520 What would the Enlightenment look like from the
perspective of artistes, the learned artisans with esprit,
who presented themselves in contrast to philosophers,
savants, and routine-bound craftsmen? Making a radical
change of historical protagonists, the author places the
mechanical arts and the world of making at the heart of
the Enlightenment. At a time of great colonial, commercial,
and imperial concerns, artistes planned encyclopedic
projects and sought an official role in the administration
of the French state. The Société des Arts, which they
envisioned as a state institution that would foster
France's colonial and economic expansion, was the msot
ambitious expression of their collective aspirations. This
work provides the first in-depth study of the Société, and
demonstrates its legacy in scientific programs, academies,
and the making of Diderot and D'Alembert's Encyclopédie.
Through insightful analysis of textual, visual, and
material sources, the author provides a ground-breaking
perspective on the politics of writing on the mechanical
arts and the development of key Enlightenment concepts
such as improvement, utility, and progress.
