On 1793, August 8, the revolutionary Convention Nationale decreed the
abolition of
"toutes les académies et sociétés
littéraires patentées ou dotées par la Nation"
[all academies and learned societies licensed or endowed by the
Nation]
(Institut de France (1995), p.299).
According to
Institut de France (1995),
pp.18-19, the royal academies were suppressed by the Convention on
1793, August 8, because they were, in the words of Grégoire,
"gangrenées d'une incurable aristocratie."
The suppressed royal academies included the following national ones:
On the same date that the royal academies were suppressed,
the comité d'instruction publique de la
Convention was charged with preparing as soon as possible an
organizational plan for a société destinée
à l'avancement des science et des arts.
On 1795, October 25, the Convention adopted a report of Danou on the
formation of such an organization, no longer referred to as a
société but as an
institut national, and intended to cast into the shade the
splendour of all the former royal academies
(Institut de France (1995), p.19).
This organization was called the
Institut National des Sciences et Arts
(Institut de France (1995), p.20).
According to p.20 of
Institut de France (1995),
the Institut originally had the following three Classes:
- Première Classe:
Classe des Sciences Mathématiques et Physiques
[covered geometry, mechanical arts, astronomy,
experimental physics, chemistry, natural history and mineralogy, botany
and plant physiology, anatomy and zoology, medicine and surgery,
agricultural economics and the veterinary arts.]
- Deuxième Classe:
Classe des Sciences Morales et Politiques
[covered the analysis of sensations and thoughts, ethics, social science
and legislation, political economy, history and geography.]
- Troisième Classe:
Classe de Littérature et Beaux-Arts
[covered grammar, ancient languages, poetry, antiquities and monuments,
painting, sculpture, architecture, music, and oratory.]
According to p.29 of
Institut de France (1995),
Bonaparte decided, on the advice of a commission, to resurrect the former
academies, but within the bosom of the Institut;
so, on 1803, January 23, the Institut was re-organized into four classes
corresponding to the academies suppressed by the Revolution:
In addition, it should be noted that, according to pp.307-308 of
Institut de France (1995),
in January of 1803 Bonaparte had proposed a re-organization of the
Institut inspired largely by the former royal model (suggesting
among other things, restoring the designation of Académie
to the various sections),
which was rejected for this reason by the Conseil d'État.
The plan adopted a few days later on 1803, January 23 did not include
restoring the designation of Académie.
Co-incidentally, this re-organization effectively suppressed the
Classe des Sciences Morales et Politiques, the second class
originally established by the Convention in 1795.
It was not until 1832, October 26, that King Louis-Phillipe passed an
order prepared by François Guizot and Pierre-Louis Roederer that
re-established the Classe as the
Académie Royale des Sciences Morales et
Politiques
(Institut de France (1995), p.352).
Although the First Restoration of the Monarchy occurred in 1814, there was
too much instability in the country until after the Second Restoration of
the Monarchy (which occurred around July 1815, after the defeat of
Napoleon, who had returned from exile in February of 1815), for any reform
of the Institut
(Institut de France (1995), p.32).
On 1816, March 21, Louis XVIII issued an order fixing the statutes of the
Institut; one notable change was the return of the designation of
Académie to the constituent parts of the Institut
(Institut de France (1995), p.310).
It is not clear whether the Institut de France had any
connection
with the French publications that began in 1833 (v.1) with the title
L'Institut: Journal des Académies et Sociétés
Scientifiques de la France et de l'Étranger
[Scudder #1395], and that for 1834-35 (v.2-3)
had the title
Journal général (universel) des Sociétés
et Travaux Scientifiques, etc., and then subdivided into two
pieces, one of which (at least) continued to 1876.

Mémoires des Sociétés Savantes et
Littéraires de la République française, recueillis et
rédigés par les citoyens Prony, Parmentier, Duhamel,
Garnier, etc.
According to
Crosland (1967), p.189,
this journal was initiated in 1801 in order to serve as a showcase for the
memoirs of the many minor societies active in France at that time,
but the journal ceased a short time later, in 1802.
Although there is no direct proof that this was an official publication of
the Institut, two prominent members of the Institut, Prony
and Partmentier, served on the editorial board of this journal, so there
is some basis for a tenous link between the Institut and this
journal.
