- W2301473794 abstract "THE Huguenot writer Pierre Bayle (1647-1702) needs little in the way ofintroduction. Author of the Dictionnaire historique et critique, defender oftoleration in his Commentaire philosophique, and indefatigable critic of superstitionsof all kinds, Bayle's influence as a man ofletters and an unquiet intellectualis substantial and well-documented. His letters, beginning in his early twenties,reveal that he was ever anxious to establish what was then called a 'commetcede lettres' with anyone, but particularly learned men (the prejudice of the timemade learned women a rarity) who could furnish him with news: news ofbattles during Louis XIV's European wars; news of the latest books; newsconcerning the nobility, the court and the petty nobility of all the regions ofFrance, but notably of his own comte de Foix. As he became well known, hisambition to have a network of correspondents throughout the then knownworld became more of a reality, finally blossoming into an enviable 'commercede lettres' when he became editor and principal author of the Nouvelles de Iarepublique des lettres from I683 to !687. When he gave up this project, as aresult of ill health, his correspondence diminished slightly, only to take offagain in the 1 69os when he began work on his Dictionnaire. Then, as when hewas writing the Nouvelles, Bayle wrote begging information and books fromanyone willing to supply his avid and tireless curiosity." @default.
