English summary: Tome IV (vol. 5) of the Hermogenian Corpus Rhetoricum is dedicated to the second book of this corpus, a treatise on style, derived from a treatise on the Progymnasmata, which deals with invention. The text, which deals with the stylistic categories of the discourse, is supplemented here by prolegomena and synopses. The doctrine of style that the Hermogenian expose identifies with is of 2nd century AD tradition. The core of its subject is derived from numerous monographs dedicated to the orators of the classic era. However, it is the ancient theory of virtues of narration that allows for an organization of the subject and a characterization of style. This volume represents the exposes of the new doctrine (prior to Hermogenus) through the apocryphal treatises attributed to the Aelius Aristides. French text. French description: Le tome IV (vol. 5) du Corpus rhetoricum hermogenien est consacre au deuxieme des livres authentiques de ce corpus, le traite sur le style, venant apres un traite sur les Progymnasmata , un traite sur les Etats de cause et un traite sur l' Invention . Le texte du traite sur Les categories stylistiques du discours est accompagne ici, comme dans la tradition manuscrite, de Prolegomenes et de Synopses . La doctrine du style a laquelle se rattache l'expose d'Hermogene est de tradition recente (IIe s. ap. J.-C.). Elle tire l'essentiel de sa matiere des nombreuses monographies consacrees alors aux orateurs de l'epoque classique. Cependant la structure qui organise la matiere et qui permet de caracteriser le style est heritee de l'ancienne theorie des vertus de la narration, qu'elle continue et amplifie. Les exposes de la nouvelle doctrine anterieurs a Hermogene sont representes pour nous par les traites apocryphes attribues a Aelius Aristide ( Arts rhetoriques I et II, edites aux Belles Lettres, Paris 2002) et consacres au discours politique (orateurs dans les genres deliberatif et judiciaire, representes principalement par Demosthene) et au discours simple (autres prosateurs, representes principalement par Xenophon). Plutot que de parler de vertus, Hermogene parle de formes (ideai) du style. Il en compte vingt, sept principales et treize de second rang: clarte (purete, nettete), grandeur (noblesse, rudesse, vehemence, eclat, vigueur, expansion), beaute, vivacite, ethos (naivete, saveur, piquant, moderation, severite), sincerite, habilete. Ces categories du style elles-memes sont faites de sept composants: la pensee et le mode de sa presentation, et l'expression: mots, figures, cola, assemblage des mots, pause (et le rythme qui en decoule). La caracterisation du style obtenue grace a cette grille de reference est a deux fins: apprecier la qualite des textes et pouvoir soi-meme produire de tels textes. Hermogene lui-meme propose une application de sa methode dans un dernier developpement consacre aux styles individuels: il caracterise ainsi le style de Demosthene et des plus grands orateurs, de Platon et des plus grands prosateurs, notamment des historiens, d'Homere enfin. Le traite d'Hermogene est reste jusqu'a l'aube de l'epoque moderne le livre de reference, avec celui de Quintilien, pour l'etude du style.
