Celebre pour ses travaux d'economie politique ainsi que pour son
activite diplomatique, Ferdinando Galiani (1728-1787) incarne un
type singulier de 'philosophe', s'attribuant et reniant cette
appellation en fonction des contextes. Bien que refusant de
construire un systeme ordonne d'idees, Galiani produit un savoir
philosophique qui accompagne et enrichit ses projets politiques.
Situee au carrefour de l'histoire, de la litterature et de la
philosophie, cette monographie etudie ainsi le parcours de Galiani
en mesurant la finalite sociale et politique de sa production
philosophico-litteraire, et en saisissant son identite de
'philosophe' entre Naples et Paris. Quelles influences ces deux
milieux socioculturels ont-ils eu sur sa pensee et sur sa carriere?
Cette interrogation constitue le coeur d'une analyse souhaitant
reconsiderer conjointement les contextes napolitain et parisien, ou
les termes de 'philosophe et de 'filosofo se chargent de
significations, de pratiques et d'emplois differencies. A l'aune
des discours, des pratiques et des representations que cet auteur
construit tout au long de sa vie, ce livre inscrit Galiani dans la
dimension concrete du travail philosophique, en etudiant sa maniere
de vivre en philosophe, la ou les batailles philosophiques, les
succes editoriaux et la gloire cohabitent sans antagonisme avec des
inquietudes d'ordre materiel, des craintes concernant sa reputation
ou encore des echecs. --- Famous for his works on political economy
as well as for his diplomatic activity, Ferdinando Galiani
(1728-1787) embodies a singular type of 'philosopher', attributing
and denying himself this designation according to the context.
Although he refused to construct an ordered system of ideas,
Galiani produced a philosophical knowledge that accompanied and
enriched his political projects. Situated at the crossroads of
history, literature and philosophy, this monograph studies
Galiani's career by measuring the social and political purpose of
his philosophical-literary production, and by establishing his
identity as a 'philosopher' between Naples and Paris. What
influences did these two socio-cultural milieus have on his thought
and his career? This question constitutes the core of an analysis
that aims to simultaneously reconsider the Neapolitan and Parisian
contexts, where the terms 'philosophe and 'filosofo take on
different meanings, practices and uses. In the light of the
discourses, practices and representations that this author
constructed throughout his life, this book places Galiani in the
real dimension of philosophical work, studying his way of life as a
philosopher, where philosophical battles, editorial successes and
fame coexist without conflict with material worries, fears about
his reputation or even failures.
