1730
|
According to the
CTHS - Sociétés Savantes database,
this Academy was founded in 1730 as a literary society, and was made an
Academy on 1744, July 19 by Louis XV (the names of the society and the
academy are not given).
According to a
Chronologie [a chronology of French scholarly societies at Gallica],
the founding name in 1730 was
Société Littéraire de Montauban.
The name of the Academy in 1744 is established by the catalogue record for
its Mélanges de poésie, de littérature et
d'histoire (1744/46 - 1747/50).
This same name is also seen in a catalogue record in the
Bibliot. Nat. France cat. for the following
book published in 1788:
Éloge de Jean-Jacques Lefranc, marquis de Pompignan, qui a
remporté le prix au jugement de l'Académie des
Belles-Lettres de Montauban en 1787.
The
Chronologie [a chronology of French scholarly societies at Gallica]
indicates that this Academy was
reconstituted in 1797 (after being suppressed by the Convention in 1793)
as the
Société des Sciences et Arts de Tarn-et-Garonne,
indicating that this was the name that it had from 1797 - 1883.
Its publications and the
CTHS - Sociétés Savantes database, however,
suggest a somewhat more complex history during that time period (see below).
The
CTHS - Sociétés Savantes database further indicates that
the Academy had the following sequence of names:
Société des Sciences, Belles-Lettres et Arts de
Tarn-et-Garonne (1867-1876);
Société des Sciences, Agriculture et Belles-Lettres de
Tarn et Garonne (1877-1878);
Société des Sciences, Belles-Lettres et Arts de
Tarn-et-Garonne (1879-1883 - i.e. reversion to 1867-1876 form);
Académie des Sciences, Belles-Lettres et Arts de
Tarn-et-Garonne (1885-1925).
It is now called the
Académie des Sciences, Belles-Lettres, Arts et Encouragement au
Bien de Montauban.
The GBV German Union cat.lists the
following publication, which may supply some historical information:
Histoire de l'Académie de Montauban: 1740-1867: Discours
prononcé / De Broca
(by Charles Alexandre de Broca, published in Montauban in 1868).
According to the Catalogue Collectif de France
the latter is a 47 page
document, but there is also a publication entitled:
Société littéraire et l'ancienne Académie de
Montauban. Histoire de ces sociétés et biographie de tous
les Académiciens, 2e éd.
(by Emerand Forestié, 1888, Montauban, 312 p.)
