Vincent de Paul, Biography, Ristretto cronologico, Latin compendiumRésumé
Cette étude examine trois ouvrages biographiques peu connus sur saint Vincent de Paul, écrits entre la biographie fondatrice de Louis Abelly (1664) et l'ouvrage plus connu de Pierre Collet (1748). Ces textes anciens étaient étroitement liés aux processus de béatification et de canonisation du saint et reflètent la dévotion croissante pour Vincent au cours du XVIIIe siècle. Le premier est un résumé officiel publié par le Saint-Siège en 1709, qui offre un récit structuré de la vie, des vertus et des miracles de Vincent, basé sur des témoignages. Le deuxième est le Ristretto cronologico (1729) de Bernardo della Torre, une vie de Vincent classée par ordre chronologique, qui se distingue par des détails qui ne figurent pas dans l'ouvrage d'Abelly. Le troisième, également daté de 1729, est l'œuvre de Gilbert Noiret et suit de près le format de Della Torre. Un compendium en latin publié en 1737 par la Sacrée Congrégation des Rites complète la collection. Ces textes fournissent des informations précieuses sur l'évolution de l'image de Vincent et les fondements de la « légende vincentienne ».
