About this manuscript:
Les gens seraient étendus sur la plage ou bien, sirotant un apéritif, ils s’apprêteraient à déjeuner, et ils entendraient causer de Montaigne sur le poste. Quand Philippe Val m’a demandé de parler des Essais sur France Inter durant l’été, quelques minutes chaque jour de la semaine, l’idée m’a semblé très bizarre, et le défi si risqué que je n’ai pas osé m’y soustraire. D’abord, réduire Montaigne à des extraits, c’était absolument contraire à tout ce que j’avais appris, aux conceptions régnantes du temps où j’étais étudiant. À l’époque, l’on dénonçait la morale traditionnelle tirée des Essais sous la forme de sentences et l’on prônait le retour au texte dans sa complexité et ses contradictions. Quiconque aurait osé découper Montaigne et le servir en morceaux aurait été aussitôt ridiculisé, traité de minus habens, voué aux poubelles de l’histoire comme un avatar de Pierre Charron, l’auteur d’un Traité de la sagesse fait de maximes empruntées aux Essais. Revenir sur un tel interdit, ou trouver comment le contourner, la provocation était tentante. Ensuite, choisir une quarantaine de passages de quelques lignes afin de les gloser brièvement, d’en montrer à la fois l’épaisseur historique et la portée actuelle, la gageure paraissait intenable. Fallait-il choisir les pages au hasard, comme saint Augustin ouvrant la Bible ? Prier une main innocente de les désigner ? Ou bien traverser au galop les grands thèmes de l’œuvre ? Donner un aperçu de sa richesse et de sa diversité ? Ou encore me contenter de retenir certains de mes fragments préférés, sans souci d’unité ni d’exhaustivité ? J’ai fait tout cela à la fois, sans ordre ni préméditation. Enfin, occuper l’antenne à l’heure de Lucien Jeunesse, auquel je dois la meilleure part de ma culture adolescente, c’était une offre qui ne se refuse pas. » En 40 chapitres, Antoine Compagnon interprète Montaigne d'une façon claire, limpide, drôle. De l'engagement jusqu'au trône du monde en passant par la conversation ou l'éducation. Professeur au collège de France, ce grand spécialiste de l'autobiographie nous présente un Montaigne estival qui permet de bronzer notre âme. L’été avec Montaigne bénéficiera d'une forte promotion sur l'antenne de France Inter (Messages et émissions).
