This thesis examines the hypotheses that modern historians have developed about the religion of the emperor Constantine I. Its aim is to elucidate the different methodologies historians have employed to interpret the contemporary evidence, which has often led to the development of conflicting hypotheses. The first chapter will discuss interpretations of the contemporary evidence that has led Barnes, Drake, and Bardill to hypothesize that Constantine converted to Christianity after the Battle of the Milvian Bridge. This chapter will primarily discuss possible familial and political influences and the narratives of Eusebius and Lactantius in order to elucidate the circumstances surrounding Constantine’s conversion. Then Constantine’s military insignia and his possible sacrifice after battle will be discussed in order to demonstrate any alterations in his religious mentality. The second chapter will examine the different interpretations of Constantine’s religious policy and legislation in order to clarify why Barnes proposes that Constantine became intolerant of religious diversity after his conversion, while Drake, Potter, and Bardill believe that he had remained as tolerant as he had been as a pagan. The third chapter will present the interpretations of the contemporary evidence that has led Burckhardt and Kee to assert that Constantine never converted to Christianity. This thesis will demonstrate that the vague and sometimes contradictory contemporary evidence supports multiple and even competing hypotheses. For this reason, there can be no “correct” answer about the religion of Constantine.

Ce mémoire traite du dispositif d’orientation scolaire et professionnelle (DOSP)1 destiné à l’accompagnement des élèves redoublants à l’examen du baccalauréat2 (BAC) de la ville de Constantine en Algérie. De manière encore précise, la présente recherche examine les inégalités que ce dispositif peut générer auprès de cette population vulnérable en raison de son échec au baccalauréat. Cet état de vulnérabilité s’exprime sous plusieurs aspects : la scolarité des parents, la situation socio-économique de la famille ainsi que le faible niveau de la performance scolaire. Ces derniers engendrent des injustices durant la phase de transition du secondaire vers l’université (Picard, Pilote, Turcotte, Goastellec, et Olympio, 2015, p.4). Ainsi, l’approche par les capabilités (AC) d’Amartya Sen3 (1992, 1993) a été retenue dans le cadre de cette présente étude afin d’identifier les facteurs de conversion d’ordre personnel, social et environnemental apte ou inapte à soutenir l’élève redoublant lors de son passage vers l’université pour entreprendre le projet d’étude auquel il aspire le plus. Pour rencontrer notre objectif, la recherche a été subdivisée en trois sous objectifs : • Identifier les ressources offertes par le DOSP algérien aux élèves redoublants au (BAC) pour voir s’il crée ou non des espaces d’options réalistes (opportunités) susceptibles de leur donner la liberté réelle de construire le choix qu’ils valorisent vraiment en matière de choix d’orientation afin de réussir leur transition vers le supérieur. • Discerner la relation des élèves redoublants avec les conseillers en orientation scolaire et professionnelle pour déterminer dans quelle mesure leurs interactions pourraient constituer des facteurs de conversion aidant ou entravant leur passage au cycle d’études supérieur. • Distinguer les facteurs de conversion d’ordre personnel et social favorisant ou balisant la transition au cycle supérieur des redoublants au BAC. Afin d’atteindre les trois objectifs fixés, deux échantillons (Aet B) ont pris part à cette étude de type qualitatif : l’échantillon A est composé de neuf (N=4) conseillères (femmes) en OSP affiliées aux trois centres d’OSP de la ville de Constantine. L’échantillon B est constitué de neuf (N=09) élèves redoublants au BAC, dont (N=4) filles et (N=5) garçons Les résultats démontrent l’existence d’un dispositif d’orientation scolaire et professionnelle fragile notamment à l’égard des redoublants au bac qui n’offre pas aux élèves redoublants au BAC les ressources nécessaires et capabilisantes afin d’augmenter leur chance de réussir leurs transitions vers le supérieur et entreprendre un projet valorisé. Mots clefs : Dispositif d’orientation scolaire et professionnelle, transition, redoublement au baccalauréat, justice sociale, approche par les capabilités (AC) Amartya Sen, facteurs de conversions (individuel, social et environnemental). / This thesis deals with educational and professional counselling system (EPCS) dedicated to support students who failed the Baccalaureate examination (BAC) of the city of Constantine, Algeria, and the inequalities it can cause for them. This student population is identified as vulnerable because