La " chute " de l'Empire romain ne cesse de faire couler beaucoup d'encre. Plus encore, elle a suscité un nombre de publications sans précédent ces dernières années. On la traite à tort comme une énigme historique qu'il s'agirait de résoudre en identifiant les causes, alors que c'est bien la longévité de l'Empire romain qui relève de l'énigmatique. Si elle fascine autant, c'est parce qu'elle agit tel un miroir reflétant les peurs contemporaines du déclin et de l'effondrement, qui connaissent aujourd'hui un nouvel essor au sein de l'" Empire américain " comme de l'Union européenne.
Si ce livre raconte et interroge naturellement le dernier siècle de l'empire d'Occident, il entend montrer que sa " chute " est largement un fantasme. Non seulement il est impossible d'en épuiser la réalité, mais encore la culture occidentale semble n'avoir aucun désir d'y renoncer. La raison en est peut-être que cet abandon mettrait en cause le pessimisme foncier qui la sous-tend. Cette " chute " est devenue une histoire sans fin, car on s'efforce en vain d'accumuler les facteurs incertains d'un événement sans contours définissables, tandis qu'elle sert en réalité de miroir et d'exutoire à nos angoisses.
