Publisher's summary

Featuring some of the most brilliant and notable sayings from a man living on the cusp of a revolutionising world, 100 Quotes by Denis Diderot uncovers one of the most influential – yet almost forgotten – figures of the Age of Enlightenment.

French writer, philosopher, and art critic Diderot is most famous for being the co-creator and editor of the Encyclopédie, which featured many contributors and is now regarded as one of the precursors of the French Revolution.

This impressive collection captures his best musings and thoughts, ideal for those looking to explore one of the greatest thinkers of the age.

Denis Diderot (1713-1784) was a French writer, philosopher, art critic, and co-founder and editor of the Encyclopédie. Having been passed over by the Académie Française and received little recognition for his work, it wasn’t until Empress Catherine the Great appointed Diderot as her librarian in 1766 that his reputation – and finances - improved.

He remains today one of the most prominent figures during the Age of the Enlightenment, and a strong influence on the beginnings of the French Revolution.
