Membre de l'Académie française et figure majeure du siècle des Lumières, Jean-François Marmontel revisite dans ce vaste roman historique la conquête du Pérou par les Espagnols. S'appuyant sur les événements qui ont conduit à la chute de l'Empire inca, il fait revivre les grandes figures de cette tragédie: les conquistadors Francisco Pizarro et Diego de Almagro, les souverains Huascar et Atahualpa, ainsi que Bartolomé de Las Casas, le célèbre défenseur des peuples indigènes.
Mêlant histoire, aventure, passion et réflexion philosophique, Marmontel retrace l'affrontement entre deux mondes et dénonce les excès du fanatisme religieux, la soif de l'or et les violences commises au nom de la conquête. À travers le destin de ses personnages, il livre également une méditation sur la justice, la tolérance et la dignité humaine.
Publié à l'une des grandes heures de la pensée des Lumières, Les Incas ou La Destruction de l'Empire du Pérou demeure l'un des romans les plus ambitieux consacrés à la conquête de l'Amérique espagnole et à la disparition des civilisations précolombiennes.
Cette édition illustrée réunit l'intégralité de l'oeuvre en deux tomes et a bénéficié d'un travail de modernisation destiné à en faciliter la lecture.
English description: I have placed upon the stage, according to History, knaves and fanatics; but I have opposed to them true Christians.
- Jean-François Marmontel
Set against the fall of the Inca Empire, Marmontel's celebrated historical novel combines adventure, romance, and philosophical reflection. Through the stories of Francisco Pizarro, Atahualpa, Huáscar, and Bartolomé de Las Casas, he recounts the Spanish conquest of Peru and examines its human cost.
Written during the Enlightenment, this classic work denounces fanaticism, greed, and oppression while defending justice, tolerance, and the dignity of Indigenous peoples. Rich in historical detail and moral insight, The Incas; or, The Destruction of the Empire of Peru remains one of the most important literary portrayals of the conquest of the Americas.
This complete illustrated edition includes both Volume I and Volume II and features a modernized text for contemporary readers.
