Notre siecle connait-il encore Flavius Josephe, ce pretre ne a Jerusalem qui, il y a pres de deux mille ans, fut au centre de l'affrontement entre le monde juif et le monde romain? Un homme au destin exceptionnel: apres avoir ete l'un des chefs de la grande revolte des Juifs contre Rome en 66, il predit l'empire a Vespasien, se retrouva trois ans plus tard aux cotes de Titus sous les remparts de sa ville natale assiegee et finit ses jours a Rome aupres de ses protecteurs imperiaux qui lui donnerent un nouveau nom, Flavius.Fut-il un traitre? Fut-il un sage? Josephe est en tout cas le meilleur temoin de ce temps qui vit naitre le christianisme, un grand historien sans lequel certaines des pages les plus dramatiques de l'histoire, l'incendie du Temple de Jerusalem, la chute de Massada, seraient aujourd'hui inconnues.Normalienne, agregee et docteur es lettres, Mireille Hadas-Lebel (Bonan) est actuellement professeur a l'Institut national des Langues et Civilisations orientales.
