Bayle’s responses to the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes
Type de matériel :
TexteLangue : français Détails de publication : 2021.
Sujet(s) : Ressources en ligne : Abrégé : It has traditionally been thought that Bayle’s response to the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes is given in his treatise on tolerance: the Commentaire philosophique sur ces paroles de Jésus Christ: contrains-les d’entrer (1686). However, in the same year, 1686, he also published another text: Ce que c’est que la France toute catholique sous le règne de Louis le Grand. Why did Bayle present simultaneously two texts that seem to contradict one another? How does he ultimately situate himself in relation to the very notion of tolerance? Was there a change in his position in this respect in his later work? And more broadly, what did Bayle think of the harmfulness of religion in general?
