Full textSeventeenth century libertinism does not constitute a single harmonious philosophy, nor does it reduce to mere anti-christianism. Libertine thought is obviously in conflict with christian doctrine, but should not be reduced to this conflict alone : libertinism possesses its own logic and coherence, which it is important to grasp in order to understand authorial strategies. The analysis of the libertine protocol of reading and writing — their complex style, their rhetorical use of quotations, their irony — seems to us the best approach. Gabriel Naudé, François de la Mothe le Vayer, Cyrano de Bergerac and Charles Sorel read a very select library of books which they appropriate before beginning to write their own. To understand what is at stake in this protocol, it is important to determine the philosophical, rhetorical and stylistic coherence of libertine discourse. In the fields of religion, history and natural philosophy, the libertines tackle the question of knowledge from a very critical standpoint. Two domains — historiography and the reading of travelers’ accounts of their journeys — seem especially significant. Our authors elaborate an image of man and the world which competes with christian representations. Man loves myths : he has an inherent tendency to abandon critical distance. The libertines believe that it is most important to analyse the psychological mechanism that gives birth to conviction and belief. Writing strategies are the philosopher’s rhetorical answer to the anthropological analysis of human beliefs

Full textIn the times immediately following the Religious Wars, at the dawn of the Galilean revolution, the seventeenth century opens on a world without bearings, where theology seems unable to answer all the questions any longer. The only thing man has left is to turn toward himself : subject and object of this new epistemology, he takes the place of God, and of every principle of unity, as a point of reference ; that’s the reason why we see here the birth of some anthropological thought strictly speaking. In the relations that this very thought – still faltering – is having with literature – in many respects its breeding ground – but also with philosophy, the part of the “libertins érudits” is not often put forward ; the critical attitude which defines them however makes them the spearhead of a new way of thinking. So the “anthropological” discourse which emerges in their writings – descendants of Montaigne and Charron – first and foremost characterizes man as a creature fed by believes and representations, and this from the ethical, as well as from the political or aesthetic point of view. We would like to explore these different fields of research through an analysis of representations, especially in La Mothe Le Vayer’s and Cyrano de Bergerac’s works. The choice of such a corpus lies in the multiplicity of the genres it allows to explore, and the diverse influences (scepticism and epicureanism, among others) which feed it, and which make it an enriching gateway to the thought of the “libertins érudits”

Full textThe Theophrastus Redivivus, an illicit voluminous anonymous treatise written in 1659, shows that atheism could be a philosophical position in itself. Building up a reading method to decipher this libertine text, we were able to show that it was not a simple “collage” of quotations from Antiquity and Italian Renaissance sources, but that it provided a coherent argumentation, a complete materialist system including canonics, physics, and ethics. Even a policy based on the individual natural law is sketched up. The Theophrastus allows us to correct the machiavelian « libertine’s » traditional image. The classical theory of the imposture of religions does not prevent a reassessment of them: religions essential core, a kind of minimal credo, is the expression of a natural law, that of self- love. The people is able to understand priests’ cunning tricks, and the “Sage” doesn’t part completely from him: the treatise itself has an educational value. The anonymous author’s ontology displays dynamic naturalism which inherits from the padovan aristotelism, but breaks off from the pantheistic or animated naturalism of the Renaissance, and anticipates Spinoza’s naturalism. Modernity is seen as digging its roots into the Padovan Aristotelian tradition, independently from modern physics and Descartes. The Theophrastus is a missing link between “erudite libertinage” and “radical Enlightenment”. Finally it shows that the natural law tradition is not specifically Christian: for the atheist, politics replaces metaphysics. While explaining beliefs, atheism is the expression of the perpetual struggle of reason against imagination, two productions of nature

Full textThe libertine novelists of the 17th century wrote frequently in first person. Nevertheless, their use of the first person narrator did not lead to a personal configuration of a heterodox vision of the world. Characterized by irony and concealment, the libertine practice of self-diegetic writing is the product of a process of declarative dissociation: the auctorial point of view is well separated by the narrative one that, in its tom, lost its own ideological discourse and became a series of heterogeneous points of view. This study aims at analyzing this process through sorne works such as the Histoire comique de Francion (1623) by Charles Sorel, the Première journée (1623) by Théophile de Viau, Les Aventures satyriques de Florinde (1625, anonymous), Le Gascon extravagant (1637) by Onésime de Claireville, Le Page disgracié (1643) by Tristan L'Hermite, L'Autre Monde (1657-1662) by Cyrano de Bergerac, L'Orphelin infortuné (1660) by César François Oudin de Préfontaine, Les Aventures (1677) by Charles Coypeau Dassoucy, La Terre Australe connue (1676) by Gabriel de Foigny and the Histoire des Sévarambes (1677-1679) by Denis Veiras. At the end of the path characterized by the analysis of these texts, the subjectivity marking out libertine first person narrator novels seems to be a dissociated subject, hanging on the neuter declarative space where its contradictory impulses takes place

