Charles Dupin favored representative institutions about which he wrote in his Lois fundamentales de la France (1814). He visited England several times between 1816 and 1819 and during these trips he assembled most of the material that served him so well in the composition of some of his more important works.

The first and second edition were both published in 1820. Fraser Frisell (1774-1846), a friend of Chateaubriand and Joubert, was educated at the University of Glasgow.

On the renewal of the war in 1803 he was again in France, and was thrown again in jail although not for long. He took up residence in Paris for the remainer of his life. Frisell was a man of considerable accomplishments. Chateaubriand called him 'le Gréco-Anglais.' Third work: First edition (?).Deals with the seven years term of the English parlement. ‎
