MALEBRANCHE The figure of Homo saecularis didn’t have to wait for the emergence of paleoanthropologists, nor for the countless conferences on secularization: he had already been described in the twelfth century by a Benedictine monk, Peter of Celle: “From the window of quiet and contemplation, let us survey how the voluble wheel of secular life rolls around and then we shall be able to grasp the great inconstancy with which secular conscience (saecularis conscientia) spins around.
