About the Book

Celui qui ne sait pas garder le secret, ses affaires pericliteront a coup sur, meme si elles avaient d'abord reussi, comme un bateau desempare sur l'ocean. Ce texte est le traite de politique par excellence de l'Inde ancienne. Son objet n'est pas de s'interroger sur la meilleure forme de gouvernement. Pour son auteur, la reponse a cette question est claire: le seul regime valable est la monarchie, le roi doit concentrer tous les pouvoirs et, sans un pouvoir fort, on tomberait dans la violence anarchique. Sur cette base, le texte est redige comme un manuel d'instruction princiere: comment le souverain doit-il asseoir le pouvoir de l'Etat, comment doit-il reguler l'economie et comment doit-il se comporter en politique etrangere, avec ses allies et ses ennemis ? Le titre sanskrit de cet ouvrage pourrait etre traduit par Traite du profit . La politique occupe en effet la place essentielle dans la science du profit qui constitue, dans l'Inde classique, l'un des trois grands objets de l'activite humaine, les deux autres etant le devoir et le plaisir. L'Arthashatra, apres des siecles d'oubli, n'a ete redecouvert qu'en 1905 par Rudrapatna Shamasastry alors que ce chercheur effectuait le catalogage des manuscrits (sur feuilles de palmier) de la Mysore Oriental Library. Ceci pose la question des manuscrits et de la transmission du savoir en Inde, dont l'histoire est bien differente de la tradition occidentale. Pour donner quelques elements de comprehension de ce contexte, l'ouvrage est illustre par les photos de manuscrits, d'archives et d'archivistes indiens realisees par Anthony Cerulli dans le cadre de son projet Manuscriptistan , ainsi que d'une notice presentant la tradition ecdotique indienne.
