Lebanon-Palestine to the circumnavigation of 1864-1865 in the Near East, a movement which is part of a major cycle which goes from the writing in 1864-1874 of the Phoenicia Mission to the seven volumes of Origins of Christianity written between 1861 and 1882.
The specificity of the contributions gathered here is precisely to focus on Renan in the Orient, which is a kind of experimental novel, from which life springs. From the places themselves: a Phoenicia emerging from excavations, Jesus encountered in Palestine, Paul's lightning departure over hill and sea, the stop in Athens before setting off again, Christianity igniting from port to port. From the traveler himself: archaeologist, poet of Jesus in Ghazir in Lebanon, tireless follower of the apostle, pilgrim of the Acropolis, Celtic conqueror in the land of the Levant. These two great journeys produced the materials for two beautiful monuments that we never tire of visiting. With, at the heart, Christian passionaria, Henriette Renan, resting there, on the outskirts of ancient Byblos.
