Known principally as the chief editor of the "Encyclopedie", the great "bible" of the age, he was an incomparable polymath (a dramatist, novelist, speculative philosopher, the founder of modern art criticism, & tireless correspondent. And his works, all of them informed by an uncannily modern sensibility, have influenced a staggering array of writers --from Goethe & Schiller to Balzac, Stendhal, Heine, Marx, Freud, & Kafka. In this masterful biography, P.N. Furbank provides a probing yet sympathetic account of Diderot's life & a brilliant analysis of his work, drawing intriguing connections between many previously disjointed notions about the man & his achievement. The son of a cutler (though a hopeless craftsman himself), Denis Diderot rose, after an interestingly complicated youth, to become an intimate of all the eminent intellectuals of the enlightenment. A close friend of Rousseau, Grimm, & of d'Alembert, & a familiar figure in the literary salons of Paris, he also met & corresponded w/ David Hume, David Garrick, & Lawrence Sterne. The support of yet one more remarkable acquaintance, Catherine the Great, led to what is perhaps the most amazing episode in this astonishing life; at the age of 60, he traveled to St. Petersburg &, in debate w/ the Empress, drew up plans for the conversion of Russia into an ideal republic. A deeply subversive genius, Diderot spent much of his working life under the threat of exile. Consequently his daring & inventive novels did not begin to reach the public until a decade after his death, & in the case of his inexhaustibly strange masterpiece, "Rameau's Nephew", not until two decades or more. These and others of his most original compositions (also unpublished in his lifetime) reveal aspects of Diderot virtually unknown to his contemporaries and often misunderstood today. Furbank's absorbing book meticulously draws the various strands together as it brings to life its astounding subject. * ABOUT THE AUTHOR: P.N. Furbank was born in Surrey in 1920 & has worked as an academic, in publishing & as a freelance writer & critic. In 1986 he was appointed Visiting Professor in Literature at the Open University. His publications include "Samuel Butler" (1835-1902), "Italo Svevo: The Man and the Writer", "Reflections on the Word 'Image'", "E.M. Forster: A Life", "Unholy Pleasure: The Idea of Social Class" & (with W.R. Owens) "The Canonisation of Daniel Defoe". * HIGH PRAISE: "A delicate & subtle portrait of the great 18th-century encyclopaedist & Enlightenment 'philopsophe'. Furbank recovers for us the passionate sceptic & atheist as well as the humane intellectual & emotional innovator of his time, who might readily have been one of our century's moderns." -Leon Edel * SHIPPING: MNEMOSYNE securely wraps & packages this book w/ greatest care for prompt secure FREE shipment via USPS MEDIA MAIL to all domestic destinations w/ USPS PRIORITY MAIL (domestic) & USPS FIRST CLASS INTERNATIONAL AIRMAIL available at our posted rates.
