Représenter la nation au siècle des Lumières (1715-1789)
Publication type: Book
Author:Huchette (Jocelyn)
Abstract: A myth which has become attached to the eighteenth century, “French gaiety” was, for Voltaire's contemporaries, a literary and anthropological stereotype. By way of it, the approach taken here allows us to follow the progressive consecration of national representation in the field of law.
