout history it seems to deconstruct the social pyramid of Plato, suggesting greater flexibility and easy transit among classes. This leads man to a sense of freedom never experienced before. The bourgeois catalyze this movement in Humanism, funding philosophers devoted to the subject, like Giovanni Pico della Mirandola. In his Oration, Mirandola introduces a unique vision of the dignity, treating it as something immanent to man, a divine gift that could not be disrupted even by God. His thinking promotes the development of mercantilism and encourages commercial and maritime practices whose interesting results pleased the bourgeoisie and assured them they were on the right path / Esta pesquisa teve como escopo percorrer a linha do tempo sob o enfoque histórico-filosófico acerca da dignidade do homem. Os capítulos seguem a ordem cronológica da história, iniciando nos pré-socráticos e culminando em Giovanni Pico della Mirandola, no movimento Humanista e no Renascimento. Examina-se o que significou a liberdade e o livre-arbítrio em cada período e a perturbação trazida por ele antes mesmo dos filósofos da Grécia antiga. A evolução do tema no transcorrer na história parece desconstruir a pirâmide social de Platão, sugerindo uma maior flexibilidade e facilidade no tramitar entre as classes desta pirâmide, impingindo no homem uma sensação de liberdade nunca antes experimentada. Os burgueses catalisam este movimento no Humanismo, financiando filósofos dedicados ao assunto como Giovanni Pico della Mirandola que, em sua Oratio traz uma visão inédita acerca da dignidade, tratando-a como algo imanente ao homem, um dom divino que não poderia ser perturbado nem mesmo por Deus. Seu pensamento facilita o desenvolvimento do mercantilismo e incentiva práticas comerciais e marítimas cujos resultados interessantes à burguesia trouxeram a certeza de ser esse o caminho correto

Le champ disciplinaire dans lequel s’inscrit cette recherche est la théologie patristique, et plus précisément la thèse étudie la pensée anthropologique spirituelle et théologique de saint Jean Cassien, telle qu’elle ressort de ses deux ouvrages spirituels, les Institutions cénobitiques et les Conférences. Cela conduit à s'interroger sur la place qu’occupe Cassien par rapport à la tradition monastique orientale antérieure, ainsi que sur l’influence de ses deux ouvrages sur la tradition monastique occidentale postérieure. Notre recherche a pour ambition de comprendre et d’expliquer, à partir d’une lecture analytique approfondie des textes, le fil conducteur de la vision cassinienne de la progression spirituelle de l’homme. Nous esquissons celle-ci en quatre grandes étapes : homo exterior – puritas cordis – homo interior – ignita oratio (contemplatio). Notre insistance dans l’analyse sur les diverses notions du vocabulaire spirituel cassinien vise à mettre en évidence un des aspects originaux de cet auteur pour toute la littérature monastique, à savoir la conversion du vocabulaire ascétique et monastique grec issu de la tradition égyptienne et par là la création et le développement d'une langue spirituelle latine. / The disciplinary field in which this research is conducted is patristic theology. More precisely, the thesis studies the theological and spiritual-anthropological thought of Saint John Cassian, as it emerges from his two spiritual works, Institutes of the Coenobia and Conferences. This leads us to wonder about Cassian's place in relation to the earlier Eastern monastic tradition, as well as about his two works influence on the later western monastic tradition. Our research aims to understand and explain, from an in-depth analytical reading of the texts, the thread of Cassian's vision of the spiritual progression of man. We sketch it in four main stages: homo exterior - puritas cordis - homo interior - ignita oratio (contemplatio). Our insistence in the analysis of the various notions of Cassian's spiritual vocabulary aims to highlight one of the original aspects of this author for all monastic literature, namely the conversion of the Greek ascetic and monastic vocabulary, derived from the Egyptian tradition, and thereby the creation and development of a Latin spiritual language.
