Les Neuch\u00e2telois sont-ils suisses depuis toujours\u00a0? Oui, r\u00e9pond la Chronique des Chanoines<\/em>, t\u00e9moignage de l\u2019histoire m\u00e9di\u00e9vale de Neuch\u00e2tel. Un texte devenu si populaire sous la jeune R\u00e9publique neuch\u00e2teloise issue de 1848, \u00e0 la recherche de mythes fondateurs pour affirmer son identit\u00e9 helv\u00e9tique, que lorsque l\u2019historien Arthur Piaget remet son authenticit\u00e9 en cause en 1895, cela lance un v\u00e9ritable scandale. Mais pourquoi cette mystification\u00a0?<\/p>\n

Ce livre est une plong\u00e9e dans les papiers personnels du redoutable faussaire \u00e0 l\u2019origine de ces textes\u00a0: Abram de Pury (1724-1807), proche ami de Rousseau, conseiller d\u2019\u00c9tat tumultueux et disgraci\u00e9 suite \u00e0 un conflit au sujet de la fiscalit\u00e9 du Pays de Neuch\u00e2tel.<\/p>\n

\u00c0 la recherche de ses m\u00e9thodes de travail, l\u2019auteur entra\u00eene le lecteur \u00e0 la d\u00e9couverte des impressionnantes recherches du faussaire, sa mise en place minutieuse d\u2019un r\u00e9seau de textes apocryphes se soutenant les uns les autres, brouillant les pistes par de subtils artifices de mystification litt\u00e9raire. C\u2019est aussi l\u2019occasion de comprendre les motivations du personnage et de relier cette vaste entreprise \u00e0 un contexte et \u00e0 une orientation politique bien pr\u00e9cise\u00a0: l\u2019inclusion de Neuch\u00e2tel dans le renouvellement d\u2019alliance franco-suisse en 1777. En effet, il s\u2019agit pour Abram de Pury de d\u00e9fendre le caract\u00e8re suisse de Neuch\u00e2tel et de tenter de rapprocher la Principaut\u00e9 du Corps helv\u00e9tique par la mise en sc\u00e8ne d\u2019une histoire o\u00f9 les Neuch\u00e2telois ont particip\u00e9 aux grands \u00e9v\u00e9nements de la Suisse. On s\u2019aper\u00e7oit \u00e9galement de l\u2019existence d\u2019un parti politique pro-helv\u00e9tique au sein de l\u2019\u00e9lite neuch\u00e2teloise de la fin du XVIIIe<\/sup> si\u00e8cle, \u0153uvrant en marge des instructions re\u00e7ues du Roi de Prusse.<\/p>\n

On ne savait plus que croire. Ce livre permet de faire la part du vrai et du faux dans l\u2019ancienne histoire neuch\u00e2teloise.<\/p>\n
