- Title
Entre « maladie naturelle de [l']esprit » et « passion studieuse » curative: Polysémie de la « curiosité » dans les Essais.
- Authors
Martic, Rebekka
- Abstract
The article reexamines the equivocations of "curiosity" under different aspects through the dual prism of disease and cure. It mentions political one, as a contagious illness in times of turmoil; the anthropological one, as natural and original human condition; the medical one, as a symptom of mental morbidity and vitality. It also mentions epistemological one, as experience of the limits and the possibilities in a world in perpetual motion.
