Martin Buber’s I and Thou has long been acclaimed as a classic. Many prominent writers have acknowledged its influence on their work; students of intellectual history consider it a landmark; and the generation born after World War II considers Buber one of its prophets. Buber’s main proposition is that we may address existence in two ways: (1) that of the “I” toward an “It,” toward an object that is separate in itself, which we either use or experience; (2) that of the “I” toward “Thou,” in which we move into existence in a relationship without bounds.

Au temps de Marc Aurèle, ce volume raconte l’ultime métamorphose des origines chrétiennes face au “règne des philosophes”: une Église qui se structure, une foi qui s’affirme, et un Empire façonné par l’éthique stoïcienne.

En contrechamp, la figure lumineuse de Marc Aurèle, ses Pensées, ses réformes du droit et ses contradictions devant les martyrs, dessine une civilisation au seuil de son crépuscule antique.
