Réforme éducative et politique parlementaire en France (1753–1783)

In the second half of the eighteenth century, debates on school reform were recurrent. The parlements, and particularly the Paris parlement, took part in them and became involved in school issues, notably at the time of the ban placed on the Jesuits. This parliamentary intervention can be explained by a Gallican attitude and a Jansenist bias. The members of the parlements favoured a system of education that would be national, moral and dual. La Chalotais, Guyton de Morveau and Rolland d'Erceville were the theorists of these proposed reforms. The involvement of the parlements did not upset the traditional cursus studiorum, but it betokened both a political and a social ambition. It also amounted to an intervention by lay authorities in an area hitherto reserved to Church authorities, and thus to a moment in the process of separation between Church and State that would expand during the French Revolution
