Athanasius Kircher (1601/2-1680) fut l'un des derniers polygraphes du monde occidental. En dépit des avancements des dernières décennies, les études sur ce savant souffrent encore d'un retard accumulé il y a plus qu'un siècle ; une lacune majeure concerne son autobiographie (Vita, Augsbourg 1684). Ce travail se propose d'étudier cet ouvrage en adoptant une approche philologique, afin de parvenir à une analyse contextualisée de ses contenus. Pour la première fois, le texte original latin de la Vita est intégralement publié, amendé et traduit en français et en italien. Une confrontation directe est instituée entre les éléments essentiels de la biographie historique de Kircher (préalablement reconstruits grâce aux sources manuscrites et à la littérature secondaire) et le récit autobiographique. Les données tirées de l'exégèse du texte sont ensuite employées pour aborder d'un nouveau point de vue certains lieux de la biographie de Kircher qui ont toujours fait l'objet de descriptions divergentes de la part des critiques. De même, les décalages entre le texte de la Vita et les faits historiques avérés sont employés comme point de départ pour un questionnement des matériels qui permet de mettre en évidence un remaniement volontaire et conscient des données de la part de Kircher.

Why were seventeenth-century antiquarians so spectacularly wrong? Even if they knew what ancient monuments looked like, they deliberately distorted the representation of them in print. Deciphering the printed reconstructions of Giacomo Lauro and Athanasius Kircher, this pioneering study uncovers an antiquity born with print culture itself and from the need to accommodate competitive publishers, ambitious patrons and powerful popes. By analysing the elements of fantasy in Lauro and Kircher's archaeological visions, new levels of meaning appear. Instead of being testimonies of failed archaeology, they emerge as complex architectural messages responding to moral, political, and religious issues of the day. This book combines several histories - print, archaeology, and architecture - in the attempt to identify early modern strategies of recovering lost Rome. Many books have been written on antiquity in the Renaissance, but this book defines an antiquity that is particularly Baroque.
