Sommario/riassunto |
|
Le succès universel de Quo vadis ? a quelque peu figé l’image de son auteur, Henryk Sienkiewicz (1846-1916) et occulté la richesse et la diversité de son œuvre. Les auteurs de Sienkiewicz, voyageur dans le temps et dans l’espace, armés des outils de la critique contemporaine, en nuancent et approfondissent la portée ; ils n’oublient pas l’aventure de l’homme Sienkiewicz qui, tout en étant de son temps et de son milieu, sut s’affranchir des contraintes. Avec beaucoup de liberté, ce nouvel homo viator infatigable, sillonna en effet Amérique, Europe, Afrique... Attentif au comportement de l’individu et à l’organisation de la société dans des pays « lointains », il observe, imagine, médite, raconte. Ses voyages d’un continent ou d’une époque à l’autre témoignent, dans la description des faits comme dans les emportements romanesques, d’une authentique empathie pour tout ce qui est humain. On découvre aussi que l’ironie, si présente dans les textes de Sienkiewicz, est plutôt une défense devant l’irrésistible et angoissant mouvement de l’Histoire. Le lecteur rencontrera ainsi le témoin d’une époque où le désenchantement du monde commence à se déployer et il pourra suivre les confrontations de Sienkiewicz avec ses contemporains, Zola notamment ; il sera également surpris par le parallèle esquissé entre l’écrivain polonais et le romancier Houellebecq… Voyages multiples dans le temps, l’espace, les civilisations. Le volume est accompagné de larges extraits des Lettres de voyage en Amérique traduits en français. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
Most anyone interested in such topics as creation mythology, Jungian theory, or the idea of "secret teachings" in ancient Judaism and Christianity has found "gnosticism" compelling. Yet the term "gnosticism," which often connotes a single rebellious movement against the prevailing religions of late antiquity, gives the false |

|
|
impression of a monolithic religious phenomenon. Here Michael Williams challenges the validity of the widely invoked category of ancient "gnosticism" and the ways it has been described. Presenting such famous writings and movements as the Apocryphon of John and Valentinian Christianity, Williams uncovers the similarities and differences among some major traditions widely categorized as gnostic. He provides an eloquent, systematic argument for a more accurate way to discuss these interpretive approaches. The modern construct "gnosticism" is not justified by any ancient self-definition, and many of the most commonly cited religious features that supposedly define gnosticism phenomenologically turn out to be questionable. Exploring the sample sets of "gnostic" teachings, Williams refutes generalizations concerning asceticism and libertinism, attitudes toward the body and the created world, and alleged features of protest, parasitism, and elitism. He sketches a fresh model for understanding ancient innovations on more "mainstream" Judaism and Christianity, a model that is informed by modern research on dynamics in new religious movements and is freed from the false stereotypes from which the category "gnosticism" has been constructed. |
