Caligula
of Albert Camus, Pierre-Louis Rey, P. Morgan (Translator), E.T. Jones (Translator)
Description
Ange en quĂȘte d'absolu ? Monstre sanguinaire ? Avant la guerre, Albert Camus conçoit Caligula, ainsi que Sisyphe ou Meursault (L'Ătranger), comme un hĂ©ros de l'Absurde. En 1945, la piĂšce est reçue comme une fable sur les horreurs du nazisme. Ses versions et ses mises en scĂšne successives, l'Ă©volution de la sensibilitĂ© du public ont contribuĂ© Ă faire de Caligula une des figures les plus troublantes de notre thĂ©Ăątre. Ă l'image du tyran se superposent, dans notre mĂ©moire, les visages de GĂ©rard Philipe, qui crĂ©a le rĂŽle, et celui d'Albert Camus, qui mĂȘla toujours au besoin de tendresse et Ă l'exigence de puretĂ© une Ă©trange «fixation au meurtre» et «cette violence intĂ©rieure» (Jean Grenier) qui anime son empereur romain.
