Dans le discours En l’honneur de Rome, l’orateur grec Aelius Aristide pose un regard perspicace et subtil sur l’Empire romain a son apogee (144 apres J.-C.). Il loue l’efficacite politique et militaire des autorites romaines, tout en faisant valoir les droits des sujets grecs, grace a un riche appareil de references culturelles qui se superpose et se combine a l’analyse du present historique. Cet ouvrage, dont l’importance est reconnue, jette ainsi un eclairage interessant sur l’histoire de l’Empire romain, sur la vision grecque de Rome et sur les fonctions de l’eloquence epidictique dans la vie politique de l’Antiquite. Cependant, le texte grec n’etait plus imprime en France depuis 1619 et la derniere edition critique, publiee a Berlin, remontait a 1898. Dans la presente edition, la mise en uvre des methodes et des instruments actuels de la recherche permet d’offrir un texte nouveau et plus sur. La traduction cherche a rendre la qualite litteraire du discours ainsi que les significations complexes et, pour une part, obliques qu’il renferme. Un commentaire continu explicite l’interpretation historique, rhetorique et philologique.
