What Killed Théodore Rilliet de Saussure? Censorship and the Old Regime in France, 1769–1789
Jonathan Israel, Revolutionary Ideas
Priests of the French Revolution
All of the world’s priests are in perfect agreement, wrote the atheist Baron d’Holbach in his 1768-published Théologie portative, that the trick of their profession consists in freely dispensing fear in the anticipation that hope might later be delivered at a cost. Ouch! And if the French Enlightenment’s leading lights often held men of the cloth in low esteem, many of their revolutionary successors rejoiced in actively diminishing the clergy’s r…
The Enlightenment in practice
Ausschnitte Aus Eden/Extracts from Eden
Centrally informed through the application of photography, my multi-media practice has evolved to one conversant in ethnography and the principles of a critically reflexive practice. Ethnography can be viewed as an epistemological position or “a commitment”, as Zsuzsa Gille states, “to study an issue at hand by understanding it from the perspectives of people whose lives are tied up with or affected by it”. The thematic concerns within my researc…
Beyond the Forbidden Best-Sellers of Pre-Revolutionary France
Robert Darnton's acclaimed 1995 work on the late eighteenth-century francophone illegal book trade, The forbidden best-sellers of pre-revolutionary France , has become one of the most cited and studied texts in its field.

Atheism, Religion and Enlightenment in Pre-Revolutionary Europe
An investigation into the influence of, and reaction to, the atheistic writings of the baron d'Holbach.
Interpreting sea salt records from Antarctic ice cores
Mettons Toujours Londres
The existence of a Christian Enlightenment in eighteenth-century francophone Europe has started to gain some recognition in recent studies. Using a case study of the letters Georg-Jonathan von Holland sent to the Société Typographique de Neuchâtel while in the process of publishing his refutation of the baron d’Holbach's materialist Système de la nature, this article confirms this idea and examines the underlying conditions that led to such funda…
The Breathing Factory
In 2005, the Republic of Ireland, was defined as the ‘most globalised economy in the world’ (IDA Ireland). The significance of this position is amplified by the fact that the South of Ireland never experienced an Industrial Revolution compared to other western European countries (O'Brien 1999). In the absence of significant audio and visual representation of labour, global labour practices and globalised industrial space in the context of this ac…
