Genealogy and Social Status in the Enlightenment is at the
crossroads of the history of science and the social history of
cultural practices, and suggests the need for a new approach on the
significance of genealogies in the Age of Enlightenment. While
their importance has been fully recognised and extensively studied
in early modern Britain and in the Victorian period, the long
eighteenth century has been too often presented as a black hole
regarding genealogy. Enlightened values and urban sociability have
been presented as inimical to the praise of ancestry and birth. In
contrast, however, various studies on the continental or in the
American colonies, have shed light on the many uses of genealogies,
even beyond the landed elite. Whether it be in the publishing
industry, in the urban corporations, in the scientific discourses,
genealogy was used, not only as a resilient social practice, but
also as a form of reasoning, a language and a tool to include
newcomers, organise scientific and historical knowledge or to
express various emotions. This volume aims to reconsider the
flexibility of genealogical practices and their perpetual
reconfiguration to meet renewed expectations in the period. Far
from slowly vanishing under the blows of rationalism that would
have delegitimized an ancient world based on various forms of
hereditary determinism, the different contributions to this
collective work demonstrate that genealogy is a pervasive tool to
make sense of a fast-changing society.
