Begetters of Revolution? Shelburne and the Bowood Circle Reappraised
A Symposium in memory of Derek Jarrett at Sherborne School
* * *
Publicado vendredi, 02 de mars de 2007
Resumo
William Shelburne, premier marquis de Lansdowne (1737-1805), est un personnage à part dans l’histoire politique britannique : homme d’Etat, mais aussi penseur et protecteur de penseurs et de philosophes. Ce symposium qui rassemblera des intervenants français et britanniques s’attachera à retracer sa carrière politique au gouvernement ou dans l’opposition ainsi que son attitude vis-à-vis de la Révolution française. Les points suivants seront abordés : ses relations avec la France et Genève (Etienne Dumont, en particulier), son rôle lors des négociations du Traité de Paris en 1783, ses liens avec le milieu non-conformiste en Grande-Bretagne ainsi qu’avec le philosophe Jeremy Bentham. Ce symposium s’inscrit dans une réflexion plus générale sur l’histoire comparée de la France et de la Grande-Bretagne, à travers un hommage à l’historien Derek Jarrett. La rencontre prévoit également des visites du château et des jardins de Bowood.
