Entre novembre 1640 et avril 1641, Hobbes et Descartes debattent d'optique et de philosophie via Mersenne, leur ami commun. Le debat tourne court. Descartes refuse la discussion avec un materialiste; Hobbes est etranger a l'experience spirituelle des Meditations - refonder tout l'edifice du savoir en rendant manifeste l'existence de realites, l'esprit humain et Dieu, qui ne relevent pas de la nouvelle physique mecaniste. Les Objections de Hobbes aux Meditations et les Reponses de Descartes n'ont connu qu'une seule traduction en francais depuis 1647, celle de Clerselier. Jean Terrel en presente ici une nouvelle, a laquelle il joint le texte latin ainsi qu'un commentaire que rendent necessaire la concision des objections et l'exasperation qui croit au fil des reponses. Une lettre envoyee par Mersenne le 16 mai 1641 et les reponses de Descartes completent le dossier de ce debat impossible.
