Charles Devellennes looks at the the religious, social and
political thought of the first four thinkers of the French
Enlightenment: Pierre Bayle, Jean Meslier, Paul-Henri Thiry
d'Holbach and Denis Diderot to explicitly argue for atheism as a
positive philosophy. He shows how atheism evolved considerably over
the century that spans the works of these four authors: from the
possibility of the virtuous atheist in the late 17th century, to a
deeply rooted materialist philosophy with radical social and
political consequences by the eve of the French revolution. The
metamorphosis of atheism from a purely negative phenomenon to one
that became self-aware had profound consequences for establishing
an ethics without God and the rise of republicanism as a political
philosophy.
