qiie les chers-d'a>uvre du Catliolicisme reconnus pour lels dans tous les lemps el dans tous les pays, il fallait bien
KMOjeler sur la fornie dans c(; qu'clle a de plus serieux , la correction ct rimoression; eneffet, ies chefs-dâ-uvre
nn''ine n'a(iraient qu'iine denii-valeur, si le texle en (jlail inexacl 0(( illisilile.
11 est Ires-vrai que, dans le principe, nn siicC('S inoui dans les fasles de la l.vpographie ayant forci 1'Editeur de

du double Coiirs (CEcrilure saiulc cl (te Tliculo(jie Uirent lirijs avec la correclion insuffisantc donnije dans les inipri-
iiieries a prcsque tout ce qui s'(jdile; il est vrai aussi qu'un cerlain nombre d'aulres volumes, apparlenant J diverses
l'ublications, lurent iinprlm(';s ou Irop noir ou trop blanc. Mais , depuis ces temps iJloigniis, les m(5caniqiies oiit
(iAi. le travail aux presses li bras, ct rimprcssion qui en sort, sans l:Uc dii luxe, atlcndu que le liixe jurerait dans
des oiivrages d'uiie lelle nalure, csl parfaiteraeiit convenable sous lous lcs rapports. Ouant a la correctioii, il esl
"de fait qu'elle ira jainais etti portije si loin dans aiicuns fidition ancienne ou coutemporaine. Etcomment en serait-il
aulrement , apres loutes les pcines et loiilcs les di/penses que nous subissons pour arriver a purger nos ('preuves de
loules faules'? L'habitude, en typographie, merac daiis les raeilleures maisons, est de nc corriger que deux (jpreuves
et d'en conf(Jrer une trolsieme avec la seeonde, sans avoir pri^pariS cn rien le manu.scrit dc raiilcur.
Dans les Aleliers Cnllioliqui^s la dilfi^rence est pr.esque incommensurable. Au nioyen de correctcurs blanchis sous
le barnais et dout le coup d'ail lypographique est sans piliii pour les fautes, on comracnce par pr(;>parer la copie d'un
liout a Tautre sans en excepler uu seul mot. On lit cnsuite cn premierc (!'preuve avec la copie aiiisi pr(!par(ie. On lit
iMi seconde dc la ineme maiiiere, mais en collationnant avec la prenii6re. On fait la mime chose en tiercc, en colla-
lionnant avec la seconde. On agit de nieme en quarle, en collationnant avec la tierce. On renonvelle la infrae op6-
Talion en quinte, en collalioiinant avec la quarle Ces collationnemenls ont pour bul de voir si aucune des faules
signalees ai bnreau par MM. lcs correcleurs, sur la raarge des i^preuves, n'a echappii a MM. les corrigeurs sur le
niarbre cllc ra6lal. Apres ces cinq leclurcs cnlii^res contr6l(5es l'unc par Tautre, cl en dehors de la prd-paratiun
ci-dessus meiitionn(;e,vient une rcvision, el souveiilil cn vieiit dcux ou trois; puis Ton cliche. l.c rlichagc opiir^^S par
consi^queut la purel6 ilu texte se trouvanl immobilis(}c, on fait, avec la copie, une nouvelle lecture d'un boiit de Vti-
preuvft a rautrc, on se livre a une nouvelle riivision, et lc lirage n'arrive qu'apri»ces innombrables pr(!'caulions.
Aussi y a t il i Montrouge des e()rreclcurs de loutes les iialions et en plus grand nomhre que dans vingl-cinq
imprimeries de Paris reunies Aussi eiicorc, la correction y coiltc-t-clle autan; que la composiiion, landis qirailleurs
I
elle ne eoilte qne le dixiiune Aussi enfin, bicn quc l'assertion puisse paraitre liinu^Taire, revactilude obienue par

compare, en clfet, n'importe quelles feuilles de leurs edilions avcc cclles des nolres qui leur correspoudent, en grcc
coiiime en Utiu, on sc convaincra que riiivraisemblable esl une r(jalil(j.
I)'ailleurs, ces savants (jminenls, pUis prSoccupiis du sens des tcxtes quc dc la parlie lypographiqne et n'etant
poiiit correcleurs de profession, lisaient, non ce que portaient les epreiives, mais ce qiii devait s'y trouver, leur
iiaute iiitelligeiice suppli''ant aux faules dc Pijdilion. Ue plus les Bi'ii(jdictins, comme les Ji5s'iitcs, opiiraicnt presque
toujours sur des manuscrils, cause perpijtuelle de la inultiplicit(5 des fautes, pcndant que les Aleliers Callwliqucs,
doiii le propre est surlout de ressusciter la Tradilion, n'opercnt le pliis souvcnt quc siir drs imprini(53.
Lc It. P. Ue Buch, Jijsuite Bollandiste dc Bruxelles, nous icrivait. 11 y a quelqiie lcmps, iravoir pu Irouver en
dix-liuit niois d'etuilc, Uiie seule fuule dans nolre Palroloqie latinc. M. Deiiziiigcr, professeur de TlnJologic ii rilni-

est riisolu de se livrer jusqu'a la fin a une op6ration longuc, penible et coOteuse, savoir, la rinision enliere et
universelle de ses innorabrablcs clichi-s. Ainsi cliacun de ses volumes, au fur ct ;i mesure qu'il les reniet sous prcsse,

somiiie qui ne saurait i'trc moindre d'iin demj niillion dc francs est consacree a cet importaiit conlride. De cetle
