Abstract EN:
Ms 2894 of the riccardiana library of florence, of which we offer here the critical edition, is a "zibaldone" of devotional texts, written by several people in a "mercantesca" hand during the second half of fifteenth century. The central part of the manuscript consists of "laudi", of notes taken during sermons and of "exempla". After having situated the production of the collection in a confraternal environment - probably that of the florentine laymen of several structures designated to assure religious instruction cordering and production of books, teaching reading skills, communal writing exercises, exchange of books, organisations of series of sermons during lent). Then the study examines several questions that are brought up by the different literary genres and texts found in the manuscript : the relation between preaching and the reception of sermons, the cross-over of "exempla" from preaching to personal reading. We finally reach the conclusion that "confraternal religion" can be defined as the product of a process of "osmosis". . .
Abstract FR:
Le ms. 2894 de la bibliotheque riccardians de florence, dont on propose ici l'edition, est un "zibaldone" de textes de devotion, redige par plusieurs personnes, dans une ecriture marchande, apres le milieu du xve s. Le noyau du ms. Est constitue par des "laudi", des notes prises lors de sermons et des "exempla". Apres avoir situe la confection du recueil dans un milieu confraternel, probablement la confrerie florentine des "laudesi" de san zanobi, l'etude porte sur la mise en place par les laics, dans la florence du quattrocento, de structures destinees a assurer l' "instruction religieuse" (commandes et confection de livres, apprentissage de la lecture, pratique d'ecriture menees en commun, pret de livres, organization de cycles de preches pendant le careme). Differentes questions, soulevees par les genres litteraires et les textes figurant dans le ms. , sont ensuite examinees: rapports entre predication et reception, passage des "exempla" de la predication a la lecture. . . On aboutit a la conclusion d'une "religion confraternelle" faite d'"osmose" entre sacre et profane, entre le "religieux" et le "civique".
