Depopulation and Repopulation in France - A Historical Battle Against Malthusianism
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a significant moment in French history, showcasing the booklet "Depopulation and Repopulation in France" by Arthur Le Creps. Created as a powerful tool against Malthusianism, this 19th-century engraving sheds light on the limitations imposed on female reproduction. The image portrays a French woman holding her child, symbolizing the essence of motherhood and family. It serves as a reminder of the theories proposed by Thomas Malthus (1766-1834), who advocated for restricting procreation due to concerns about overpopulation. Intriguingly, this propaganda brochure challenges such notions by emphasizing the importance of increasing birth rates to ensure societal growth. The vibrant colors used in this engraving evoke hope and optimism for future generations. As we delve into the demography of that era, it becomes evident that controlling population growth was at the forefront of public discourse. This pamphlet aimed to encourage individuals to embrace their role as parents and actively participate in repopulating France. Through its thought-provoking imagery, this historical artifact invites us to reflect upon our own perspectives on reproduction and its impact on society. It reminds us that every child born is an opportunity for progress and continuity. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' preservation efforts, we can now appreciate this remarkable piece from Fine Art Finder's collection without any commercial intentions but rather with an appreciation for