of their labelling "failure at the BAC" and as a population unequally valued in its orientation course at the time of its transition to higher education (Picard et al., 2015, p. 4). Their state of vulnerability is expressed in many ways, including those related to parents' schooling, the socio-economic situation of the family, and lack of academic performance, which then generates inequalities during the transition to university (Picardet al., 2015). The Capability Approach (CA) of Amartya Sen (1992, 1993) was subsequently selected as part of this study. Its goal is to identify conversion factors that may support the student who has to retake the BAC exam during his transition to university and his choice of a study project to which he aspires the most. In other words, it identifies personal, social and environmental factors that may or may not be capacitating during the transition phase from high school to higher education. The first specific objective of the research is to identify the resources offered by the Algerian Educational and Professional Counselling System (AEPCS) to students who fail on the Baccalaureate Exam (BAC) depending on whether or not they create realistic options (opportunities) predisposed to offer them a real freedom to build a valued choice in terms of orientation and discipline choice in order to successfully transition to higher education. The second objective is to discern the relationship between students who fail the exam with Educational and Professional counselors (EPC) support to determine the degree to which their interactions could be contributing factors to helping or obstructing their transition to higher education. Finally, the third objective attempts to distinguish the personal and social conversion factors supporting or patterning the transition to the higher cycle of students who fail at the BAC exam. To achieve these three objectives, two samples took part in this qualitative study: nine (N = 09) students who fail at the BAC, of which (N = 4) girls and (N = 5) boys, and four (N = 4) EPC women advisers affiliated to three EPC centres in the city of Constantine. The structured results suggest gaps in the relevance of the government services offered in terms of academic guidance and counselling for high school students and also simply administrative management of students' orientation files without taking into account their real aspirations and their skills related to their self-management skills. Keywords: Educational and vocational guidance system, transition, BAC level failure, social justice, capabilities approach (CA) Amartya Sen, conversion factors (individual, social and environmental).

The central concept in this thesis is the Encaenia, particularly the Jerusalem Encaenia of the Martyrium Basilica and the anniversary feast of the same name, but also other, lesser known, inaugurations of churches which occurred in the fourth century. The thesis commences with a review of the recent scholarship on early Christian buildings, the Holy Land, and the Jerusalem Encaenia feast. Chapter two discusses the appearance of "εγκαίυια" in the Septuagint and early Christian literature before considering the first documented occasion of an encaenia feast, the inauguration of the basilica in Tyre. Chapter three is a detailed study of Constantine’s 'New Jerusalem' from the finding of the Cross to the inauguration of the Martyrium basilica in 335. A distinction is drawn between the work of Constantine and the interpretation of Eusebius. The subsequent chapter draws attention to the growth and uniform pattern of imperial involvement in the inauguration of churches under Constantius, paying particular attention to the alleged Encaenia of an Alexandrian basilica by Athanasius without imperial consent. The study of the Jerusalem Encaenia, the anniversary of the Martyrium inauguration, commences in chapter five with an analysis of the feast m the Journal of Egeria and the brief account recorded by Sozomen. Both writers portray the Encaenia as a pilgrim feast. Chapter six examines the liturgical content of the feast reconstructed from the earliest Jerusalem lectionaries and calendar. The theology of the feast is discerned from the biblical texts prescribed for the liturgy. Many of the observations made in previous chapters are drawn together in chapter eight which proposes the Encaenia as a Christian interpretation of the Jewish feast of Tabernacles. The conclusion to the thesis discusses the prominence of the Jerusalem Encaenia in the liturgical calendar, and locates the rite and feast of the Encaenia within the wider context of the dedication of churches in the east and western liturgy. Further avenues of research are outlined regarding the rites and surviving homilies for the dedication of a church.
