dc.description.abstractThe analysis of the novels of Francois Mauriac reveal the author's Jansenist conception of religion. In this thesis of a brief study of seventeenth century jansenism is made in order to show the background of religious convictions with which Mauriac worked and the reason why his outlook is so pessimistic. He sees man as deprived of free will, predestined either to good or to evil, as well as determined by his environment. His rigoristic theological and psychological doctrines have led him to fatalism.en_US
