Cet article essaye d’analyser l’Histoire de la Guerre du Péloponnèsede Thucydide à la lumière des thèses ricœuriennes sur l’épistémologie de la connaissance historique,en prenant notamment en considération les trois moments essentiels de l’opération historiographique: la preuve documentaire, l’explication/compréhension et l’écriture/représentation. Cela nous conduità insérer le texte de Thucydide dans la séquence des trois phases de la mimésis impliquée dans toute mise en discours: préfiguration, configuration et refiguration. Le dialogue que nous établissons entre le philosophe français et l’historien grec nous permet aussi de trouver plusieurs dissimilitudes et similitudes entre les deux, soit en réfléchissant sur la question de la vérité, soit en réfléchissant sur la dialectique entre lire et voir, sous le signe du concept rhétorique de l’enargeia.
This article attempts to analyze the The Peloponnesian War of Thucydides in the light of the Ricoeur's theses on the epistemology of historical knowledge, in particular the three essential moments of the historiographic operation: documentary evidence, explanation / understanding and writing / representation. This leads us to insert the text of Thucydides in the sequence of the three phases of the mimesis involved in any narrative: prefiguration, configuration, refiguration. The dialogue that we establish between the French philosopher and the Greek historian also allows us to find several dissimilarities and similarities between them, either by reflecting on the question of truth or by reflecting on the dialectic between reading and seeing under the guidance of the rhetorical concept of enargeia.
