Jacques Cambry (2 October 1749 – 31 December 1807) was a Breton writer and expert in Celtic France. An early proponent of what came to be called Celtomania, he was the founder of the Celtic Academy, the forerunner of the Societé des Antiquaires de France. In addition, he is still honored as the "inventor" of the Oise ''département'' and praised for his contributions to the regional Breton identity as well as the national identity of post-Revolutionary France. ==Biography== Cambry, the son of a naval engineer, was born in Lorient, Brittany. He embraced the French Revolution, and was appointed to various governmental positions, including district attorney for the Lorient ''commune'' in 1792. In 1794 he became Commissioner for Science and Arts and embarked upon a journey in Brittany to visit the depots of confiscated nobility properties and the monasteries, which he published a report about in 1799. In 1799 he was appointed administrator of the Department of the Seine. On 2 March 1800, he was installed as prefect of the newly established ''département'' the Oise by Napoleon, and engaged himself deeply not just in administrative but also in cultural, archeological, and historical matters; when he left office, on 16 May 1802, he had given the new ''département'' a sense of unity and had convinced its inhabitants that they had a history they should be proud of. He was the first president of the ''académie celtique'' which he cofounded in 1804 with the philologist Éloi Johanneau and the diplomat Michel-Ange Mangourit. The ''académie'' held its inaugural session on 30 March 1805 and subsequently reinvented itself as the ''Société des Antiquaires''. He remained president until his death in 1807. Considered a true Enlightenment man, he is praised as well for his service to the national construction of France.〔
