Editor's Note:
Cette tierce livraison du Siècle des Platter est consacrée pour l'essentiel à Thomas junior, troisième personnage marquant de l'extraordinaire dynastie bâloise étudiée depuis des décennies par Emmanuel Le Roy Ladurie. Thomas II est d'autant plus passionnant qu'il sera (dans l'« Hexagone ») un peu moins connu et reconnu que ses deux aînés, père et frère, bien que son texte demeure, comme celui de Felix, un monument de la culture française ainsi qu'européenne, à l'époque de la Renaissance et du baroque. Le présent volume contient la seconde partie du voyage, celle qui couvre la France du Nord, les Pays-Bas du Sud et l'Angleterre, avant le retour définitif au pays bâlois. Le futur médecin, réformé comme ses père et frère, cherche à comprendre le « papisme » et la Contre-Réforme, y compris dans leurs aspects les plus extrêmes, à commencer par le culte des reliques. Si protestant soit-il (ou parce que protestant éclairé), il s'intéresse à toutes les religions passées (les reliquats pagano-romains, monumentaux) ou présentes (les croyances juives, protestantes et catholiques), celles-ci considérées avec une certaine sympathie de facto. Passionné par les grandes entreprises industrielles (salines, moulins, arsenaux des galères, gigantesques ardoisières), qui sont comme des germes de l'avenir capitaliste, il manifeste une grande ouverture d'esprit face aux problèmes relatifs aux femmes, aux villes, aux républiques urbaines. Enfin, il observe avec une attention marquée les diverses monarchies qu'il envisage de visu : monarchie espagnole, tolérante aux libertés urbaines à défaut de l'être aux non-catholiques ; monarchie « belge », fonctionnant sur le mode archiducal par délégation de Madrid ; monarchie anglaise, donc anglicane, dépourvue de tout sectarisme zwinglien et déjà pénétrée d'influences américaines, notamment... tabagistes ; monarchie française enfin, celle d'Henri IV, avec l'attention d'icelle portée à la tolérance religieuse, à la croissance économique, au pouvoir partagé avec les élites, au contact avec les puissances maritimes, protestantes, libérales, capitalistes... Le tout entrecoupé d'extraordinaires morceaux de bravoure : ainsi l'entrée joyeuse des archiducs à Bruxelles et d'étonnants passages sur le trésor du duc de Berry à Bourges, ou les coches autour de Paris...
