La « marche du progrès »
Aude Déruelle
Abstrak
In France, the metaphor of “the march of progress” spreads from 1830. This image has different meanings that this article puts into perspective: it develops a representation of time and humanity at the confluence of history and science, as the emergence of a “march of progress” in natural species coincides with the idea of a “march of progress” in human societies. Moreover, this metaphor brings together several conceptions of progress, which has contributed to its dissemination. The image builds a natural representation of progress, the redundancy underlining its inevitability. It also develops a representation of progress towards an end, leading to a new providentialism in science and history.
