More Info:
Paul Alexandre René Janet (30 April 1823 – 4 October 1899) was a French philosopher.
Paul Janet was a student at the École Normale Supérieure in the rue d'Ulm in 1841. In 1844 he was admitted to the agrégation in philosophy, with the rank of major. He defended his two doctoral theses on August 26, 1848, at the faculty of the University of Paris. The first, in French, deals with the Platonic dialectic. The second, in Latin, focuses on the plastic life of nature, celebrated in Ralph Cudworth's intellectual system.
From 1853 to 1896, he participated in dozens of doctoral thesis defenses as a member of the jury.
He became professor of moral philosophy in Bourges (1845-1848), in Strasbourg (1848-1857), then of logic at the Lycée Louis-le-Grand in Paris (1857-1864). From 1862, he was substitute professor of philosophy at the Sorbonne, and in 1864, he held the chair of the history of philosophy at that university until 1898.

The Cabinet Card was a style of photograph which was widely used for photographic portraiture after 1870. It consisted of a thin photograph mounted on a card typically measuring 108 by 165 mm (4+1⁄4 by 6+1⁄2 inches). The carte de visite was displaced by the larger cabinet card in the 1880s. In the early 1860s, both types of photographs were essentially the same in process and design. Both were most often albumen prints, the primary difference being the cabinet card was larger and usually included extensive logos and information on the reverse side of the card to advertise the photographer’s services. However, later into its popularity, other types of papers began to replace the albumen process. Despite the similarity, the cabinet card format was initially used for landscape views before it was adopted for portraiture. Some cabinet card images from the 1890s have the appearance of a black-and-white photograph in contrast to the distinctive sepia toning notable in the albumen print process. These photographs have a neutral image tone and were most likely produced on a matte collodion, gelatin or gelatin bromide paper. Sometimes images from this period can be identified by a greenish cast. Gelatin papers were introduced in the 1870s and started gaining acceptance in the 1880s and 1890s as the gelatin bromide papers became popular. Matte collodion was used in the same period. A true black-and-white image on a cabinet card is likely to have been produced in the 1890s or after 1900. The last cabinet cards were produced in the 1920s, even as late as 1924. Owing to the larger image size, the cabinet card steadily increased in popularity during the second half of the 1860s and into the 1870s, replacing the carte de visite as the most popular form of portraiture. The cabinet card was large enough to be easily viewed from across the room when typically displayed on a cabinet, which is probably why they became known as such in the vernacular. However, when the renowned Civil War photographer Mathew Brady first started offering them to his clientele towards the end of 1865, he used the trademark "Imperial Carte-de-Visite." Whatever the name, the popular print format joined the photograph album as a fixture in the late 19th-century Victorian parlor. (ref. Wikipedia)
