Elena Ciocoiu, "Les Configurations de l’Imaginaire pascalien", Paris, Classiques Garnier, Univers Port-Royal, 2019. Foreword by Gérard Ferreyrolles.
Until now, the concept of imaginary, which started to arouse researchers’ interest around the middle of the 20th century and which has been inspiring more and more studies during these years, has been used especially for the understanding of 19th and 20th century authors and very little for the analysis of 17th century authors. This research is a systemic approach of Blaise Pascal’s imaginary, which establishes a correspondence between the strategies of Pascal’s imaginary and the strategies of his writing, trying to open the way for the confrontation of imaginaries and proposing to consider Pascal’s imaginary as a frontier imaginary, characterised by a dialectical tension between baroque and classical features.
