Le silence n'est pas la simple absence de bruit. Il réside en nous, dans cette citadelle intérieure que de grands écrivains, penseurs, savants, femmes et hommes de foi, ont cultivée durant des siècles. A l'heure où le bruit envahit tous les espaces, Alain Corbin revient sur l'histoire de cet âge où la parole était rare et précieuse. Condition du recueillement, de la rêverie, de l'oraison, le silence est le lieu intime d'où la parole émerge. Les moines ont imaginé mille techniques pour l'exalter, jusqu'aux chartreux qui vivent sans parler. Philosophes et romanciers ont dit combien la nature et le monde ne sont pas distraction vaine. Une rupture s'est produite, pourtant, aux confins des années 1950, et le silence a perdu sa valeur éducative. L'hypermédiatisation du XXIe siècle nous contraint à être partie du tout plutôt que de se tenir à l'écoute de soi, modifiant la structure même de l'individu. Redécouvrir l'école du silence, tel est l'enjeu de ce livre dont chaque citation est une invitation à la méditation, au retour sur soi. Avec ce goût pour l'insaisissable qui a donné naissance à ses plus grands livres, (Le miasme et la jonquille, Les cloches de la terre...), Alain Corbin nous invite à entendre une autre Histoire.

"The present volume is focused on the interactions and syncretistic tensions between religion and philosophy in Late Antiquity. The contributors examine issues of personal religious attitudes, initiation to the mysteries, Orphism, theurgy, magic, the Neoplatonist philosopher's quest for intimacy or union with the divine, magic and Christianity, and oracles, dream-visions and divination."--

Studies of the notion of theoria and of the contemplative life have often been restricted to Plato and Aristotle. This volume shows that aspirations to contemplation and the life of the intellect survived long after the classical period, turning into topics of heated debates, powerful arguments and original applications throughout the Hellenistic, imperial, and late antique periods. The introduction attempts to reconstruct all the problems pertaining to the contemplative life in Antiquity, and the twelve papers, written by distinguished scholars, offer a thorough study of the appropriation, criticism and transformation of Plato’s and Aristotle’s positions on the contemplative life, including its epistemological and metaphysical foundation. The volume ranges from Theophrastus to the end of Antiquity, including Jewish and Christian authors, with a focus on Platonism from Cicero to Damascius.
