This paper examines the self-measurement and self-tracking practices of a turn-of-the-nineteenth-century Genevese pastor and pedagogical innovator, François-Marc-Louis Naville, who extensively used Benjamin Franklin’s tools of moral calculation and a lesser known tool, Marc-Antoine Jullien’s moral thermometer, to set a direction to his life and to monitor and improve his moral character. My contribution sheds light on how technologies of quantification molded notions of personal responsibility and character within an emerging utilitarian context. I situate Naville’s use of these tools within his work as a pastor in a parish of the (then occupied) Republic of Geneva and within the Genevese and Swiss pedagogical reform movement of the early nineteenth century. I provide a detailed examination of how Naville used and adapted Franklin’s and Jullien’s tools of moral accounting for his own moral and religious purposes. Time, God’s most precious gift to man, served Naville as the ultimate measure of his moral worth.

自我监控：弗朗索瓦-马克-路易斯·纳维尔和他的道德表

本文考察了 19 世纪之交的日内瓦牧师和教学创新者 François-Marc-Louis Naville 的自我测量和自我跟踪实践，他广泛使用了本杰明富兰克林的道德计算工具和一个鲜为人知的工具, Marc-Antoine Jullien 的道德温度计，为他的生活设定方向并监控和改善他的道德品质。我的贡献阐明了量化技术如何在新兴的功利主义背景下塑造个人责任和性格的概念。我将纳维尔对这些工具的使用置于他在（当时被占领的）日内瓦共和国教区的牧师工作中以及在 19 世纪早期的日内瓦和瑞士教学改革运动中。我详细研究了纳维尔如何使用和改编富兰克林和于连的道德解释工具来满足他自己的道德和宗教目的。时间，上帝赐给人类最宝贵的礼物，作为衡量他道德价值的终极标准，为纳维尔服务。
