Lettres d'André Morellet: Lettres: No. 460-629 (1806-1819) (Hardcover)

André Morellet (1727-1819), law reformer and political economist, played an important role in the dissemination of philosophical thought and in the principal debates of his day. Thanks to his remarkable longevity he was able to take part in many events that transformed French society and the western world. He participated actively in the intellectual movement that led to the publication of the Encyclopédie; in his later years he saw the beginnings of the Romantic era. This edition of correspondence considerably enriches our understanding of the society, literary circles and the history of ideas relating to the Enlightenment.
