Reviews

Review - French Le vegetarisme et le veganisme sont en general percus comme des regimes ou modes de vie apparus en France tres recemment. Ces phenomenes seraient en outre etrangers a notre tradition, juge-t-on d'ordinaire. Cet ouvrage montre que le vegetarisme a en realite ete envisage, prone et meme defendu par un nombre important d'ecrivains et de savants francais du XVIIIe siecle: Rousseau, Bernardin de Saint-Pierre ou Condorcet, par exemple, mais aussi Maupertuis, Sade et Voltaire. Grace a eux, le siecle des Lumieres constitue une etape importante de la longue histoire du vegetarisme occidental. Cette etape a ete longtemps ignoree. Elle ne peut plus l'etre desormais.
