English summary: In praise of nothing? Why not? Nothing is the name that seats every thing, leaving intact the fog of indecision. It is the name that fits everything, when the universe becomes light from inconsistence, with no reason for being, rather than not being. It is the name that suits God when He wishes to be gracious, and not necessary. Nothing also fits man, except that we call him no one. In the kingdom of nothing, all authority is light, all acts are innocent. French description: Un eloge du rien, pourquoi pas? Rien c’est le nom qui sied a toute chose, la laissant a son indecision, encore nimbee de peut-etre; rien c’est le nom qui sied a l’ensemble des choses, quand l’univers se fait leger a force d’inconsistance, n’ayant aucune raison d’etre plutot que de n’etre pas; rien c’est le nom qui sied a Dieu, quand il se veut gracieux et non pas necessaire; c’est aussi le nom qui sied a l’homme, mais alors on l’appelle personne. Bref, c’est le nom qui ne donne ni n’ote quoi que ce soit, appellation de nulle imputation, de nulle attribution, qui laisse etre ou ne pas etre ce qu’elle denomme, sans le moindre parti pris ni la moindre mise en cause. Au royaume du rien toute autorite est legere, toute action innocente.
