Product Description Grandir, vieillir ; mais galement lindiffrence qui se creuse, jour aprs jour, entre les anciens amants, sans mme quils sen aperoivent ; comme aussi les Rvolutions se renversant, sans crier gare, en privilges, ou bien le rchauffement de la plante : autant de modifications qui ne cessent de se produire ouvertement devant nous, mais si continment et de faon globale, de sorte quon ne les peroit pas. Mais on en constate soudain le rsultat qui nous revient en plein visage. Or si cette transformation continue nous chappe, cest sans doute que loutil de la philosophie grecque, pensant en termes de formes dtermines, chouait capter cette indterminable de la transition. De l lintrt passer par la pense chinoise pour prter attention ce mme : celui de transformations silencieuses qui, sous le sonore de lvnement, rendent compte de la fluidit de la vie et clairent les maturations de lHistoire tout autant que de la Nature. De notion descriptive, on pourra alors en faire un concept de la conduite, stratgique comme aussi politique: face la pense du but et du plan, qui a tant obsd l'Occident, s'y dcouvre l'art d'inflchir les situations sans alerter, d'autant plus efficace qu'il est discret. Franois Jullien About the Author Franois Jullien est philosophe, hellniste et sinologue.Il est lun des penseurs contemporains les plus traduits dans le monde.
