In this innovative study of French political culture, the author
re-examines the origins of modern republicanism through the
writings and political practices of five key nineteenth-century
intellectuals: Jules Barni, Charles Dupont-White, Emile Littre,
Eugene Pelletan, and Etienne Vacherot. Drawing on a range of
archival and published sources this study explores the
transformation of republican ideology, and stresses the continuing
influences of Saint-Simonism, socialism, doctrinaire liberalism,
and neo-Kantianism on republican thinking during this period. The
book sheds new light on French republican conceptions of good
citizenship, the meaning of patriotism, the role of the state, the
value of individual liberty, and the place of education and
religion in public and private life. Offering challenging insights
into modern French politics as well as the history of political
thought, Intellectual Founders of the Republic opens up new
perspectives on republican ideology and political practice.
