The philosopher, writer, mathematician, and academician, Fontenelle (1657-1757) produced an oeuvre unified by a philosophical mode of writing reflecting all major works of intellect and culture. It seeks to liberate the mind through a re-appropriation of its own strength, with a singular philosophical “tenderness”.
