English summary: Ibn Rushd, also known as Averroes, was one of the most important figures in the transmission of Greco-Arabic thought to the Latin West during the Middle Ages. His work was, however, also the source of heretical theories that troubled the European scholastic and religious establishment, which is the subject of this book. French description: De son vrai nom Abu l-Walid Muhammad ibn Ahmad Ibn Rusd, Averroes (1126, Cordoue - 1198, Marrakech) est le personnage de plusieurs histoires: medecin, juriste, cadi, philosophe et commentateur d'Aristote, il est a la fois l'heritier des grandes figures de la pensee greco-arabe, puis par la traduction, la diffusion et l'usage de ses oeuvres, l'une des sources majeures des cultures medievales juives et latines. Mais de ce maitre, la scolastique fit aussi un scandale. Pour des siecles, en Europe, Averroes sera le pere insense d'une theorie degradante et antireligieuse sur l'homme. Le livre parle de cela.
