Description
Il y a bien longtemps, la Terre n'était pas ronde. Elle était plate comme une assiette, ceinturée par le fleuve Océan et chapeautée par la voûte céleste. Au VIe siècle avant J.-C., en Grèce, cette image n'a plus que quelques années à vivre. Sous l'impulsion d'une poignée d'hommes, tout à la fois philosophes, géomètres et astronomes, la vision du monde va changer. Au carrefour de l'histoire, de la mythologie, de la philosophie et de la science, ce récit est celui d'une aventure humaine, dont l'ampleur s'apparente à une véritable re-création du monde.
