LOUIS XV (0),Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Prince fornicateur, adultre, incestueux, sacrilge, voleur public, ivrogne, fainant, idiot, excommuni, n'ayant point fait ses Pques depuis prs de vingthuit ans et digne de toute la colre de Dieu. A cette condamnation sans appel par un contemporain, rpond cette rhabilitation tranquille et non moins excessive par un historien du sicle dernier : ' Louis XV tait un saint '. Ces jugements des plus contradictoires puisent la mme source : avec Louis XV, l'image du roi a subi une csure dfinitive entre vie publique et vie prive. Considre comme une vidence, cette csure a rendu possible une rputation d'immoralit et de dbauche d'une part, d'indolence et de faiblesse d'autre part. Malgr leur rudition, les tudes rcentes qui ont tent de rhabiliter le roi, ont chou. Pour mieux comprendre ce que signifie ,, tre roi ' en France l'poque des remises en cause de l'absolutisme, il fallait tenter de ressaisir la personne royale la fois dans son unit et dans sa complexit. Au rcit linaire qui constitue la trame coutumire des biographies, on a prfr l'esquisse d'un portrait historique par touches successives. Ainsi, Louis XV se trouve rtabli connue roi dans chacune des facettes multiples et parfois contradictoires de sa personnalit. Son rgne apparat alors comme le dvoilement progressif de son autorit au cur d'un tat en proie des antinomies et des blocages structurels. Plutt que le raconter, l'objectif de cette biographie est de comprendre le roi, tout le roi, rien que le roi.
