  • Huang Conservés À La Bibliothèque Nationale : Un Fichier De Jacques Bacot Et Autres Documents
    Pour servir à la numérisation des manuscrits tibétains de Dun- huang conservés à la Bibliothèque Nationale : un fichier de Jacques Bacot et autres documents Anne Chayet ien souvent, et surtout depuis que l'informatique facilite la constitu- Btion des répertoires et leur communication, les fichiers manuels ont été détruits après la publication du catalogue ou de l'ouvrage dont ils formaient la base. Le fichier présenté ici, que le tibétologue Jacques Bacot constitua sans doute après avoir établi la liste initiale des manuscrits tibé- tains de Dunhuang,1 n'aurait pas dû subsister, en principe, puisque l'inven- taire de ces manuscrits a été publié par Marcelle Lalou.2 De fait, il n'est ni complet, ni continu et les raisons de sa conservation, dans cet état, n'apparaissent pas clairement aujourd'hui.3 On peut néan- moins penser qu'il est simplement le témoin d'un travail de vérification laissé inachevé par Marcelle Lalou, dont les corrections apparaissent sur plusieurs fiches, et qu'il était destiné à disparaître dans sa totalité. Il s'agis- sait en tout cas indéniablement d'un fichier de travail, l'état inégal des fiches et le défaut de systématisation des rédactions sont éloquents à cet égard. On ne peut donc attendre une rigueur absolue des 611 fiches qu'il compte. La composition du fichier n'est homogène ni dans ses formats, ni dans ses numérotations. Il semble être la réunion de fiches provenant d'opérations différentes,4 car il serait sans doute excessif de parler de reliquat de ces op- érations. La présence de deux formats de fiches, marque vraisemblable d'une re- composition tardive du fichier, plutôt que d'un usage simultané et indiff- érent,5 n'apporte pas de réponse précise aux questions qu'on peut se poser sur son origine et sa date.
