Playing with Fire
Work on the material culture of the eighteenth century has shown that light was more than a metaphor. The everyday social practise of the Enlightenment reposed on a contrast between light and dark. There was a growing emphasis on brightness in clothing and furnishings, and elite homes, social venues, fashionable shops, and even the main streets were more brightly lit. Fireworks displays became more frequent and more spectacular. Furthermore, in m…
Citoyen de Paris et du monde
In January and February 2025, on the occasion of Clio’s 30th anniversary, we circulated a questionnaire among the journal’s readers. Our aim was to understand the profiles, practices and reading habits of those who read Clio. This collectively written paper, by authors of various generations, offers an initial reading and interpretation of the results of the questionnaire, allowing us to grasp the issues surrounding the evolution and the future o…

B runo B elhoste . Paris Savant
Susan Emanuel’s translation of Bruno Belhoste’s Paris Savant is very welcome. Belhoste’s book, originally published in 2011, offers a valuable survey of the scientific world of late eighteenth-century Paris, and while there is little that will be unfamiliar to specialists, much of the work it distills is detailed and available only in French. But Belhoste’s work is more than a popularization. It is representative of the new approach to the histor…
Reform Catholicism and the International Suppression of the Jesuits in Enlightenment Europe
For those who, like me, tend to dismiss conspiracy theories, this book is a healthy reminder that conspiracies do exist. Although accusations of plotting have generally been directed against the Jesuits, it was their enemies whose co-ordinated efforts, often behind the scenes, succeeded in destroying the Society of Jesus in 1773. Some of the key evidence lies in the Utrecht archives, where correspondence from across Europe testifies to the connec…
Why Didn't Paris Burn in the Seventeenth and Eighteenth Centuries
Several European cities experienced devastating fires in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, and some burned repeatedly. Paris did not. Yet there, as elsewhere, the central quarters were crowded, and wood was widely used. People relied on naked flames for heating, cooking, and lighting and for most industrial processes. This article suggests that a combination of interconnected factors explains Paris's good fortune and differentiated it fro…
Towards a fire history of European cities (late Middle Ages to late nineteenth century)
Fires are often seen as a constant in early modern European towns, changing only in the modern era when inflammable building materials replaced wood. This article argues that the incidence, nature and risk of fire shifted repeatedly over time. Fire danger was determined not only by building materials but also by forms of construction, by the everyday uses people made of flame and by wider factors such as climatic variation and shifts in world tra…
Carolyn Chappell Lougee. Facing the Revocation
In her eagerly awaited book Facing the Revocation: Huguenot Families, Faith, and the King’s Will, Carolyn Chappell Lougee uses the story of one family, the Robillard de Champagné, to explore the experience and consequences of the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes in October 1685. The story is wonderfully told, skillfully combining historical empathy with incisive, no-nonsense analysis of motives and of the consequences of individual decisions. Lo…
Confréries de métier et corporations à Paris (XVII e -XVIII e siècles)
Au XVII e siècle, les communautés de métier et leurs confréries sont en général inséparables. Elles ont souvent une administration commune, les élections ont lieu le jour de la fête du saint patron, et les fonds de la corporation paient les frais des offices religieux. Les funérailles et la célébration des fêtes religieuses font partie de la vie communautaire et de l'identité corporative. Cette inséparabilité relève d'une conception « enchantée »…
Man Is Born for Society”
“Civil society,” in the definition proposed in the introduction to this special issue, was not solely a product of the Enlightenment or of elite sociability. This article focuses on eighteenth-century confraternities in Paris and Milan to argue that these religious associations fostered the kinds of values and behaviors that most writers associate with the formation of civil society: cooperation, charity, a sense of responsibility, and peaceful i…
And London's Fire History
While it is incontestable that the Great Fire led to a new awareness and to stronger measures to prevent and to fight fires, this was not because it was the worst in a long series of serious fires, but because it was one of the first. London had no really large fires in the four centuries before 1666, but was to experience fifty or more in the following 200 years. This article asks why. Alongside the obvious facts of rapid population growth and t…
The Huguenots of Paris and the Coming of Religious Freedom, 1685–1789
How did the Huguenots of Paris survive, and even prosper, in the eighteenth century when the majority Catholic population was notorious for its hostility to Protestantism? Why, by the end of the Old Regime, did public opinion overwhelmingly favour giving Huguenots greater rights? This study of the growth of religious toleration in Paris traces the specific history of the Huguenots after Louis XIV revoked the Edict of Nantes in 1685. David Garrioc…
Huguenot Belief and Practice in Eighteenth‐Century P aris
Protestantism was illegal in eighteenth‐century F rance, yet many F rench Reformed Protestants, better known as H uguenots, managed to maintain their religion and identity until the F rench Revolution granted religious freedom. Several thousand of them lived in P aris, but remained a tiny minority in a very C atholic city. Given this context, and little access to pastors or collective worship, what kind of Protestantism did they observe? This art…

Suzanne, David, Judith, Isaac
The history of given names, and what they can tell us about individual and group identities, has attracted much attention in recent years. The existence of specifically Protestant given names is well documented in the early modern period, when they served as important markers of religious identity. This article looks at the evolution of given names in eighteenth-century Paris and the extent to which they continued to operate in this way. It sugge…

Lay‐Religious Associations, Urban Identities, and Urban Space in Eighteenth‐Century Milan
Religious life was integral to the social and political organization of eighteenth‐century Milan. The composition and character of lay‐religious activities reflect not only official hierarchies within the city but also unofficial bonds and identities, such as those of neighbourhood. They reveal the multiple identities of neighbourhood, parish, trade and family, but equally the tensions between collective forms of piety and the new religious value…

Sounds of the city
In European towns of the seventeenth, eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, the sounds people heard were very different from those of today. Yet the difference goes much deeper: whereas today we try to escape city noise, for the inhabitants of early modern towns sound served as a crucial source of information. It formed a semiotic system, conveying news, helping people to locate themselves in time and in space, and making them part of an ‘auditory…

The Bourgeois Citizen in Nineteenth-Century France
The Bourgeois Citizen in Nineteenth-Century France analyses the process by which class society developed in post-revolutionary France. Focusing on bourgeois men and on their voluntary associations, Carol E. Harrison addresses the construction of class and gender identities. In their gentlemen's clubs, learned societies, musical groups, gardening clubs, and charitable associations, bourgeois Frenchmen defined a social order in which the atomized i…

House names, shop signs and social organization in Western European cities, 1500–1900
The houses in early modern European cities almost all had names and signs. These are usually taken to be an early form of advertising, or else a way of finding one's way around the city in times before street names and numbering. This article argues that their primary purpose was to mark the individual, family or ethnic identity of the house owner or tenant. During the eighteenth century the names and signs changed in character, and by the mid-ni…
