	Ernest Renan - LoveToKnow 1911 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		ERNEST RENAN (1823-1892), French philosopher and Orientalist, was born on the 27th of February 1823 at Treguier.
		His father's people were of the fisher-clan of Renans or Ronans; his grandfather, having made a small fortune by his fishing smack, bought a house at Treguier and settled there, and his father, captain of a small cutter and an ardent Republican, married the daughter of Royalist trading-folk from the neighbouring town of Lannion.
		Renan began to perceive the essential contradiction between the metaphysics which he studied and the faith that he professed, but an appetite for truths that can be verified restrained his scepticism.

		Renan finds that certain portions of the Gospel "according to John" were added later; that the entire twenty-first chapter is an interpolation; also, that many places bear the traces of erasures and corrections.
		Undoubtedly Renan gave an honest transcript of his mind, the road his thought had followed, the reasons in their order that had occurred to him, the criticisms born of thought, and the qualifications, softening phrases, children of old sentiments and emotions that had not entirely passed away.
		Renan was a man of most excellent temper; candid; not striving for victory, but for truth; conquering, as far as he could, the old superstitions; not entirely free, it may be, but believing himself to be so.

	Ernest Renan Biography \| Encyclopedia of World Biography
		A French author, philologist, archeologist, and founder of comparative religion, Ernest Renan (1823-1892) influenced European thought in the second half of the 19th century through his numerous writings.
		Ernest Renan grew up in the mystical, Catholic French province of Brittany, where Celtic myths combined with his mother's deeply experienced Catholicism led this sensitive child to believe he was destined for the priesthood.
		In his Recollections of Childhood and Youth (1883) he recounted the spiritual crisis he went through as his growing interest in scientific studies of the Bible eventually made orthodoxy unacceptable; he was soon won over to the new "religion of science," a conversion fostered by his friendship with the chemist P. Berthelot.

		It was also on this date, February 27, 1823, that French scholar Joseph Ernest Renan was born in Trier, Brittany, to a Breton father and a Gascon mother.
		Although Renan was a Pantheist with Agnostic tendencies, he would still refer to "God" and the divinity (in the Romantic sense) of Jesus in his writings.
		While decrying his skepticism with the vehemence of the intellectually vulnerable, even his detractors had to admit, "Renan's personal life was irreproachable." Renan** died in Paris on 2 October 1892 at age 69.

		ERNEST RENAN WAS BORN IN 1823 AT TREGUIER IN BRITTANY.
		It is certain, Renan thinks, that the "Supper" was not first instituted on that last evening; even in the second Galilaean period He must have practised with His followers the mystic rite of the Breaking of Bread, which in some way symbolised His death.
		Renan professes to depict the Christ of the Fourth Gospel, though he does not believe in the authenticity or the miracles of that Gospel.

	Ernest Renan, "What is a Nation?"
		That is, Renan appears to agree with Hobsbawm, although R. thinks they date back perhaps to the Treaty of Verdun of 843 (which, according to the Columbia Encyclopedia, “represented the beginning of dissolution of Charlemagne’s empire into political units that foreshadowed the nations of Western Europe.
		Renan writes later [204] that “Nowadays it is a good, and even a necessary, thing that nations should exist” and thus appears to be arguing that it is justified to create a false history as an exercise in nation-building, an odd thing for someone who elsewhere praises “reason, justice, truth” [197] so highly.
		We are told by certain political theorists that a nation is, above all, a dynasty representing a former conquest that has been at first accepted, and then forgotten, by the mass of the people.

		He provides colourful evocations of Rouen, with its medieval streets and modern textile manufactures; of Paris in the 1850s, when Baron Haussmann demolished large slums and created broad new arteries; of Vichy as it was being developed into a fashionable spa.
		He leads us on excursions into various French institutions, including literary gatherings such as the Magny dinners, which featured rich food and cacophonic exchanges (when they could hear each other) between such luminaries as Sainte-Beuve, Hippolyte Taine, Ernest Renan, the Goncourt brothers, and Flaubert himself.
		Every biography of Flaubert must rely on his abundant correspondence, and Brown makes especially good use of the extraordinary letters that Flaubert wrote to his mistress Louise Colet during the years he was labouring on Madame Bovary.
