His work was a major influence on the development of the ideas of Voltaire (who acclaimed it for its candour on such subjects as atheism, obscenity and sexual conduct), Hume, Montesquieu and Rousseau. Banned in France on first publication in 1697, Bayle's Dictionnaire Historique et Critique became a bestseller and ran into several editions and translations. Sally L. Jenkinson's masterly edition presents the reader with a coherent path through Bayle's monumental work (which ran to seven million words). This is volume selects political writings from Bayle's work and presents its author as a specifically political thinker. Sally L. Jenkinson's authoritative translation, careful selection of texts, and lucid introduction will be welcomed by scholars and students of the history of ideas, political theory, cultural history and French studies. 410 0$aCambridge texts in the history of political thought. 606 $aPolitical science$vEarly works to 1800 606 $aBiography$vDictionaries$vEarly works to 1800 615 0$aPolitical science 615 0$aBiography 676 $a320/.01 700 $aBayle$b Pierre$f1647-1706,$0160491 702 $aJenkinson$b Sally$g(Sally L.), 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910777372903321 996 $aBayle--political writings$93815265 997 $aUNINA