Full textThe topic of our research is G. C. Vanini's life and works (1585-1619). Until recently, these have been partially or anachronistically interpreted. That is why we have decided to place them in their proper context, within the age of counter-reformation, or the age of barocco. This was a time strongly conditioned by a "logic of war", a time when imagination was deeply concerned by recurrent metaphors with sceptic connotations that tended to contemplate life as a "dream" and the world as a "theatre". Every deed and writing of this philosopher can be analyzed as an original answer in the history of thought, once they are replaced in their right context, Vanini uses elements from other schools and doctrines from the late renaissance philosophy and builds upon the ruins of a thought in crisis (Aristotelian tradition) that -in its most orthodox version- legitimates the violent ideology of counter-reformation, which is Vanini's main target. His radicalism, as well as his ability for anticipation would explain the controversy that has always accompanied him, under the contradictory labels of "hero" or "damned". It would explain as well his capacity for acting as a catalyst -within the libertine movement- and as a reference difficult to forget when we try to rethink some important subjects related to the origin and consolidation of a certain modern mentality and its inherent contradictions: the conception of the basis and functions of knowledge, the place we assign to nature -and to man in nature-, the relationships between philosophy and religion or philosophy and power, the way to consider the metaphysical concepts or the horizon of transcendence, and the possible basis of an ethical theory that isn't based on religion any longer

Full textMusset's writing owes more than usually recognized to eighteenth-century libertine writers. This becomes clear when we remove old critical stereotypes and take a fresh look at his works. The very locations in which the stories take place hearken to the libertine tradition, drawing the picture of a sophisticated, worldly universe, confined to a few urban centres (Paris, Venice) and to some privileged, interior settings imbued with sensuality (boudoirs, petites-maisons). The key is evocation rather than description, literary reminiscences rather than the observation of reality. Musset's characters, too, display traits that set them in the tradition of the heroes of the libertine novel, in a relationship equally comprising admiration and desired imitation, as well as polemical opposition and reinterpretation. They are, notably, good talkers and seducers. Whether employed in dangerous and corrupting designs, or in more playful and lighthearted tones, their speech is marked by a language, a phrasing, a style, a seductive intent typical of libertine writing. This is precisely where we can recognize the most fruitful and most deeply rooted libertine heritage in Musset's works: an elegant and allusive language, which suggests eroticism and desire without vulgarity; a style composed of decent yet evocative metaphors, insinuating reticence, artful ellipses. It is finally a way of writing that elicits the reader's complicitous cooperation and irresistibly seduces him. Between reviving and transcending the libertine model, reusing and ironically distorting the clichés derived from this tradition, Musset's work develops its originality and its charm

Full textComic stories are not just amusing. They reveal a new literary form that embodies the principles of the Libertine Philosophy. They are detached from the traditional aesthetic medieval tales and jokes. Their novelistic form defies the usual standards and thus announces the narrative pace of the modern novel: comic writers based without being theorists, new romantic rules. Style, aesthetics, language and themes diverge but remain complementary. Ironically, the diversity of the comic story made it rich but accelerated its disappearance. Building on ambiguity, comic writers and freethinkers chose the mask as a way to protest. Concealment and simulation are combined in a complex narrative structure. Deprived of its frivolous aspect, the comic becomes a means to convey one's disapproval and contest. It is shaped by writers who did not have the same experience nor the same style but had common goals: deride the romantic idealization inherited from the chivalric novel, use the factual and the real as basis for scrutiny and analysis and face the dogmas of Catholic thought especially when violently or legally imposed on Protestants. As Freedom is the common end, the perpetual struggle engages clever strategies and writing becomes a sign of rejection and a means to refuse transgression, as well. Mask games urge the reader to interpret the different hints hidden in the texts. Hence, the comic openes new reading scopes

Full textLibertine novels are not only pornography. During the 18th century, they are at the root of a philosophical and literary device, where fiction reflects and inspires reflection. Although the body of Libertine novels from Crébillon's Sylphe ( 1730) to Sade's Juliette ( 1797) is very diverse, the scam that runs through it is a distinctive oscillation between erotic scenes and philosophical debates. Rather than rewriting philosophical theories, the Libertine novels offer a literary way to philophize. Those novels offer experiences to the reader. Shilling philosophy towards the “boudoir”, the Libertine novel reconcile body and mind, theory and practice

Full textThis thesis concerns the first work by Jean-Louis Guez de Balzac, published in 1624, and the controversy that ensued. A publishing event of the 1620s, the collection of Lettres was the result of an attempt by Balzac, who was past master in the art of putting both his own person and his works on display, to be accepted as the pre-eminent orator of his time. With this displacement from the oral to the written medium, and from speech to mere letters, eloquence here became an art designed to give pleasure: it abandoned its favourite domain, political action, for the entertainment of an audience of people that frequent Court and high society. This much is demonstrated in Balzac's very style, which shows that from the constructions of classical rhetoric he mainly keeps an art of ornate discourse that enhances the refinements of an artistic form of writing that is held up as a model of prose along with that of Malherbe. Applause was, however, quickly followed by a major literary quarrel. Driven by Catholic apologists, this controversy shows the level of resistance created by Balzac's modernity, which is condemned out of respect for the Graeco-Roman inheritance, and in line with a type of religious discourse for which the culture of 'eloquence' was a sign of pride, and for which the search for new forms was a proof of freethinking. But the quarrel intensified, and went beyond the original debate about the Lettres, giving rise to a whole series of publications and encouraging a wide range of points of view. This event thus harnesses the energies of about twenty different authors, and put on show a great variety of literary careers and philosophies, a study of which allows us to seize the complex issues latent in publishing and writing practices at a period when the domain of literature and fine arts was becoming institutionalised
