Bayle French 1647-1706
Pierre Bayle (1647-1706) is a key intellectual figure of the period, and his Historical and Critical Dictionary is the philosophy best seller of all time. This work is a critical but sympathetic treatment of a neglected thinker of interest in the fields of the history of modern philosophy, the history of ideas, and 17th century French culture.
