Résumé anglais Victor Karady : University Growth and the Evolution of the Differential Opportunity in the Teaching Career at the Beginning of the French IIIrd Republic. This study concerns the morphology of the humanities teaching corps in secondary and higher education from 1870 to 1914. The growth of the teaching staff, resulting from the university reform, altered the composition of the teaching corps by multiplying the positions at the top of the university hierarchy. This evolution does not follow directly the social demand for teaching but rather a political strategy chosen by the Republicans. The career opportunities of the teaching corps are bettered, but differently according to the sub-groups and the conjunctures. In the first period of the regime (around 1890) the graduate students of the Ecole Normale Supérieure, profiting from a quasi- professional training to the teaching career, and from many school benefits, are the first concerned by the new appointments available. Later, their privileged position is weakened on the academic market by their competitors, graduated through different channels. Comparative data are presented of historical opportunity inequalities between Ecole Normale graduates and other university graduates, in relation to age structure, diploma and intrinsic indices of success. The career opportunities of the two populations tends to converge after the reform period.
