philosophes  

Définition

  • The thinkers who called themselves philosophes were a diverse group who lived in France in the eighteenth century and led an intellectual movement that came to be called the Enlightenment. They are usually credited for inventing the language and concepts that were used during the French Revolution, but they did not participate themselves in the Revolution because all the most prominent members of the group had already died when the Revolution broke out in 1789.
