Synopsis

Reflection on the nature of absolute power has engendered much debate in Latin philosophy and literature, from Antiquity to the Renaissance. The diachronic analysis undertaken in this collective work demonstrates the permanence, and potential, of inquiries into the exercise and legitimacy of power.

Review - French De l'Antiquite a la Renaissance, la reflexion sur le pouvoir absolu a suscite de nombreux debats dans la philosophie et la litterature latines. L'analyse diachronique des concepts de tyrannie et de principat, proposee dans cet ouvrage collectif, en se fondant sur l'etude de textes d'inspirations et de formes diverses, met en lumiere les constantes et les divergences que souleve la question de l'exercice du pouvoir et de sa legitimite. L'heritage antique est commente et integre dans l'elaboration d'un ideal de gouvernance qui doit cependant composer avec les doctrines religieuses et les conflits contemporains. Le present volume temoigne de la fecondite d'une reflexion qui ne cesse de se renouveler tout au long des dix-sept siecles parcourus.
