After the divisive experience of the Revolution and the Napoleonic periods, Parisian opera and science journalists, like many of their contemporaries, tried to define a "modern" French nation. Since traditional religious and social models no longer explained their experiences, writers proposed various alternatives. Science and opera reviewers interpreted the events and trends that troubled their lives as manifestations of a problem that could be solved: they and their compatriots needed to develop a single framework within which to interpret the world. After they all came to a common sense about what values, attitudes, and behaviors defined enlightenment, they would live in a just community that respected the diversity of human talent.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a After the divisive experience of the Revolution and the Napoleonic periods, Parisian opera and science journalists, like many of their contemporaries, tried to define a "modern" French nation. Since traditional religious and social models no longer explained their experiences, writers proposed various alternatives. Science and opera reviewers interpreted the events and trends that troubled their lives as manifestations of a problem that could be solved: they and their compatriots needed to develop a single framework within which to interpret the world. After they all came to a common sense about what values, attitudes, and behaviors defined enlightenment, they would live in a just community that respected the diversity of human talent.
520 $a In each period covered in this study, journalists explicated the denotation and connotation of concepts that would prove crucial to the production of a stable, prosperous nation in which individuals could realize their humanity. By using their power to identify an object of interest, to interpret its meaning (often using familiar metaphors or parables), and to derive some truth about political, social, or cultural trends, opera and science journalists tried to differentiate the conceivable from the inconceivable, the appropriate from the inappropriate. By repeatedly explicating their conceptions of civilization, reality, and human nature, they tried to convert their definition of enlightenment into common sense. If their compatriots embraced their vision, they would draw upon their shared European heritage to elaborate their own, particularly French cultural identity.
