Informazioni su questo ebook

A new translation of Denis Diderot's short dialogue between himself and Jean Le Rond d'Alembert, one of the most important polymaths and philosophers in French Enlightenment society at the time. This edition contains an afterword by the translator on Diderot's philosophy, a timeline of his life and works, and a glossary of the philosophic topics which recur in his works. This is a short conversation between Diderot and Jean Le Rond d'Alembert, a prominent mathematician and philosopher. The conversation covers a wide range of topics, including science, philosophy, art, and morality. Diderot and d'Alembert discuss their respective intellectual pursuits and exchange ideas on the nature of knowledge, the limitations of reason, and the relationship between science and ethics. The interview provides insights into Diderot's philosophical views and his collaboration with d'Alembert on the famous Encyclopédie, a monumental work of knowledge and enlightenment. The dialogue showcases Diderot's intellectual prowess and his engagement with contemporary thinkers.
