English summary: This analysis of some of Eliade’s innumerable writings, some of which are less known or unpublished in France, invites the reader to reconsider Eliade’s relationship with his own past, a recent topic of debate, and permits a deconstruction of his work through the traces he leaves of himself. Constructing a mythology of identity, Eliade found himself a voluntary prisoner of his own personal mythology, which in fact inspired the totality of his oeuvre. French text. French description: Partant du motif d’une figure divine controversee, on peut desormais poser un nouveau regard sur l’oeuvre et sur le trajet d’exception de Mircea Eliade, en decryptant les dissimulations successives d’une biographie qu’il a inlassablement faconnee, et qu’il avait concue comme un parcours initiatique. L’analyse d’une partie de ses innombrables ecrits, dont certains sont moins connus, voire inedits en France, tel son Journal portugais, invite a reconsiderer le rapport d’Eliade a son passe, tellement questionne de nos jours, et permet de deconstruire son oeuvre a travers ses propres traces. Heritier et faconneur d’une mythologie identitaire, il fut en fin de compte le prisonnier volontaire de sa propre mythologie personnelle, qui inspire en realite l’ensemble de son oeuvre. Les schemas eliadiens (occultation, initiation, mystification, metamorphoses, camouflages, exemplarite) s’appliquent en realite a son propre parcours, a ses convictions, a ses choix, a ses silences. Entre enjeux scientifiques et enjeux identitaires, Eliade est l’acteur, le temoin et la victime posthume de sa propre tragedie.
