In den WarenkorbPaperback. Zustand: Good. Denis Diderot (1713-1784) was among the greatest writers of the Enlightenment, and in Jacques the Fatalist he brilliantly challenged the artificialities of conventional French fiction of his age. Riding through France with his master, the servant Jacques appears to act as though he is truly free in a world of dizzying variety and unpredictability. Characters emerge and disappear as the pair travel across the country, and tales begin and are submerged by greater stories, to reveal a panoramic view of eighteenth-century society. But while Jacques seems to choose his own path, he remains convinced of one philosophical belief: that every decision he makes, however whimsical, is wholly predetermined. Playful, picaresque and comic, Diderot's novelis a compelling exploration of Enlightment philosophy. Brilliantly original in style, it is one of the greatest precursors to post-modern literature. The book has been read but remains in clean condition. All pages are intact and the cover is intact. Some minor wear to the spine.

Clean & tight copy, unread, in Near Fine condition w/uniform light yellowing of pages. "Denis Diderot is among the great writers of the Enlightenment and in JACQUES THE FATALIST he challenged the artificialities of the conventional French fiction of the period. [] The world of JACQUES is not a fixed and settled one where events are easily assessed and interpreted; on the contrary, it is a world of dizzying variety and unpredictability. For nothing is quite as it seems and an alarming proliferation of anecdotes, characters and philosophical problems continues to spring up around the apparently central theme of the relationship between Jacques and his master, in a skilled and devastating assault on the supremacy of the stylized novel." [publisher copy] "[A] feast of intelligence, humour and fantasy . . . Without JACQUES LE FATALISTE the history of the novel remains obscure and incomplete . . . its true greatness is only perceptible when it is placed beside Don Quixote, Tom Jones or Ulysses."--Milan Kundera. Pristine NF paperback w/brilliant corners & crisp edges, a square & tight binding w/no creases in spine.
