L'Histoire des deux Indes
This is a preliminary database that allows full-text searching of the Abbé Raynal's Histoire philosophique et politique des établissements et du commerce des Européens dans les deux Indes. Users can query one or all of the included editions: 1770, 1774, and 1780.
The digitization of these editions was made possible thanks to the generous support of the Consortium for the Study of the Premodern World at the University of Minnesota, the Centre for Digital Humanities Research at the Australian National University, and the Stanford University Libraries. These editions will become the base from which a broader, multi-institutional project will explore the Histoire des deux Indes and its impact on Enlightenment thought in the coming years.

NEW: As part of the larger 'Digitizing Raynal' project, design experts Mitchell Whitelaw and Geoff Hinchcliffe from the ANU School of Art & Design, in collaboration with Glenn Roe at the ANU Centre for Digital Humanities Research, have developed a 'generous interface' that allows users to visualise textual changes (deletions, insertions, transpositions) across the 1770, 1774, and 1780 editions of the Histoire des deux Indes.
