On se souvient du colonel Chabert, de son triste destin: soldat brillant sous l’Empire, consid\u00e9r\u00e9 comme mort au combat, Chabert \u00e9choue, lorsqu’il r\u00e9appara\u00eet \u00e0 Paris, \u00e0 faire reconna\u00eetre ses droits. Il finira lamentablement, dans un asile, priv\u00e9 de son identit\u00e9 civile\u2026 Il n’est pas le seul honn\u00eate homme, dans la\u00a0Com\u00e9die humaine<\/em>, \u00e0 succomber ainsi \u00e0 l’injustice la plus criante. Ce n’est pas pourtant que Chabert et ses malheureux cong\u00e9n\u00e8res \u2013 le cousin Pons, ou C\u00e9sar Birotteau, entre autres exemples \u2013 soient mal d\u00e9fendus: les hommes de loi ne manquent pas, dans le monde balzacien, pour qui le droit est une promesse de justice. S’ils \u00e9chouent parfois \u00e0 s’imposer, malgr\u00e9 leur virtuosit\u00e9 dans la ma\u00eetrise des proc\u00e9dures, c’est qu’ils ont affaire \u00e0 des adversaires (ou \u00e0 des clients) que leurs passions \u00e9garent: l’ordre juridique est r\u00e9duit \u00e0 l’impuissance, lorsque les \u00ab\u00a0ignobles soudures de l’int\u00e9r\u00eat\u00a0\u00bb (comme dit Balzac) se coalisent contre lui.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Le cours prendra la forme d’une introduction \u00e0 la lecture de quelques romans de Balzac o\u00f9 la question du droit est au premier plan: Le Colonel Chabert, L’Interdiction et Le Contrat de mariage<\/em>, puis C\u00e9sar Birotteau et Le Cousin Pons<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ce cours s’adresse aussi bien aux novices qu’\u00e0 un public averti. Il n’y a pas de pr\u00e9requis, si ce n’est le plaisir de (re)d\u00e9couvrir l’univers balzacien.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
