Résumé : “Fake news,” to use the popular term, is widespread in books, magazines, and newspapers, with the result that whole segments of the events which have marked past centuries remain in the shadows: the crossing of the Red Sea; the collapse of the walls of Jericho; the ups and downs in the lives of Joan of Arc, Napoleon Bonaparte, and Charles de Gaulle; the hidden stories behind the paintings of Leonardo da Vinci, Rembrandt, Géricault, Ingres,
and Picasso; those of the musical compositions of Handel, Beethoven, Bizet, and Ravel; and those behind the discoveries of Gutenberg, Edison, Marconi, Pasteur, and Einstein. As the author suggests, this is all the more
reason for us to occasionally look back at diﬀerent historical sources in order to arrive at a personal, rational, and objective understanding of the past.
Biographie : Writer, lecturer, musician, and poet, Daniel Bourgue has appeared all over the world. Critics unanimously called him one of the best horn soloists of his generation, praising his virtuosity, his beautiful sound, and the elegance and purity of his style. A recipient of several “Grand prix du disque” for his recordings, he now devotes himself
to writing. Already the author of numerous pedagogical works, he has published his autobiography, Around the World in 80 Years, as well as The Voice of the Mountain (short stories), The Treasure of SaintDrézéry (Byzantine frescoes), and Songs of Love (a collection of poetry).
