Abstract :
[en] This paper suggest to come back on an aspect of the history of the tradition of the De fide with a reflection on the reception and usage of this Liber manualis by both the lay and ecclesiastical elite of the 9th and 10th century. It will mention successively some evidence of the influence of this treatise into the imperial politics, the preachers’ activities, the lay moral as well as into the diplomatic practices. Rather than a sound demonstration, it will present a collection of scattered notes.
