Synopsis
Contributing Authors

Le volume Descartes en dialogue illustre la richesse intellectuelle et la variete thematique des sujets abordes par Descartes au travers des lettres qu’il adresse a de nombreux correspondants comme la princesse Elisabeth de Boheme, le diplomate Pierre Chanut, les philosophes Thomas Hobbes et Henry More, ainsi que le jesuite Denis Mesland. De plus, certaines lettres fournissent l’occasion a Descartes de s’exprimer sur les theses du mathematicien et astronome Ismael Boulliau. Cette publication met surtout en exergue la valeur philosophique de la correspondance et son importance pour l’intelligence de la pensee cartesienne. De plus, une galerie des principaux portraits de Descartes, realises au XVIIe siecle, permet de visualiser certains traits attribues au philosophe par ses contemporains. L’ouvrage contient les contributions originales de Delphine Bellis, Erik-Jan Bos, Frederic de Buzon, Richard Glauser, Denis Kambouchner, Marie-Frederique Pellegrin, Olivier Ribordy, Angela Schiffhauer, Lisa Shapiro, Tiziana Suarez-Nani, Isabelle Wienand et Benno Wirz.
