On the 14th of August 1941, a Polish monk named Maximilian Maria Kolbe was murdered in Auschwitz. Kolbe's life had been remarkable. Fiercely intelligent and driven, he founded a movement of Catholicism and spent several years in Nagasaki, ministering to the 'hidden Christians' who had emerged after centuries of oppression. A Polish nationalist as well as a monk, he gave sanctuary to fleeing refugees and his death was no less remarkable: he volunteered to die, saving the life of a fellow prisoner. It was an act that profoundly transformed the lives of two Japanese men.

Entre biographie et essai, le livre de Jean-Pierre Rioux, salué par la critique et succès d'édition, évoque l'orateur hors pair, le philosophe, l'intellectuel et l'historien, le défenseur des droits de l'homme, l'homme de la paix, l'adversaire du colonialisme. Les questions d'aujourd'hui auxquelles le premier mort de l'été 1914 avait donné sa réponse continuent de nous hanter. Comment ne pas trahir quand on est au pouvoir ? Comment lire une société d'inégalités ? Comment récuser le désordre établi si l'on n'assume pas l'histoire et l'héritage ? Que serait un avenir sans morale et sans religion ?
