TI  - A history of the street light <em>à réverbères</em>: collective management of the innovation, technical script and space reticulation 
AU  - Benjamin Bothereau 
AB  - The street light à réverbères, also known as the “optical” street light, is an improved version of the ordinary street light which optimizes the luminous intensity of the lantern by using concave metal reflectors to direct the beam of light where needed. Although history chooses to focus on the Argand lamp, this article deals with a far less dignified and valued technical element: the reflector. From the technical scheme to its use, this paper presents the history of this lighting innovation, and seeks to shed light upon the multi-layered and entwined nature of this seemingly trivial and banal artefact.
