Description of the work
Description of the work
Diderot and d'Alembert's Encyclopédie. A seminal work of the French Enlightenment, the Encyclopédie, or Raisonné Dictionary of Sciences, Arts, and Crafts by a Society of People of Letters, represents, in its approach and historical context, the first major modern cultural initiative. Born from the idea of a corrected and expanded translation of Chambers's Cyclopaedia, the undertaking took a new direction when the publisher entrusted its direction to Diderot and, "as for the mathematical part," to d'Alembert. Talents from "all branches of human knowledge" were called to rally around the new project, as Diderot emphasized, with the aim of forming "a society of writers and artists, each intent on his own field, and bound together only by the general interest of the human race and by a feeling of mutual benevolence."
