Machine translation, like
DeepL or
Google Translate, is a useful starting point for translations, but translators must revise errors as necessary and confirm that the translation is accurate, rather than simply copy-pasting machine-translated text into the English Wikipedia.
Consider adding a topic to this template: there are already 6,162 articles in the
main category, and specifying|topic= will aid in categorization.
Do not translate text that appears unreliable or low-quality. If possible, verify the text with references provided in the foreign-language article.
You must provide

The Coppet group (Groupe de Coppet), also known as the Coppet circle, was an informal intellectual and literary gathering centred on
Germaine de Staël during the time period between the establishment of the Napoleonic First Empire (1804) and the
Bourbon Restoration of 1814–1815.[1][2][3][4] The name comes from
Coppet Castle in Switzerland.
The group, which broadly continued the activities of Madame de Staël's previous
salons, had a considerable influence on the development of nineteenth century
liberalism and
romanticism.[5][6]Stendhal referred to the Coppet guests as "the
Estates General of European opinion."[7]
