Résumé anglais Michel GRABAR, Draft of an Ivanovian theory of culture in the Correspondence across a room. Sheltered, in 1920, in a "convalescent home for scientific and literary workers" in the outskirts of Moscow, Viacheslav Ivanov and Mikhail Gerschenson exchanged a dozen of letters from two comers of a room which they were forced to share. Such is the origin of the Correspondence. This splendid and arduous text deserves an attentive study because of the in- depth debate that it constitutes on the nature and the foundation of culture in which the radicalism of Enlightenment as exposed by Gerschenson clashes with Ivanov's humanist requirements of memory. This study is endeavoured here with complete respect for the logic of a highly intertextual text, in which one letter replies to another, and an explicit or implicit reference engages a dialogue with another reference.
