English Summary: Colored by strong emotions, deep reflections, funny conversations, fantastic ecstasies and pathetic disenchantments, the memoirs of Hector Berlioz paint a vivid and striking portrait of this revolutionary composer, this extraordinary traveler, this born writer. Although the work has already known several editions, this is the very first to offer a complete critical apparatus: preceded by an introduction which retraces the history of the manuscript and its publication, an identification of all the people and all the works mentioned in the text, as well as the elucidation of events which, for the reader of today, may seem obscure. This publication fills the long felt absence of a critical edition of Hector Berlioz's most important literary work. French description: Colores de fortes emotions, de reflexions profondes, de conversations drolatiques, d'extases fantastiques et de desenchantements pathetiques, les Memoires d'Hector Berlioz brossent un portrait des plus vifs et des plus saisissants de ce compositeur revolutionnaire, de ce voyageur extraordinaire, de cet ecrivain ne. Bien que l'ouvrage ait connu deja plusieurs editions, celle-ci est la toute premiere a offrir un appareil critique complet: precedee d'une introduction qui retrace l'histoire du manuscrit et de sa publication, d'une liste explicative des sources et d'une chronologie sommaire, elle propose l'identification de toutes les personnes et de toutes les oeuvres mentionnees dans le texte ainsi que l'elucidation d'evenements qui, pour le lecteur d'aujourd'hui, peuvent paraitre obscurs. Les notes, fondees sur les travaux de recherche effectues durant ces dernieres annees, entre autres les editions scientifiques des oeuvres musicales et de la correspondance generale de Berlioz, contiennent de nombreuses variantes entre le texte principal et ses sources - car les Memoires, aussi bien structures que le fameux clavier est bien tempere, representent une mosaique des ecrits du musicien qui s'etendent de sa premiere maturite au seuil de sa vieillesse. Cette publication comble l'absence, depuis longtemps ressentie, d'une edition critique de l'oeuvre litteraire la plus importante d'Hector Berlioz.
