Pascal, poète des espaces
L’article de Richard Parish tend à saisir l’« essentiel du statut poétique de certains fragments des Pensées ». Après avoir recherché des critères de poéticité dans les propositions de Paul Valéry, Paul Claudel et Gabriel Brunet publiées à l’occasion du tricentenaire de 1923, il étudie le « manuscrit du Recueil original » à la lumière de l’un de ceux que Claudel met en lumière : « Une idée isolée par du blanc [...] une sonorité intelligible et pe…

Blaise Pascal
1It was also, selfevidently, to this truncated and partisan anthology that writers in the eighteenth century referred when they took issue with or (more rarely) drew inspiration from the arguments which are, or appear to be, the cornerstones of the whole project.Another no less dogmatically inspired historical document followed in 1776.
Le Père Étienne Bauny, SJ
La postérité du Père Bauny se limite pour l'essentiel au statut de celui que Pascal, ou plutôt son porte-parole Louis de Montalte, a combattu dans les Lettres provinciales , et qu'il est parvenu à couvrir de ridicule et d'opprobre. Pourtant la Somme des péchés , qui se situe dans la longue tradition des manuels à l'usage des confesseurs, se trouve considérablement déformée par le traitement du polémiste. Dans cet article nous cherchons tant soit …
How (and why) not to take Molière too seriously
The difficulty no doubt arises in part from Molière himself. If a writer of comedies writes in addition about the nature and purpose of comedy, we are likely to attend to what he says; and Molière does this both in a range of liminary pieces and, most engagingly, in two metatheatrical plays, La Critique de L'École des femmes and L'Impromptu de Versailles . The status of utterance in the two types of text is clearly subtly different, and it should…
Le Chant de la grâce
By Tony Gheeraert. (Lumière classique, 47). Paris, Champion, 2003. 622 pp. Hb€95.00. This compelling study takes a single erroneous preconception and stands it on its head, showing not only how a certain accommodation of poetry and poetics was in evidence at Port-Royal in a period when its affiliates might rather have been suspected of an ideological hostility to any such activity, but also that an important evolution takes place within the writi…

Antoinettede Salvande Saliès: Édition annotée par Gérard Gouvernet. (Sources classiques, 55). Paris, Champion, 2004. 509 pp. Hb €83.00. Gérard Gouvernet has a charming line in understatement. Of Antoinette de Salvan de Saliès, he remarks, for example, that ‘la postérité ne l'a pas retenue parmi les grands auteurs français’, and, of her Réflexions chrétiennes, that ‘cet opuscule n'a pas fait couler beaucoup d'encre’. So what have we been missing? …

Racine
Racine, described by Roland Barthes 1 as 'l'auteur le plus transparent de notre litterature', figures, by the same token, among those writers to whom, both before and after Barthes's own seminal essay, many of the critical languages available at particular historical moments have been fruitfully applied. But even if no writing on Racine since Barthes can easily ignore the impact of Sur Racine, there is still a good deal of earlier, often more ecl…

By Raymond Baustert. (Biblio-17, 141). Tübingen, Gunter Narr Verlag, 2003. 387 pp. The first part of Raymond Baustert's engaging scholarly monograph consists of eight related chapters, all of which have previously been published as articles in the last decade or so. These are now reinforced by linking material in such a way as to allow them to read persuasively as a composite survey of the classical and Judaeo-Christian material present in the le…
