Paperback, 250 p., 155 x 240 mm ISBN 9782503508986. La theorie du micro-macrocosme qui etablit des similitudes de toutes sortes entre les elements du monde et ceux qui composent l'homme, a constitue dans les civilisations orientales l'une des grandes representations de l'etre humain face au cosmos.Elle a perdure dans toutes les ecoles de pensee de l'Antique au Moyen Age. L'etude de ce theme dans differentes cultures religieuses de la Mediterranee Orientale a l'Inde peut permettre une approche comparative a partir du present volume. Aux innombrables homologies que les brahmanes se sont appliques a construire, repondent les speculations que les Odes de Salomon, les psaumes manicheens ou les nouveaux documents sur le marcionisme fournissentsur ce meme theme, aussi bien qu'un poeme syriaque jusqu'ici inedit d'un auteur du 13eme siecle, G. Warda. Sans doute la Chine ou le Tibet, comme la Grece ou la culture arabe, pourraient nous apporter bien d'autres elements de comparaison, mais un seul volume ne pouvait contenir un ensemble de representations religieuses aussi riche de sens.
