Synopsis
Voltaire's Philosophical Dictionary, first published in 1764, is a series of short, radical essays - alphabetically arranged - that form a brilliant and bitter analysis of the social and religious conventions that then dominated eighteenth-century French thought. One of the masterpieces of the Enlightenment, this enormously influential work of sardonic wit - more a collection of essays arranged alphabetically, than a conventional dictionary - considers such diverse subjects as Abraham and Atheism, Faith and Freedom of Thought, Miracles and Moses. Repeatedly condemned by civil and religious authorities, Voltaire's work argues passionately for the cause of reason and justice, and criticizes Christian theology and contemporary attitudes towards war and society - and claims, as he regards the world around him: 'common sense is not so common'., Voltaire's Philosophical Dictionary, first published in 1764, is a series of short, radical essays - alphabetically arranged - that form a brilliant and bitter analysis of the social and religious conventions that then dominated eighteenth-century French thought.

- a***h (242)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseExcellent eBay experience. The product was packaged safely and arrived quickly. Item was as described, good price, and received solid communication. Good seller.
- _***p (0)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseUntrustworthy seller. Book listed as available, but after purchase alledged the item was shipped but used an “untracked” shipping option from USPS. Just as you might expect, Rocky Mountain Textcrooks never responded to the shipping inquiry, they simply refunded the transaction so they could relist the trending item at a higher price. Why else would you immediately refund the purchase unless you knew you never shipped in the first place. This is textbook deception. Run away from this seller asap!
- s***8 (36)- Feedback left by buyer.Past yearVerified purchaseItem was described as a Mass Market Paperback but came as Hardcover. However they were very helpful and offered a refund, but they found another one and sent it out. I always appreciate excellent customer service.Midnight Games (Fear Street Nights #2) by R. L.
