Product DescriptionAvant le dveloppement de la dmocratie, les hommes vivaient sous une Loi: celle des anctres, ou celle de Dieu. Ils se reconnaissaient en principe soumis quelque chose qui leur tait extrieur et suprieur. Aujourd'hui, la socit veut s'organiser selon les droits de l'homme: l'homme n'y veut rencontrer que luimme.Or nous nous qualifions de modernes, nous nous pensons comme modernes, c'estdire comme diffrents de l'homme simplement homme. Ainsi l'homme moderne veut n'tre qu'un homme, et tre autre chose qu'un homme. Ce livre explore cette dualit, ou cette duplicit.L'ide que soutient Pierre Manent est que la conscience, et le dsir, d'tre moderne tiennent une contradiction antrieure irrsolue, que la " modernit " recouvre et dont elle vit: celle entre la cit et l'Eglise, entre le paganisme et le christianisme, entre la nature et la grce. L'homme moderne est celui qui rejette les vertus paennes au nom des vertus chrtiennes, et qui rejette les vertus chrtiennes au nom des paennes. Il est celui qui, rfutant Athnes par Jrusalem et Jrusalem par Athnes, ne cesse de dsirer, et d'apercevoir sa porte, une troisime cit, qui pourtant ne cesse de lui chapper: la cit de l'homme.L'illusion spcifique de l'homme moderne, c'estdire l'illusion de l'avenir, est de prendre cette double ngation pour une affirmation. L'ambition de ce livre est de dissiper cette illusion.Pierre Manent, directeur d'tudes l'Ecole des hautes tudes en sciences sociales, est l'auteur notamment de Naissances de la politique moderne: Machiavel, Hobbes, Rousseau (1977), Histoire intellectuelle du libralisme: dix leons (1987), Tocqueville et la nature de la dmocratie (1982, rd. 1993).About the AuthorN en 1949, Pierre Manent est philosophe.
