Accademia degli Investiganti =
Accademia degl' Investiganti =
Academia Indagatrix
(Academy of the Investigators)
[After the disbanding of the Roman
Accademia
dei Lincei in 1630, the centre
of scientific study passed from Rome to Napoli and Florence, where two
illustrious scientific societies carried on the tradition of the
Lincei:
the Accademia degli Investiganti (founded 1650 in Napoli) and the
Accademia
del Cimento (founded in 1657
in Florence).
Various founding dates for the Accademia degli Investiganti have
been suggested (1650, 1655, 1663 and 1669).
The Accademia was
suspended 1669 or 1670, then revived 1735-1737.]

Société Académique de Soissons
(Academic Society of Soissons)
[According to
a brief historical page by the Société Archéologique,
Historique et Scientifique de Soissons,
this society was founded in 1650 as the
Société Académique de Soissons.
In 1674 it received letters patent from the King.
It appears that at this point it became the
Académie de Soissons.
The Academy had already become dormant by 1683, and was revived at the
insistence of Colbert.
According to
another brief historical page by the Société
Archéologique, Historique et Scientifique de Soissons,
the Academy was dissolved during the Revolution (probably 1793 August 8,
like so many other French academies).
It was revived in 1806 as the
Société des Sciences, des Arts et des Belles Lettres de
Soissons; it apparently published two volumes of
Mémoires in 1807 and 1808 (of which evidently no
trace remains).
It declined beginning in 1812 along with the Empire, and disappeared with
the latter (around 1814).]
The above pages have disappeared since being accessed around 2007; we have provided links to the archival copies at the
Internet Archive. They have been replaced by much abbreviated information at the website of the
Société Historique de Soissons
( );
the latter claims that in 1847 it was founded as the successor to the Académie de Soissons, which had been established in 1650.
