# bio (long form, separated for readability)
bio: |
  Étienne Bonnot de Condillac was born on 30 September 1714 in France and became both a Catholic priest and a philosopher, though his clerical vocation never defined his intellectual one. He devoted his work to psychology and the philosophy of the mind, probing questions about perception, language, and how human understanding builds itself from sensation. His inquiries belonged to the Enlightenment's broader turn toward empiricism, but he carved his own path through the thickets of consciousness. He died on either 2 or 3 August 1780, the exact date lost to the gap between records.
