The article examines the question of the authorship and generic classification of La Seine et ses bords (1836). This work is commonly misattributed to Charles Nodier, but the most likely author is Alexandre Mure de Pélanne, who in 1835 published a similar essay on the Saône River. The comparison of both works shows a clear difference in their perspectives: La Saône et ses bords, with an emphasis on the historical context, meets the generic criteria of album pittoresque (picturesque album), whereas a focus on topography and hydrology of La Seine et ses bords brings it closer to the genre of mémoire géographique (geographical memoir). The scientific scope of La Seine et ses bords also distinguishes it from Nodier’s and Taylor’s Voyages pittoresques et romantiques dans l’ancienne France, the most famous cycle of Romantic journeys through France.

The works of Charles Bonnet illustrate the contribution of imagination to research in natural history in the second half of the 18th century. In his Palingénésie philosophique (1769), Bonnet uses images and metaphors rooted in the philosophical and literary imagery of the Enlightenment to describe the evolution of life. This juxtaposition of scientific and literary discourses did not prevent Bonnet from being regarded as a forefather of modern biology by historians of science.

Rotifers and tardigrades, microscopic animals discovered in the 18th century, have exceptional abilities to survive in hostile conditions. Exposing them to desiccation, extreme temperatures, and vacuum, scientists wanted to determine whether these animals die and revive, or whether they preserve a trace of life in these lethal conditions. The question of boundaries of life had been the subject of scientific controversy throughout the 19th century, an example of which was the debate between L. Doyère and F.-A. Pouchet in the late 1850s. Its echoes can be found in E. About’s science-fiction novel L’Homme à l’oreille cassée (1861), in which tardigrades’ ability to revive is extrapolated to humans.

Long before the first translations of Charles Darwin’s works, evolutionary thought had been developing in France thanks to such authors as Georges‐Louis Leclerc de Buffon, Charles Bonnet and Jean‐Baptiste de Lamarck.  Although Georges Cuvier’s fixism and creationism remained the dominant scientific paradigm throughout the 19th century, writers drew their inspiration from evolutionary thought, subjecting it to lyrical and often parareligious interpretations. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate how Charles Nodier in his essay “De la palingénésie humaine et de la résurrection” and Camille Flammarion in his short stories “Clairs de lune” reinterpret different theories of evolution.

Recent work by science historians has shown that environmental awareness is not unique to our “reflexive modernity”. As early as the 15th century, human agency was envisaged as a factor of change in various climate theories which oscillated between optimism and fear of disaster. This climate awareness informed 19th century catastrophist literature which examined technoculture specific to industrial societies in terms of both its power and negative consequences. The works of Jean-Baptiste Cousin de Grainville, Alfred Bonnardot and Camille Flammarion provide an insight into how literature both appropriates and subverts the knowledge of the economy of nature and of climate, defusing fears and producing a certain kind of the environmental unconscious.

Les récents travaux des historiens des sciences ont démontré que la conscience environnementale n’est pas le propre de notre « modernité réflexive ». Dès le XVe siècle, l’agir humain est envisagé comme facteur de changement dans diverses théories du climat qui oscillent entre l’optimisme et la peur de la catastrophe. Cette conscience climatique imprègne la littérature catastrophiste qui, dès le XIXe siècle, réfléchit sur les pouvoirs et les conséquences néfastes de la technoculture propre à la société industrielle. L’étude des œuvres de Jean-Baptiste Cousin de Grainville, d’Alfred Bonnardot et de Camille Flammarion permet d’observer comment la littérature à la fois s’empare des savoirs et détourne ceux qui portent sur l’économie de la nature et sur le climat, désamorçant les peurs et produisant un certain inconscient de la crise climatique.

Charles Nodier był jednym z ważniejszych promotorów idei fraternité des arts w latach 1830, ale jego doświadczenie życia i tworzenia w artystycznych kręgach, skupiających zarazem pisarzy, malarzy i kompozytorów, nie ogranicza się tylko do prowadzenia salonu w Bibliotece Arsenału. Już we wczesnej młodości Nodier obracał się w środowisku malarzy, zbuntowanych uczniów Jacquesa-Louisa Davida, którzy na początku XIX wieku stworzyli grupę (sektę) zwaną Méditateurs. To doświadczenie zostawiło swój ślad w dziele literackim Nodiera. Jego powieść Le Peintre de Saltzbourg (1803) zdradza pewne pokrewieństwa z estetyczną doktryną Maurice’a Quai i grupy Méditateurs. Ten zapomniany epizod historii romantyzmu został przywrócony pamięci w 1832 roku dzięki ponownej publikacji powieści w Dziełach Charlesa Nodiera oraz dzięki prasie, która porównała Méditateurs do głośnej wówczas grupy Jeunes-France.

Charles Nodier was one of the leading advocates of the fraternity of artists in the 1830s, but his experience of life and work in artistic circles embracing writers, painters and composers was not limited to his own literary salon at the Arsenal. Already as a young man, Nodier moved in the circle of Méditateurs, a group started at the beginning of the 19th century by rebellious former students of Jacques-Louis David. This experience left its mark on Nodier’s work: his novel, Le Peintre de Saltzbourg (1803) reveals a certain affinity with the aesthetic doctrines of Maurice Quai and Méditateurs. This forgotten episode of the history of Romanticism was brought back to memory in 1832 by the republication of the novel in OEuvres de Charles Nodier, and by the contemporary critics, who compared Méditateurs to Jeunes-France, a popular artistic cenacle of the day.

Inspirowana Wyspą doktora Moreau H. G. Wellsa powieść Le Docteur Lerne, sous-dieu (1908) Maurice’a Renarda portretuje szalonego naukowca, który eksperymentuje na organizmach, tworząc ludzko-zwierzęco-roślinne chimery. Anachroniczna teoria łańcucha bytów zostaje poszerzona o maszyny, przedstawione jako przyszłość ewolucji ludzkości, co plasuje Lerne’a w awangardzie utworów transhumanistycznych. Artykuł ma na celu analizę powieściowych nawiązań do czysto fantastycznej i realnej historii nauki.

Inspired by H. G. Wells' The Island of Doctor Moreau, M. Renard in his Le Docteur Lerne, sous-dieu (1908) portrays a mad scientist experimenting on living organisms, creating hybrids of humans, animals and plants. Renard extends the anachronistic theory of the Chain of Being to include machines, which he sees as the future of humanity, securing the place of his Lerne in the vanguard of transumanist literature. This paper aims to examine the novel’s intertextual references to both fictional and actual history of science.

In the poem Les Fossiles (1854), Louis Bouilhet tells the story of the evolution of life. Inspired by various naturalists, he imagines the emergence of life on Earth, the birth of species, and their extinction followed by the emergence of new forms of life. The destiny of humankind is subordinate to this law of nature: humans will be supplanted by more perfect beings. The purpose of this article is to consider the influence of Charles Bonnet's palingenetic philosophy on Bouilhet from the perspective of epistemocritical methodology, allowing the identification of epistemological transfers between the work of the naturalist and that of the poet.
