Synopsis
Contributing Authors

D’Alembert a marque l’histoire de la mecanique rationnelle pour avoir enonce en 1743 un celebre principe general de la dynamique qu’on presente encore, dans les traites contemporains, sous le nom de principe de d’Alembert . Quelle signification le fameux theoreme possedait-il parmi les autres theses, oubliees aujourd’hui, du Traite de dynamique ? En se proposant de repondre a ces questions, cet ouvrage tente de restituer l’originalite d’une theorie du mouvement qui reste profondement marquee, en depit du triomphe que connait a l’epoque la physique newtonienne, par l’heritage du mecanisme cartesien. L’analyse de la dynamique dalembertienne donne l’occasion d’entrer dans les principaux debats, portant sur la realite des forces, sur la nature de la causalite ou sur la necessite des lois du mouvement, qui preoccupent alors des auteurs tels que Maupertuis, Euler ou Daniel Bernouilli. Aussi la lecture de d’Alembert apparait-elle, a travers cette etude, comme une voie d’acces privilegiee pour penetrer ce systeme complexe et encore peu connu que constitue la mecanique du XVIIIe siecle.
