Never republished, d’Alembert’s Melanges were written during his dark years, a compilation of pieces about the Encyclopedie, people of letters, probability, inoculation, Tacitus, and philosophy. They shed light on an ordering of knowledge based on understanding for a public that was weary of words and wanted things.
