Catechumen 05 jun 1767 at Bern, where his father was minister. Marc Philippe was then a student of philosophy, presumably at Lausanne, but another source suggests he may have been studying in Bern. He was Professeur d'Eloquence at the Académie de Lausanne from 1775 until his death, and by 1792 held the position of Recteur.
An anonymous work published by H. Vincent (Paris and Lausanne) in 1790 under the title De l'Origine, des Usages, des Abus, des Quantités et des Mélanges de la Raison et de la Foi (3 volumes), with a new edition in 1793 under the pseudonym Keleph ben Nathan (and with a new title, La Philosophie divine appliquée aux lumères naturelle, magique, astrale naturelle, céleste et divine, ou aux immuables vérités que Dieu a révélées), has been attributed to him, for reasons that are unclear at best, under the name "Marc Philippe Dutoit-Mambrini", thus making him the son of the minister Jean Philippe Dutoit-Membrini, who, as far as is known, never married. Another anonymous work attributed, prehaps more reasonably, to the real Jean Philippe Dutoit-Membrini was published in 1800: La philosophie chrétienne exposée, éclaircie, démontrée et appuyée sur l'immuable baze de la révélation ou de la véritable religion pratique, expliquée et rendue à sa pureté primitive. Sermons discours et homélies. / par l'auteur de la Philosophie divine (Lausanne?, 1800, 3 volumes, of which the first continues the "Sermons de Théophile" published in 1764 and widely recognized as the work of Jean Philippe Dutoit-Membrini). A cursory search on Google Books and elsewhere shows that many authors had conflated Jean Philippe Dutoit-Membrini with the professor Marc Philippe Dutoit. The confusion appears to have been resolved, for the most part, toward the end of the 20th Century.
