1848 : gregor Mendel, le moine qui voulait être citoyen
1848: Gregor Mendel, the monk who wanted to be a citizen
Université Paris7
Au début du mois d’août 1848, six moines augustins du monastère Saint-Thomas de Brünn (Moravie) envoient une pétition à l’Assemblée impériale constituante de Vienne. La signature de Gregor Mendel au bas de ce texte en fait un des rares documents susceptibles de nous informer sur son comportement durant ce qui fut pour lui une période cruciale.
Abstract
This article proposes a previously unpublished French translation of a petition, in German, addressed by six Augustinian friars to the Constitutional Parliament of Vienna in the revolutionary year 1848. The petition states that members of religious orders are deprived of civil rights and demands that they be given citizenship ; it also contains a bitter attack on the monastic institution. We suggest that Mendel was the author of this text, which he signed and actually hand-wrote.
