English summary: Appearing late in metaphysics, existence became one of the unavoidable major points of philosophy. This volume traces the philosophical history of existence; born in late Antiquity to singularize the being of Christ, developed in the Middle Ages to understand the being of a created world, existence became in the Enlightenment the being of Man. French description: A la difference de nombreux concepts herites d'Aristote, l'existence fait en metaphysique une entree aussi discrete que tardive, avant de devenir un theme a ce point majeur qu'aucune philosophie n'a pu s'en dispenser, en depit d'un paradoxe constitutif: l'existence n'est-elle pas l'autre absolu de la pensee? Pourquoi l'existence s'est-elle constamment maintenue, au-dela du questionnement metaphysique qui fut son horizon medieval, jusqu'a constituer un des concepts fondamentaux de toute anthropologie? Pour repondre, une histoire de l'existence dans la longue duree s'imposait, qui entreprenne d'en relever les mutations principales: nee dans l'Antiquite tardive pour singulariser l'etre du Christ, developpee au Moyen Age pour apprehender l'etre du monde cree, l'existence qualifie, aux temps des Lumieres, l'etre de l'homme. Le premier volet de cette histoire complexe analyse l'emergence de l'existence aux cotes de l'etre, puis en concurrence avec lui. Il retrace le lent processus medieval de son incorporation a la philosophie, de Marius Victorinus a la scolastique moderne: existe ce qui se pose a partir de son origine, puis hors de sa cause. Ainsi l'existence fut-elle premierement exposee.
