Meer oor hierdie e-boek

A new translation of Denis Diderot's 1751 "What do you Think? A Philosophical Tale" (Qu’en pensez? Vous conte philosophique) 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. Diderot presents a fable-like story that explores themes of social hierarchy and the pursuit of power. L’oiseau blanc can be seen as a precursor to Diderot's later works, as it demonstrates his penchant for using imaginative storytelling to convey social and philosophical ideas.

Meer oor die skrywer

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.
