About the Book

(Bilingual Edition: English / German):


What were the early visions of Empire in Regency France?
The book offers a interpretation of Jean-Antoine Watteau's Pilgrimage to
the Isle of Cythera (1717) by framing it in the context of French
colonial expansion in the years of the Regency. Born in Louis XIV's
reign, galant aesthetics contributed to frame the colonial encounter in
French America. Fantasies of maritime departure, embarkation and/or
debarkation, also expressed a longing for colonial travel and
exploration. The imperial imagination fueled with codes of galanterie
was very developed in the circles of Watteau's amateurs. From Watteau's
Pilgrimage to the Isle of Cythera (1717) to its visual reenactment in
1763, the book argues that galanterie served as a visual and conceptual
model of French commercial and colonial relations.


  • Imagination, Utopia and Gallantry
  • New look at colonial aspirations

Wie sahen die frühen imperialen Visionen im Frankreich der Régence aus? Das Buch bietet eine neue und auch provokative Deutung von Jean-Antoine Watteaus Pilgerfahrt zur Insel Cythera (1717), indem es das Werk in den Kontext der französischen kolonialen Expansion in den Jahren der Régence stellt. Die galante Ästhetik, die während der Herrschaft und im Imperium Ludwigs XIV. entstand, trug dazu bei, die koloniale Begegnung in Französisch-Amerika zu gestalten. Die Fantasien vom Aufbruch zur See, vom Einschiffen oder Ausschiffen, allesamt Merkmale des Gemäldes, drückten auch die Sehnsucht nach kolonialen Reisen und Entdeckungen aus. Die imperiale Imagination, die sich aus den Codes der Galanterie speiste, war in den Kreisen von Watteaus amateurs, die ihrerseits den Modernen nahestanden, die neue ästhetische Formen in Kunst und Literatur förderten, sehr ausgeprägt. Von Watteaus Pilgerfahrt zur Insel Cythera (1717) bis zu ihrer visuellen Nachstellung im Jahr 1763 diente die Galanterie als visuelles und konzeptionelles Modell der französischen Handels- und Kolonialbeziehungen.

Quelles furent les premières visions de l'Empire dans la France de la
Régence ? Cet ouvrage propose une interprétation nouvelle du Pèlerinage à
l'île de Cythère (1717) de Jean-Antoine Watteau en le replaçant dans le
contexte de l'expansion coloniale française des années de la Régence.
Née sous le règne et l'imperium de Louis XIV, l'esthétique galante a
contribué à donner une forme visuelle à la rencontre coloniale en
Amérique française. Les motifs du débarquement, de l'embarquement et du
voyage maritime, essentiels dans ce tableau, exprimaient également un
désir de voyage et de conquête. L'imaginaire impérial, alimenté par les
codes de la galanterie était très développé dans les cercles des
commanditaires de Watteau, eux-mêmes proches des cercles des Modernes,
qui défendaient de nouvelles formes esthétiques en art et en
littérature. Du Pèlerinage à l'île de Cythère (1717) de Watteau à son
remploi visuel en 1763 dans une vue d'optique, le livre soutient que la
galanterie servit comme ressource formelle au développement de
l'imaginaire colonial français.
