Pierre Bayle: Dialogues of Maximus and Themistius
Leiden, Netherlands: Brill's Texts and Sources in Intellectual History 256/18 (2016)
Abstract
An English translation of Pierre Bayle's posthumous last book, Entretiens de Maxime et de Themiste (1707), in which Bayle defends his skeptical position on the problem of the evil. This book is often cited and attacked by G.W. Leibniz in his Theodicy (1710). Over one hundred pages of original philosophical and historical material introduce the translation, providing it with context and establishing the work's importance.Author's Profile
