Religious unorthodoxy in the Royal Society in the 1730s
| Abstract | Diderot, the Editor of the Encyclopedie, a published mathematician in the 1740s, also shows detailed knowledge of unorthodox English thought of the 18th Century. It is not clear how he had obtained this, and this project forms stage 2 of a modularized investigation of this problem, part of what is now known as 'Radical Enlightenment'. This stage looks at the quarrel in the Royal Society (RS) in 1734, provoked by Bishop Berkeley's publication of The Analyst: a discourse addressed to an infidel mathematician, aiming to pick out any evidence of links with France among the discussants and discussions in the Society. |
