Commutative Algebra, chapter II, § 4. Spectra of rings and supports of modules

For the prime spectrum X=Spec⁡(A)X = \operatorname{Spec}(A) of a ring AA to be connected, it is necessary and sufficient that AA contain no idempotents other than 00 and 11.

To say that XX is not connected means that there exists in XX a set which is open and closed and distinct from ∅\varnothing and XX.

Bourbaki puts the proof directly after the statement, so what is above is the statement and its proof together.
