Condorcet and the Progress of the Human Mind
Tuesday 17 September 2024 is the 281st anniversary of the birth of Marie Jean Antoine Nicolas de Caritat, also known as the Marquis of Condorcet, and usually known to posterity simply as Condorcet. He was born in Ribemont in Picardy, on this date in 1743.
Condorcet was a true believer in the Enlightenment creed of the indefinite perfectibility of man, and he wrote a history of humanity to illustrate this progress in the past and to predict continued progress in the future.

Transcendence now lies not in the heavens but in the future. Yet since the future is in limitless supply, desire also entails perpetual dissatisfaction, turning our literary canons and political constitutions to ashes in our mouths. It signifies a flaw at the very heart of our fulfilment, an errancy of our being, a homelessness of the spirit.
Terry Eagleton, Culture
I have no faith in human perfectibility. I think that human exertion will have no appreciable effect upon humanity. Man is now only more active - not more happy - nor more wise, than he was 6000 years ago
