Description

This scholarly examination of Georges Cuvier's lifetime explores the political tensions and intellectual dynamics of Restoration France through the lens of one of history's most influential naturalists. Cuvier's career, built during the Directory and Empire periods, exemplifies the complex relationship between France's emerging intellectual elite and the broader political structure of the era. The work, originally published in 1984, investigates how Cuvier maintained his dual roles as both politician and leading naturalist, revealing the power wielded by the French intellectual establishment and its connections to the nation's political framework. Part of the Routledge Library Editions: Revolution series, this volume provides essential insights into post-revolutionary French society, the nature of scientific authority, and the personal struggles that shaped one of the period's most prominent figures.
