Résumé 0

During the wars of religions in France, novelty is under attack. Launched by the Catholics against the Protestant Reformation, the accusation of novelty is also reversible as popish Rome had little to do with the primitive Church of the apostles. It is this idea which the Mappe-Monde Nouvelle Papistique, a product of Calvinistic propaganda published in 1567 in Geneva, endeavours to make. In this allegorical map of vast dimensions, Rome and its walls are inscribed inside the devil’s mouth. In place of this infernal New World, which is a perversion of the world created by God, a new world in another sense will rise at the end of time, i.e. a world renewed or rather restored to its pristine State before it became disfigured by sin. It is such an apocalyptic announcement which Agrippa d’Aubigné’s Tragiques are prophesying.
