De Platon et Philon à Basile de Césarée et Georges Pisidès: les métamorphoses du démiurge dans son œuvre devenue outil de perfectionnement chrétien (2020)
Du «paganisme» antique au christianisme, en transitant par le judaïsme, le concept de « démiurge », créateur du monde, a sensiblement évolué, même si l’influence de la philosophie grecque demeure perceptible sur cette question chez un théologien byzantin comme Basile de Césarée, source chrétienne fondamentale. Basile a en particulier inspiré au VIIe siècle à Byzance Georges Pisidès, dans une célébration commune de l’hexaéméron dont la spécificité chrétienne se dégage sur deux points essentiels : l’importance de la Trinité divine dans la Création, et la perfection de la Création, source d’émerveillement et de respect car manifestation de la puissance, de l’intelligence et de la bonté du Créateur. Mais un auteur byzantin du XIIe siècle, Théodore Prodrome, choisit de transgresser les normes établies en présentant - dans un ouvrage de fiction - une variante parodique de Création et de personne du démiurge. From ancient “paganism” to Christianity, passing through Judaism, the concept of “demiurge”, creator of the world, has been crucially evolved, even if the influence of Greek philosophy remains noticeable on this question in a Byzantine theologian such as Basil of Caesarea, fundamental Christian source. Basil had been the main source of inspiration for the 7th century Byzantine poet, Georges of Pisidia, in a common celebration of the six days of Creation. The Christian specificity of these hexaemerons emerges on two essential points: the importance of the divine Trinity within Creation, and the perfection of Creation, source of wonder and respect, since manifestation of the power, intelligence and kindness of the Creator. Yet, a 12th century Byzantine author, Theodore Prodromos, chose to transgress the established norms by presenting −in a work of fiction− a parodic variant of Creation and of demiurge’ person.
