English summary: The great post-Descartes philosophers of the classic era formulated a metaphysics which claimed to have rediscovered, through reason, the truths behind faith: creationist metaphysics. Yet the idea of God is not endorsed by modern reason, which, since Kant, has been a moral reason. The so-called work of God encompasses what can no longer be overlooked: absolute evil. Yet, having abandoned the idea of God, what now falls apart, piece by piece, are all the concepts once linked to this idea - hence accomplishing the deconstruction which is the aim of this book. The latter paves the way, by reducing our perceptions to the nothingness of life - herein referred to as Appearance - for what Conche will call, in his future works, a metaphysics of nature (phusis) to replace the former God, which is thus deconstructed. By accepting a return to Greek reasoning and reliance on Milet, Elea, and Ephesus, something new can be constructed.
