		Tiphaigne de la Roche: Modéles de I'imaginaire au XVIIIe siècle.
		Tiphaigne de la Roche's classical utopia, Histoire des Galligènes (1765), was reprinted in 1979 by Slatkine (see my review in SFS No. 23), but his other philosophical tales have not been republished since the end of the 18th century.
		De la Roche, a Norman physician and polygraph, is a typical sample of those minor enthusiasts of the Enlightenment whose unbridled spirit of "philosophical" conjecture and speculation provokes alternatively admiration and amazement.

	Thackrey Library :: Introductions:: 18th Century
		But de Navarre does have a good deal to say about the qualities of Bordeaux wines; and not the least interesting part of what he has to say is, that what he has to say bears so little resemblance to anything we are now supposed to think.
		And I've added to that de Navarre's extensive discussion of soils, since this has blossomed into such a wonderfully profitable obsession of the Bordelais since his time, and certainly in our own; and his related discussion of grape varieties, particularly since so much other information of interest is scattered about within all of this.
		De Calonne is wonderfully complete in his description of how his vendangeuses are paid, what they are given to eat & drink, and generally how the details of the harvest - and for that matter of the ban de vendanges - are conducted, information nearly impossible to come by elsewhere.

	First Steps Towards Photography
		While up to the end of the eighteenth century the problem of drawing by light was still an unsolved one, it is curious to note that, among the hints and foreshadowings of photography that have been collected, one Frenchman made so apt a guess at sun-picturing that it amounted almost to a prophecy.
		The genius in question, Tiphaigne de la Roche, in the year 1760 published a book which he called " Giphantie " (an anagram of his name), and in which, amongst other Munchausenisms, he describes a method whereby a strange people, in whose land he is sojourning, produce pictures of objects.
		It is hardly possible to read this strange foreshadowing of the photographic art without feeling that De la Roche had been gazing upon the magic pencillings of the camera obscura, and that in imagination he had realised the problem which investigators a few years later were trying to solve.

		Amilec ou la graine d’hommes est un petit roman satirico-scientifique, paru sans nom d’auteur en 1753, deux fois réédité et augmenté en l’espace d’une année, et souvent lu (à tort) comme une manière de traité camouflé d’alchimie.
		Las d’étudier dans de gros livres les principes de la génération, le narrateur s’endort sur ses grimoires et reçoit la visite d’Amilec, génie présidant à la multiplication de l’espèce humaine.
		Cet étrange et sélénite essai de « génétique » que l’on doit à Tiphaigne est ici présenté dans le texte du retirage de 1754 de la première édition, accompagné de sept dessins d’Emmanuelle Dufossez et d’une notice de Nycéphore Burladon.

		De Bergerac also lavishly detailed other fanciful "methods" of space travel, but undoubtedly these were included in the novel purely to obfuscate the nature of the real means employed to reach the Moon, and perhaps also to make the book more entertaining, and therefore more commercial.
		Another remarkable feature of De Bergerac's account, which gives it additional weight, is his elaborate description of the alien societies that he encountered on his journeys, such as that of the Bird-Men who live on the "dark side" of the Sun and hate men.
		In the early 1790s, the noted utopist, playwright, and journalist Louis-Abel Beffroy de Reigny, better known as "Cousin Jacques", wrote a number of plays taking place on other planets, but these were merely satires, bitter-sweet dreams of what once was or might have been...

		This process improved definition and allowed an image to be sharply focused on a piece of ground glass, allowing the operator to trace a picture on a sheet of paper laid over the glass.
		M. Daguerre has found the way to fix the images which paint themselves within a camera obscura, so that these images are no longer transient reflections of objects, but their fixed and everlasting impress, which like a painting or a drawing, can be taken away from the presence of the objects (in Newhall, 1980: 17).
		Moreover, in a statement to the Académie des Sciences organized on January 7, 1839, physicist Jean-Baptiste Biot praised Daguerre for putting at the disposal of scientists an "artificial retina" (in Gernsheim, 1968: 84).
