A Republic of Sympathy is an original and important contribution to the intellectual history of the French Revolution, shedding new light on the role played by women in developing new currents of republicanism.' Antoine Lilti, École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales 'A vital companion to understanding Sophie de Grouchy, A Republic of Sympathy delves deeply into her moral and political philosophy. This comprehensive volume explores every facet of her active years, unravelling the intricate tapestry of her intellectual connections. McCrudden's meticulous research proves invaluable for those seeking to uncover not only Condorcet's wife and her remarkable translation of Adam Smith's Theory of Moral Sentiments but also to appreciate her as a captivating figure of the French Enlightenment.' Céline Spector, Sorbonne University 'There have been many brilliant books in the renowned Ideas in Context series but McCrudden Illert's A Republic of Sympathy is among the very best. It is original to its core, beautifully written and reveals Sophie Grouchy to have been a singular force from the Old Regime through the French Revolution and into the new century. It is a thoroughly engaging and outstanding work of scholarship.'
