Version corrigée incluant en préface l'exposé donné lors de la soutenance.In this thesis, we study three topics which appeared central to us in the Cartesian Geometry: the Pappus' problem, the problem of tangents and normals, and a problem of gnomonic known under the name of Problema Astronomicum. By "Cartesian Geometry", we understand the corpus formed not only by the Geometry, published in 1637, but also by the Cartesian Correspondence and the two Latin editions directed by Frans van Schooten, published respectively in 1649 and 1659-1661. We study the genesis of the theory of geometrical curves defined by algebraic equations in particular through the controversies which appear in the Cartesian correspondence: the controversy with Roberval...
