L'art de la prudence
Baltasar Gracian
Ce texte du jésuite Baltasar Gracià n, figure du Siècle d'Or espagnol, connu une diffusion large en Europe grâce à la traduction française d'Amelot de La Houssaye en 1684. Dés le XIXe, il connait un nouvel essor et on ne compte plus depuis ses nombreux admirateurs: Nietzsche, Valéry, Lacan, Schopenhauer, Debord, Fumaroli... D'une modernité absolue, ces 300 conseils nous donnent à réfléchir sur les qualités des hommes mais surtout sur nous-mêmes, tout en abordant les aspects les plus sombres de la bassesse humaine. L'Art de la prudence est un petit chef-d'ouvre dans son genre. Il est destiné à tout un chacun... Une lecture unique est à l'évidence tout à fait insuffisante, il est plutôt fait pour jouer le rôle d'un véritable compagnon de vie. citation d'Arthur Schopenhauer qui traduisit ce texte en allemand.
