Résumé 

Cet article s’emploie à réfuter la thèse à la mode selon laquelle à date ancienne il n’existerait pas d’école confucianiste à proprement parler, d’une part en démontant les arguments des tenants de cette théorie et en second lieu en proposant une nouvelle lecture des documents à notre disposition.

Abstract 

This article advocates the refutation of the fashionable thesis that in the pre- and early imperial China there was no proper Confucian school. It does so by scrutinizing the arguments put forward by its propagators and by proposing a new reading of the available primary sources.
