Title
Je suis Homme ; et rien de ce qui intéresse l’Homme ne m’est étranger.
Description
Français : En 1771, Henri Bernardin de Saint-Pierre, écrivain et botaniste, rapporte de son voyage des observations sur l’esclavage à l’île Maurice. L’estampe est un plaidoyer pour l’abolition de la servitude. Au premier plan figure un homme noir, un genou en terre, qui tient d’une main le Code Noir et de l’autre des chaînes brisées. Il demande par ce geste à être libéré des chaînes qu’impose ce texte du 17e siècle. Un fouet, symbole de la violence des traitements infligés aux esclaves, gît sur les chaînes. Il adresse sa requête à un homme, sans doute l’auteur, en réfère la présence de coquillages, de plantes et de cartes au premier plan. L’écrivain a interrompu sa rédaction pour écouter la parole de l’esclave. Au loin figurent des navires, image du commerce triangulaire sur lequel repose le système colonial. - Bibliothèque municipale de Lyon, mis en ligne sur Numelyo
