Abstract: "Angels rebelling against God come down to earth, precisely in Paris, to prepare a coup d'etat that will re-establish on the throne of heaven the one who is sometimes called the devil, but who is the angel of light, the symbol of liberating knowledge... The tribulations of the angels in the Paris of the Third Republic are the occasion of a ferocious social criticism. Finally, Lucifer will renounce to dethrone God, for in this way Lucifer would become God, and would lose his influence on the liberated thought".
