Epicureanism and Augustinism in Pierre Bayle’s thought. A paradoxical affinity
Type de matériel :
10
We find in Bayle’s works some critical judgements based on surprising comparisons. He interprets texts by connecting them with other relevant contexts in order to emphasize the meaning – a strategy he calls “faire de belles applications.” We focus on the paradoxical affinity, picked out by Bayle, between Epicureanism and Augustinism through a comparison between Bayle and La Mothe Le Vayer on the subject of atheism.
