%X Lorsque le lecteur d¨¦couvre au chant III des Argonautiques d¡¯Apollonios de Rhodes l¡¯espace du   paysage urbain   colque, au fur et ¨¤ mesure de la progression visuelle des personnages, se dessine mentalement tout un espace litt¨¦raire fait de r¨¦miniscences hom¨¦riques. L¡¯espace v¨¦g¨¦tal semble compos¨¦ d¡¯un bouquet d¡¯intertextes de nature endog¨¨ne tandis que l¡¯architecture palatiale combine structure archa que et ornements hell¨¦nistiques. Nulle trace d¡¯exotisme donc, mais un espace compos¨¦ de r¨¦f¨¦rents grecs typiques. Du fait de ces r¨¦f¨¦rents litt¨¦raires, la construction de l¡¯espace palatial urbain emprunte sa configuration m¨ºme au type d¡¯¨¦criture po¨¦tique sollicit¨¦ par le po¨¨te ¨¦pique : la r¨¦¨¦criture. Comment comprendre alors que le palais d¡¯Ai¨¦t¨¨s puisse ¨ºtre ¨¤ l¡¯image du palais du souverain grec hell¨¦nistique, image id¨¦ale d¡¯une architecture s¡¯inscrivant dans l¡¯ordre divin ? Il faut voir ici non seulement la mise en image, l¡¯illustration concr¨¨te via l¡¯architecture et, partant, le   paysage urbain   qui se singularise par sa nature hybride, de la volont¨¦ de rapprocher Orient et Occident, mais aussi et surtout les moyens m¨ºmes de cette mise en  uvre. Le palais et son jardin ne seraient alors qu¡¯une promesse, un prototype d¡¯un mod¨¨le id¨¦al ¨¤ ¨¦tendre, grandeur nature, sur l¡¯ensemble du territoire colque, et de l¡¯o koum¨¨ne tout enti¨¨re. When the reader of the third book of Apollonius of Rhodes discovers, in the course of the characters¡¯ visual progression, the space of a Colchian ¡°urban landscape¡±, s/he mentally creates a literary space made of Homeric recollections. The garden space seems composed of a bouquet of intertexts of endogenous nature, whereas the palatial architecture combines archaic structure with hellenistic ornamentation. So no trace of the exotic, but a space composed of typical Greek references. As a result of these literary references, the construction of palatial urban space borrows its own configuration from the type of poetic writing the epic poet himself solicits: re-writing. How else can one explain that the palace of Aeetes can be the image of a hellenistic Greek royal palace, the perfect image of an architecture that inscribes itself into a divine order? One should see here not only the reconfiguration, the concrete illustration through the archictecture and, consequently, the urban ¡°landscape¡± of such an unusual hybrid character, as a result of the wish to reconcile East and West, but also, perhaps especially, the means of its implementation. The palace and garden would then only be a promise, an ideal prototype to be extended, on a
