English summary: After having outlined in several books (Lumiere, commencement, liberte, Construction d'un chateau, Les Actes de la joie, La Jouissance d'etre, La Nacre et le Rocher) a doctrine of the subject laying the foundations for an ethic of happiness, the author re-examines the culture which preceded it and presents a few texts that echo his own findings. Each author's specificities are so obvious that any idea of redundancy can be dismissed. Yet the similarity of their concerns, evident in each existential stage, makes it possible to stress how closely related all human beings are, thereby unveiling a concrete universal and a new humanism.Supplementing his philosophic modesty is an equally philosophic ambition. For Robert Misrahi strives to articulate his retrospective vision (the sequencing and interlinking of the texts cited) around a concise itinerary that is both existential and logical - a course taking us from affirmations of anguish to constructs of joy. Through the night of sufferings, the quest of Desire, the denial of renunciation, the discovery of the two freedoms, the courage of conversion, the approaches to fulfilment and the establishment of the happiness of being, the author plots an upward itinerary. The latter, though awkwardly followed by humanity through intermittent, solitary, and ill thought-out experiences, does, however, reveal a common concern and shared power.It may be possible, then, that the multiple experience of literature and philosophy, if not wholly supporting a reflective doctrine on the joy of living, at least justifies its emergence and confirms its relevance.
