About the Book

English summary: Joel Thomas offers readers a dynamic and innovative analysis of Virgils Aeneid and Ovids Metamorphoses. Applying the methodological theories of myth criticism and myth analysis, Thomas brings to light the development of symbolic mythical and mythological forms and the essential influence of these texts on the Western imagination. French description: Osons le dire, ce qu'on va lire sous la plume de Joel Thomas me parait etre fondamental en son domaine. (...) Pour beaucoup de lecteurs, ce livre va etre une heureuse surprise et aussi une source de benefices de tout ordre, car, dans bien des domaines, antiques et modernes, la culture litteraire et philosophique de Joel Thomas est tres etendue et deborde sur les lettres contemporaines, les litteratures orientales et meme, parfois, les conclusions actuelles de la science physique. Paul Veyne, extrait de la preface. L'auteur part d'une relecture de Virgile et d'Ovide: l'Eneide comme epopee initiatique des origines de Rome, et le poeme mythologique des Metamorphoses. Au-dela de l'homme romain, c'est a chacun de nous que Virgile et Ovide parlent: la mythologie est la terre natale de toutes les formes symboliques. Aussi, par-dela vingt-deux siecles, nous nous sentons dans une fraternite avec les peurs, les joies et les desirs qui s'expriment dans ces textes. Enee confronte a l'incertitude du risque et a la certitude de l'amour est l'archetype de chacun de nous essayant de construire son espace personnel. En tant qu'homo viator, il est a la fois guerrier, passeur et exile; et comme heros fondateur, il met en ordre le monde, a mesure qu'il progresse dans l'organisation de sa psyche. Comme le dit Paul Veyne dans sa preface a ce livre, nous y trouvons la verite profonde de ces structures privilegiees de l'imaginaire humain. Au-dela de ces fulgurances, c'est cet echo que l'auteur essaie de reperer plus generalement dans l'imaginaire des Latins, aussi bien pendant la periode augusteenne que dans ses influences, en particulier dans la construction de l'Europe. Car, dans une forme de feed back, l'Eneide est a la fois la matrice et le reflet de la romanite; et le phare de la romanite ne s'est pas eteint avec ses formes materielles. L'Eneide inspirant la Divine Comedie, ou relue par la Creuside de Magda Szabo, Ovide revisite par David Malouf, ou Catulle modele possible pour le Bateau Ivre de Rimbaud: meme lorsque ses formes transitoires ne sont plus, Roma Aeterna demeure, et ce qui demeure, les poetes le fondent (R.-M. Rilke). Pour mieux le mettre en evidence, Joel Thomas a recours a deux outils methodologiques contemporains: la mythocritique, comme etude des textes, et la mythanalyse, comme etude plus generale des formes de l'imaginaire social. Ainsi confrontes, le monde ancien et notre monde contemporain s'eclairent reciproquement.
