Review - French Cet ouvrage invite historiens, poeticiens, specialistes d'histoire litteraire, comparatistes, philosophes, psychanalystes et anthropologues, a analyser un motif ancre dans l'histoire et codifie par la litterature : la representation sociale et litteraire de l'abandon d'enfant dans l'Europe de la Renaissance aux Lumieres. La pluridisciplinarite des approches devoile leurs convergences, leurs divergences et leurs points aveugles respectifs. La prise en compte du discours social au sens large renouvelle les lectures litteraires. Les etudes des schemas litteraires qui structurent le motif revelent la pregnance de ces modeles sur la maniere dont la societe formule, pense et imagine l'abandon et l'adoption.
