On The Trail Of A French Philosopher Of Genius, Jules Lequyer, Donald W. Viney

Faculty Submissions

This is a brief account of my travels in the summer of 1994 to Bretagne to trace the steps of the little-known French philosopher, Jules Lequyer (1814-1862). My wife and I were hosted by Dr. Paul Houillon and his family in Plouguernével. Our meetings with the mayors of Quintin (Lequyer's town of birth) and Plérin (where Lequyer is buried) were covered by two national French newspapers.
