关于此电子书

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. revolves around the character of Olinde, who believes he is dead while he is actually alive. Through Olinde's internal struggle, Diderot explores themes of personal identity, self-perception, and the nature of reality. The work can be seen as an early example of Diderot's interest in psychological introspection and his exploration of subjective experience. While specific intellectual influences are not mentioned, Diderot's exploration of the relationship between consciousness and reality had an impact on later philosophers, such as Søren Kierkegaard and his examination of subjective truth and existentialism.

作者简介

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.
