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.

He found the ancient city of Alexandria in the Caucasus (modern Begram) dating to Alexander the Great. He unlocked the now-extinct language known as Kharoshthi. At the time of the 1838 First Anglo-Afghan War, Masson had spent more time in Afghanistan then any other British subject. He was a minority voice critical of the invasion and accurately predicted it would be a disaster for the Empire. The first book-length biography was published in 2021, Alexandria: The Quest for the Lost City, by Edmund Richardson. In 1827, while stationed at Agra, he and a colleague deserted and traveled through parts of the Punjab that were under British control at that time.
