- Abstract
This article focuses on the years immediately following the introduction of the bull Unigenitus (1713), which condemned 101 propositions extracted from Quesnel's Réflexions morales. At that time, ultramontanist principles were gaining more and more strength at the Theology Faculty of Louvain. On 8 July 1715, the Faculty accepted and submitted itself to Unigenitus for the first time. The Faculty again accepted the bull in 1718 and 1719. The origins of these declarations of obedience to the Holy See are the focus of study here. The research presented highlights the intricacies and the high public profile of academic and ecclesiastical politics in the confessional age.
