90. See Benjamin Constant, Fragments d’un ouvrage abandonné sur la possibilité d’une
    constitution républicaine dans un grand pays, ed. Henri Grange, Paris: Aubier
    (Bibliothèque philosophique), 1991. This first scholarly edition of an important
    political text is preceded by a valuable hundred-page introduction. Grange argues
    (pp. 27–8) that the Fragments may have been begun in the winter of 1795–6 and
    worked on sporadically until 1807 or even later.
