La science de l'histoire est une digue inebranlable qui s'oppose au torrent du temps(...). C'est parce que j'en suis convaincue, que moi, Anne, la fille des empereurs Alexis et Irene, nee et elevee dans la Porphyra, qui non seulement ne suis pas etrangere aux lettres, mais qui me suis attachee a la connaissance approfondie du grec, qui, sans avoir negligee la rhetorique, ai lu avec attention les traites d'Aristote ainsi que les dialogues de Platon, et qui ai muri mon esprit par le quadrivium des science(...), je veux, dans cet ouvrage que j'ecris, raconter les actions de mon pere qui ne doivent pas etre livrees au silence, ni entrainees par le torrent du temps comme un ocean d'oubli, aussi bien toutes celles qu'il accomplit une fois maitre du pouvoir, que toutes celles qu'il accomplit avant son couronnement au service d'autres empereurs. Au soir de sa vie, la princesse byzantine, fille de l'empereur Alexis, Anne Comnene (10831148) et femme du non moins celebre historien Nicephore Bryenne, explique en ces termes le projet de son livre. Outre l'hommage emouvant d'une fille a son pere, L'Alexiade abrite le recit d'une periode historique passionnante, ou Turcs et Croises se dechirent et menacent Byzance, ou se croisent des figures aussi riches que Godefroi de Bouillon, Isaac de Comnene, le valeureux Georges Paleologue ou le Normand Bohemond ou les intrigues de palais ne sont interrompues que par les recits de batailles et les invasions barbares . Notre edition presente en trois tomes les XV livres de l'Alexiade. La precieuse introduction fournit tous les elements necessaires, biographiques, historiques ou linguistiques a la bonne intelligence du texte, tandis que des notes accompagnent, et eclairent la lecture. La traduction, souple et precise, met a la portee de tous ce magnifique texte de la litterature byzantine.
