| Résumé : |
Human rights are a universal value, but they were formulated at a particular time in Western history. It was at about the same time that the West began to be more systematically interested in cultural differences as such. This double approach was interesting and significant. She did not think the reference to the universal and the observation of differences as contradictory. On the contrary, it could even rely on the observation of these differences to challenge Western usages. This intellectual attitude is already that of Montaigne for whom every man carries in him "the image of the human condition", but which does not find the cruelties of the Guarani Tupis more ferocious than those which the French show in their war of religions . Montesquieu gives his Persians a lucid and critical look at French society, but he does not idealize the morals of the harem. |
