Jules Allix (1818, Fontenay-le-Comte, Vendée – 1897) was a feminist, socialist, and eccentric inventor linked to the Paris Commune.
Political activism
In the commune he inspired the creation of the "Comité des Femmes de la Rue d'Arras", which held a non-communist socialist view that emphasized the rights of women. The significance of the group is a matter of dispute, but it seems to have failed at several of its goals.[1]
Inventions and experiments
Jules Allix is also known for his connection to several inventions and experiments deemed unusual. One of these being the "snail telegraph." The idea behind it stated that snails, once put in contact, remain in sympathetic communication. Therefore snails could be used to send messages through this communication.[2]
