    18 Porter 1784

    ROY PORTER Wellcome Library, London Roy Sydney Porter 1946–2002 I WHEN ROY PORTER DIED on 4 March 2002, he had been recognised as an original, prolific and influential historian for a considerable time. He had been preternaturally productive for about three decades; in addition to his numerous and diverse writings, he was a frequent broadcaster and public speaker. Many people knew about him, his writings and ideas far beyond the confines of academia. He was both public historian and public intel- lectual. Roy worked prodigiously and with a special kind of energy. Since he published so much, it is tempting to list his achievements and to stress the sheer volume of work he produced. But to do so would miss the defin- ing features of the man and of his legacy. In assessing his impact and pay- ing just regard to his ideas and their influence, it is necessary to grasp the drives that lay behind this extraordinary and inspiring man. In writing this memoir I have had in mind those features of his life and work that seem to me to have been most fundamental; they provide the threads that were woven into his existence. I am thinking especially of his work ethic, his dedication to his students, his energy, his attachment to his roots, his capacity to bring people together, to positively exude encouragement and to embrace the tawdry, ugly and desperate parts of humanity’s past as well as its more elegant and elevated manifestations. The broad contours of Roy Porter’s life are familiar. Born on 31 December 1946, his early days are briefly sketched, and in moving terms, in his Preface to London: a Social History (1994).

    H-France Review Volume 18 (2018) Page 1 H-France Review Vol. 18 (April 2018), No. 72 Cecil Courtney and Jenny Mander, eds., Raynal’s Histoire des deux Indes: Colonialism, Networks, and Global Exchange. Oxford: Voltaire Foundation, 2015. xii + 349 pp. Illustrations, tables, notes, summaries, bibliography, and index. £70.00 U.K. (pb). ISBN 978-0-7294-1169-1. Review by Elizabeth Cross, Florida State University. Cecil Courtney and Jenny Mander are right to observe in their introduction to this volume that the Abbé Raynal’s Histoire philosophique des deux Indes has indeed come a long way since Gustave Lanson dismissed it as an “oeuvre morte” in 1895 (p. 1). Despite the fluctuating fortunes of the text--from eighteenth-century bestseller, to nineteenth and early twentieth- century oblivion--Raynal is everywhere in eighteenth-century studies now. Work by scholars such as Yves Bénot, Sankar Muthu, and (to a lesser extent) Jennifer Pitts has placed the Histoire des deux Indes in a canon of anti-imperial Enlightenment writings.[1] The Centre international d’étude du XVIIIe siècle is currently publishing a critical edition of the text, of which half of the collaborators on this volume are on the editorial team.[2] The introduction to this book is an essential summary of the current state of the field of Raynal historiography, and it makes clear just how much scholarly work went into the reestablishment of Raynal as an omnipresent figure in studies of the French Enlightenment today. As the editors readily note, the Histoire des deux Indes is not an easily approachable text.

    The Social and Political Philosophy of Mary Wollstonecraft

    2 Wollstonecraft on Marriage as Virtue Friendship Nancy Kendrick Mary Wollstonecraft’s claims in A Vindication of the Rights of Woman that marriage ought to ‘subside into friendship’1 and that the ‘security of marriage [is to be found in] the calm tenderness of friendship’2 have led some commen- tators to conclude that amorous love has no place in her conception of marriage,3 while others have found in her view a repressive attitude toward sexuality.4 Still other critics have claimed that in grounding marriage in classical ideals of virtue friendship, Wollstonecraft has naïvely modeled marriage on ‘perfect’ friendship between men.5 It is true that she sometimes suggests that amorous love is at odds with friendship,6 and it is also true that she conceives of marriage as based in the merit and esteem typical of virtue friendships, but the relation of her view to classical conceptions of friendship—in particular to Aristotle’s view—is more complex and interesting than critics have recognized. I provide an analysis of Wollstonecraft’s claim that marriage is friendship by considering the distinction Aristotle draws between virtue friendships and friendships of utility, especially as 1 Mary Wollstonecraft (1995), A Vindication of the Rights of Men (henceforth VRM) and A Vindication of the Rights of Woman (henceforth VRW), ed.
