Description

Trop longtemps, Philippe de Commynes (1445-1511) a été cantonné dans une image réductrice : traître à Charles le Téméraire, il avait rejoint Louis XI, dont il était devenu un ministre éminent, sans cesser pour autant de porter en son cœur le poids de ce " péché originel ". A la lumière de documents nouveaux apparaissent des pans entiers d'un personnage infiniment plus complexe, aux champs d'activité bien plus vastes. Ancré dans le Moyen Age par son attachement à ses terres et à ses droits féodaux, Commynes est plus encore tourné vers un monde nouveau où il tisse ses réseaux, de sa Flandre natale jusqu'au cœur de l'Italie en passant par les Balkans... Réseaux politiques, car Commynes est bien le maître diplomate de Louis XI, mais financiers aussi, grâce auxquels l'économie devient un visage du politique. A côté de l'homme d'Etat, c'est encore l'homme privé aux ambitions jamais démenties qui apparaît en pleine lumière, prêt aux rébellions féodales, procédurier inlassable, défenseur hargneux de ses intérêts personnels... Le tout est transcendé par l'écriture de ses Mémoires, un monument littéraire par la force et l'acuité du regard, la liberté du jugement, le poids de l'expérience. Créateur, sous l'autorité de Louis XI, d'une nouvelle approche diplomatique et politique et de sa théorisation, Commynes est, sans maître cette fois, créateur d'une nouvelle écriture de la mémoire et de l'histoire.
