Citizens of the Enlightenment : Citoyens des Lumières

Citizens of the Enlightenment explores the legal, spatial, and cultural elements that shaped citizenship in eighteenth-century Europe. The authors chart the multimodal construction of the citizen as it emerges in relation to the city, understood as both a real and an imagined space, which was believed to not just accommodate citizens but shape their selfunderstanding as such. At the book's centre are the explicit and implicit norms, standards, codes, habits, and obligations that European citizens of the Enlightenment had to navigate, but which they were able to influence in turn. First presented at the International Seminar for Early-Career Scholars, hosted by the Université du Québec à Montréal in 2017, Citizens of the Enlightenment shows how citizenship was not just a legal category, but also a lived experience and thus intertwined with the visual, verbal, and material environment eighteenth-century Europeans encountered in the city.Citoyens des Lumières explore les dimensions juridiques, spatiales et
