Abstract:
Abstract: This article studies the portraits of two gender-ambiguous individuals, the seventeenth-century Spanish soldier Antonio (née Catalina) de Erauso and the eighteenth-century French diplomat the Chevalier (Chevalière) d’Eon, as they offer a window into early modern debates on the representation of nature through its wonders. Making sense of the representations of Erauso and d’Eon requires viewing them as depictions of nature that belonged to the genre of the cabinet of curiosities. When seen as part of the cabinet of curiosities, their paintings appear as part of the artistic and scientific explorations that negotiated changing concepts of nature in early modern Europe. While Erauso’s portrait belonged to a tradition that embraced the sitter’s gender ambiguities, d’Eon’s portrait appears instead as a transitional object between two ways of organizing knowledge of nature. D’Eon’s portrait reflected a grown interest in the eighteenth century of representing nature in an objective way with a clear separation between the genders.

Abstract:
For the past several decades, scholars have examined the queer identities and sexual practices in eighteenth-century materials. However, queer and non-normative gender has been less frequently researched, even within the body of scholarship devoted to queer eighteenth-century studies. Scholars often take at face value the period’s gender norms, thereby suppressing the fact of a transgender eighteenth century. In this essay, I offer examples, from the Chevalier d’Eon to Lord Byron, that foreground the transgender qualities present in many materials of that time. I call on scholars to recognize the ways our field has inherited the period’s own normative views on queer gender expressions.

Abstract:
"Charles-Geneviève, the knight Éon de Beaumont, famous transvestite in the history of France, remains an enigma. The rumor will evoke the hermaphroditism of this knight, devoid of attraction to either sex. The eccentric D’Eon shatters genres and forces us to think about the masculine-feminine border and its flexibility. The androgynous knight refers to the tension between imagination and reality, to the emergence in the 18th century of medical and philosophical questioning on gendered indeterminacy."

Abstract:
In October 1775 two hoaxes, perpetrated for separate reasons by John Wilkes and his friend, the Chevalier d’Eon, briefly collided. Wilkes’s hoax, the ‘Sayre plot’, was probably intended to provoke a test of the constitutionality of the recent ‘King’s Proclamation’, which encroached upon the statutory definition of treason. The hoax involved creating the impression that a conspiracy existed to resolve the deepening American crisis by overthrowing George III. D’Eon’s hoax involved spreading the rumour that he himself was a woman in order to embarrass the French king into recalling him from exile on d’Eon’s terms, including a generous financial package. For Wilkes, although neither George III’s overthrow nor the modification of his colonial policy were likely expectations, either result would have been a bonus. And although d’Eon was unquestionably a man, he did actually (if inexplicably) desire to be perceived as a woman living the life of an heroic man. When d’Eon’s hoax suddenly progressed too far – trapping him into agreeing to dress as a woman, which, at first, he seemed unwilling to do – he delayed signing the deal for a month, until he saw that the ‘Sayre plot’ (whose success could have strengthened d’Eon’s negotiating position) had utterly failed.

Abstract:
Dans une trilogie entamée en 1846 et terminée en 1853, les Mémoires d’un médecin (Joseph Balsamo, Le Collier de la reine, Ange Pitou / La Comtesse de Charny), Dumas fait le roman de la Révolution, qui est en même temps celui de l’émergence du sujet contemporain de l’Histoire, porté par les personnages fictifs dans leur rapport avec les personnages et les événements historiques. Pourtant cette histoire s’arrête avant Thermidor. Qu’advient-il donc du sujet contemporain et de l’Histoire sous le Directoire, le Consulat et l’Empire ? C’est l’objet d’une seconde trilogie, que Dumas ne publiera qu’en 1857 (Les Compagnons de Jéhu) et 1867-1869 (Les Blancs et les Bleus, Le Chevalier de Sainte-Hermine), de manière discontinue, et sous une forme bien différente. L’objet de cet article est d’analyser les différences entre ces deux trilogies et d’en dégager les raisons et les effets.
