Born in Lyon to a bourgeois family, Bergasse became a lawyer and in 1775 began pleading cases before the Parlement of Paris. At first he mixed in the circles of the philosophes, and started as a revolutionary radical. The course of the revolution increasingly worried him and he slowly moved to the more prudent and conservative side. During the French Revolution, he created a particular political and constitutional thought inspired by the British and American models and developed a theory of the sovereignty of universal reason.
