Perihal e-buku ini
A new translation of Denis Diderot's 1761 Praise for Richardson from the original French manuscript into American English. This edition contains an afterword by the translator on Diderot's philosophic legacy, a timeline of his works and life, and a glossary of philosophic terminology utilized in his works. 1761 Praise for Richardson, author of the Pamela, Clarissa, and Grandison novels: In this work, Diderot praises the English author Samuel Richardson and his influential novels. Diderot admires Richardson's ability to capture the complexity of human emotions and moral dilemmas in his works, particularly in novels such as "Pamela," "Clarissa," and "Sir Charles Grandison." Diderot's praise for Richardson's novels reflects his appreciation for the psychological depth and realism found in Richardson's characters and narratives. The influence of Richardson's novels on Diderot's own writing and his advocacy for the novel as a form of literary expression is evident. Diderot's praise for Richardson was shared by other intellectuals of his time, including Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, who considered Richardson's novels as significant contributions to the development of the modern novel. Denis Diderot is a critical figure of the Enlightenment who receives little attention from modern day philosophers. Diderot lived in the shadow of Rousseau and Volatire, whom he knew and worked with.
Perihal pengarang
A friend of Rousseau, Diderot was an Enlightenment writer and Philosopher. Diderot's other works spanned a wide range of genres, including novels, scientific treatises, and art criticism. His novel "Jacques the Fatalist" explores themes of determinism and free will, while "Rameau's Nephew" is a dialogic exploration of moral relativism and the nature of genius. In his art criticism, notably his writings on the Salons (the official art exhibitions in Paris), Diderot was pioneering, blending detailed descriptions with broader philosophical reflections on art and aesthetics.
