About the Book

Le Comte de Maistre fait partie de ces auteurs dont, longtemps, l'oligarchie des vulgaires et la poix des dominants ont desire d'exterminer non seulement la race mais jusqu'au souvenir. Toutefois, par la vertu de sa propre force, la pensee de Joseph de Maistre a ecarte les dandins et les forfaiteurs qui ont tout essaye afin que ses pages fussent reduites au silence, et l'oeuvre regne desormais imperturbablement sur les arts veritables et la litterature essentielle. Demeurait une embarrassante contradiction: si la plupart des ouvrages du grand homme sont aujourd'hui disponibles, sa Correspondance etait introuvable depuis plus d'un siecle. Or cette Correspondance n'est assurement pas un pan facultatif de son univers: elle occupe en effet a elle seule quasiment la moitie des volumes dont sont constituees les OEuvres completes de l'auteur. Negliger cet impressionnant et somptueux massif serait donc non seulement deraisonnable, mais irrationnel. Toute la riche aventure maistrienne s'y deroule: de l'arriere-plan de ses relations rompues avec la franc-maconnerie jusqu'a celles, finales, avec le Saint- Siege en passant par les divers exils, les entretiens avec les monarques, les dialogues avec les celebrites de l'Europe, etc. Ici, en contexte, toute sa pensee se precise. En une epoque ou l'on ecrivait des lettres soit comme de brefs essais officieusement publics afin de rendre limpide a differents cercles tel point d'une discussion de fond, soit tout au contraire afin de faire certaines confidences a tel membre de sa famille ou tel ami fidele, cette Correspondance dit tout: sur l'homme, sur l'oeuvre, sur la formation de l'homme et de l'oeuvre ainsi que sur la relation entre le monde et le penseur - tout en deroulant la chronique et le commentaire perpetuel d'evenements qui, de 1786 a 1821, sont ceux de l'une des periodes les plus bouillantes de l'Histoire. Les choses sont claires: se trouvant parmi les grands ensembles epistolaires legues par la litterature et la philosophie, la Correspondance de J. de Maistre est indispensable a la comprehension de son oeuvre. Au coeur meme de celle-ci, ces lettres constituent la meilleure des introductions a son sens, a sa visee, a sa force et sa portee. En presence de la parole privee de ce grand homme, chacun devient le temoin d'une generosite creatrice attachee a une majestueuse noblesse de coeur tandis qu'une pensee puissante se deploie dans un style parfait: et le lecteur voit vivre l'ame prophetique de celui qui fut l'auteur de chevet de Baudelaire et de Balzac.
