Résumé anglais Georges Nivat, History of Belyan "teratogenesis" (the relations between Emilij Medtner and Andrej Belyj). The article is based on numerous extracts of correspondence that Belyj and Emilij Medtner exchanged throughout their chequered relations from 1902 to 1915. Critic of music, founder of the Musaget editions, Medtner (who wrote under the pen name of Vol'fing) had played an important part in the cultural life of Moscow, especially from 1909 to 1915. Furthermore, his intellectual relations with the poet Andrej Belyj had an important influence on the work of the latter. Obedient to the entropy of Belyj 's imaginary world, Medtner's image is slowly degraded in Belyj 's vision and the "monster" Medtner takes its place in the memoirs written by Belyj during the years 20 to 30 in the gallery of zoomorphic beings created by his imagination.
