Editor's Note:
L' intrusion de la mort et de la destruction du corps dans l' entreprise idéalisante d' equilibre et d' harmonie promue par la Renaissance italienne au XIVe siècle. Un classique de l' histoire de l' art qui a mis l' accent sur les tensions entre histoire et histoire de l' art en prenant en defaut l' historiographie instaurée par les premiers historiens de l' art a la Renaissance, au premier rang desquels Vasari.1348: La peste anéantit la moitié de la population de Sienne et de Florence. Un evenement si considerable et si traumatisant ne pouvait rester sans consequences sur l' histoire de la représentation. Occultée par la tradition qu inaugure Vasari et qui s' efforce de décrire la montée de l' idéal renaissant comme un chemin lisse et pratiquement sans accrocs, la peste de 1348 vient pourtant briser net un élan de confiance en soi-même et semer, avec de violents tourbillons, le doute dans les esprits. C' est cette cesure qui fait l' objet du livre aujourd hui classique de Millard Meiss, lequel vient eclairer d' un jour inoubliable cet art du Trecento ou, comme l' a écrit Emile Male, - la mort se montre soudain dans toute son horreur -. Mais la relation de la peinture a l' evenement n' est ni un simple lien de cause a effet, ni celui d' une illustration directe. Avec la peste, l' image d' un monde ordonné et stable - d' un monde qui commençait à ordonner et`à espacer ses images - bascule. Mais les chemins sont lents et complexes, qui vont du traumatisme de l' evenement au dereglement qui se voit dans les peintures. Ils passent notamment par le - desordre de l' imagination - dont la peste est le foyer et par toute l' agitation intellectuelle et mystique qui cherche a lire des signes dans ce desordre. Aussi les figures de sainte Catherine de Sienne ou de Boccace ou encore les courants de prophetie fanatique qui se repandent alors en Toscane sont ils evoqués dans ce livre avec autant de ferveur que les images elles mêmes. De telle sorte qu' entre histoire de l' art et histoire tout court un pont, prudent mais solide, est ici tendu."
