Remember the one in school who always seemed to dress right–the one awarded “best-dressed” by popular vote–who won so easily that his title was never in question? Sometimes I’ve wondered if the young gent’s mom should have had the real credit for his good taste, or whether this soldier-of-style possessed an innate talent to pull himself together since the time of his birth?

Voltaire and Diderot at the Café Procope. Habermas argued that the salon was an example of a number of social spaces, including book clubs and coffee houses, that had grown up in urban environments. Uninhibited by social norms and hierarchies, these public spaces enabled a free flow of ideas that ultimately challenged the ideological underpinnings of an absolutist state.

The work of Habermas thus transformed the salon into a proto-democratic organisation. Other scholars, such as the historians Francois Furet, Maurice Agulhon and Marc Fumaroli, began to build upon this idea until the salon was perceived as occupying a place of pivotal political, intellectual and literary importance.

Correspondence by Vichy du Deffand to Horace Walpole. Her letters alone come to over 1,500. In both the case of Geoffrin and Deffand, had they, in fact, been celebrated Enlightenment salonnières (whether or not the particular terms ‘salon’ or ‘salonnière’ were deployed) there should have been ample proof to substantiate this, either amongst their own records or the records of others who attended their salons.
