English summary: This classic of Latin literary studies offers a vast and original summary of lost literature, focusing in tome 1 on works from the Republican period, then, in tome 2, on works up to the fifth century BCE (excluding Christian literature). Only brief fragments and traces remain of these adulated authors, poets, and tragedians without whom Horace or Virgil would not have been able to write their works. Henry Bardon show how little is left of the abundant Latin literature, sheds light on the cause of its decadence, and the reasons why so many works have disappeared. French description: Ce classique des etudes latines propose une synthese vaste et originale sur la litterature inconnue , d'abord jusqua lepoque republicaine (tome 1) puis en fouillant la litterature latine jusqu'au Ve siecle (tome 2), laissant deliberement de cote la litterature chretienne. Mais quest-ce que la litterature inconnue ? Il sagit de tous les auteurs que le fatum libri selon lexpression chere a Nietzsche, a choisi denterrer. De ces grands noms dont le talent fut adule, il ne reste que des vestiges, des traces, des fragments et des souvenirs, au detour dune citation ou dune reference. Parmi eux figurent des poetes Augusteens comme Mecene, Messalla ou Asinius Pollion, et des tragediens comme Ennius, sans qui Ciceron, Horace ou Virgile nauraient peut-etre pas pu ecrire leurs uvres. Cest donc a une veritable enquete que se livre Henry Bardon, dans cet ouvrage erudit, passionnant et sans equivalent. Henry Bardon s'est acquitte d'une tache immense et a clarifie bien des questions. Il a montre combien peu nous est reste de la surabondante litterature latine et ses dernieres pages, etudiant les causes de la decadence des lettres paiennes, puis les causes de la disparition de tant d'uvres, restent exemplaires.
