Charles Amiel & Anne Lima
L'inquisition de Goa - La relation de Charles Dellon (1687)
Chandeigne, 2003, collection Magellane dirigée par Michel Chandeigne & Anne Lima, in/8 broché avec une jaquette en couleurs, 462 pages. Illustrations en noir, notes, cartes. Étude, édition & notes de Charles Amiel & Anne Lima. Dès 1687, un petit livre élégant et accablant à la fois, la Relation de l'Inquisition de Goa, étonne l'Europe. Son auteur, Charles Dellon, jeune médecin français originaire d'Agde, y conte par le menu les quatre années de captivité qu'il a passées en Inde, au Brésil et à Lisbonne aux mains de l'Inquisition portugaise. Traduit aussitôt en anglais, en allemand et en néerlandais, l'ouvrage connaît un succès durable et va jouer un rôle capital dans le combat contre l'intolérance à l'époque des Lumière. Voltaire s'en inspirera dans Candide ; Bayle, Limborch, Lesage, Montesquieu, le marquis d'Argens, d'Alembert, l'abbé Morellet, Beccaria, Buchanan, sans oublier la presse, l'ont remarqué, apprécié, utilisé. Rares furent les esprits libres qui ne firent pas écho à ce témoignage au parfum de roman d'aventure doublé d'un redoutable pamphlet politique et religieux. Pour donner une réelle perspective à cette réédition commentée et illustrée, une étude liminaire, qui met au jour plus d'une source inconnue ou restée inédite, s'est souciée d'éclairer le lecteur sur l'histoire de l'Inquisition de Goa, le parcours dans le siècle d'un auteur méconnu, l'histoire compliquée d'un texte qui servit divers enjeux en France et à l'étranger, la véracité des faits rapportés, la fortune enfin d'une œuvre qui demeure une impeccable analyse des tares et des excès de l'institution inquisitoriale.

Charles Dudley Warner 1829 � 1900 was an American essayist novelist and friend of Mark Twain. Warner was born of Puritan descent in Plainfield Massachusetts. From the ages of six to fourteen he lived in Charlemont Massachusetts the scene of the experiences pictured in his study of childhood Being a Boy 1877. Warner traveled widely lectured frequently and was actively interested in prison reform city park supervision and other movements for the public good. He was the first president of the National Institute of Arts and Letters and at the time of his death was president of the American Social Science Association. He first attracted attention by the reflective sketches entitled My Summer in a Garden 1870; first published in The Hartford Courant popular for their abounding and refined humour and mellow personal charm their wholesome love of outdoor things their suggestive comment on life and affairs and their delicately finished style qualities that suggest the work of Washington Irving. In 1873 Warner and Mark Twain published their co-authored book The Gilded Age: A Tale of Today which gave that era of American history its name. Charles Dudley Warner is known for making the famous remark "Everybody complains about the weather but nobody does anything about it." This was quoted by Mark Twain in a lecture and is still commonly misattributed to Twain. Houghton Mifflin Company: The Riverside Press, hardcover
