Cover of Gustave Flaubert: Hérodias (ePUB)

Depuis un mois, le tétrarque Antipas détient prisonnier le juif Jean-Baptiste dans le plus profond des cachots de sa citadelle. Jean-Baptiste s”oppose fermement à la relation entre Hérodias, la nièce d”Antipas, et le tétrarque.Mais aujourd”hui, alors qu”il a convié les grandes puissances du royaume pour son anniversaire, Antipas doit céder aux caprices de Vitellius le Proconsul, et ouvrir ses souterrains au public. Tous découvrent alors Jean-Baptiste qui, d”une puissante voix, dévoile une prophétie funeste à l”encontre de ceux qui le retiennent…Dans cette nouvelle parue dans le recueil « Trois Contes », Flaubert mêle ses recherches et sources historiques à la fable et la fiction. Il recompose ainsi les portraits d”Hérodias et d”Hérode Antipas, de Salomé et de Jean le Baptiste, figures tragiques et emblématiques de l”Orient au temps de Jésus.-
