This book’s primary purpose is to commemorate the 300th
anniversary of Montesquieu’s Persian Letters, a seminal book in
classical liberal thought. Persian Letters is a delightfully rich,
sympathetic satire of commercial society’s promise and
discontents, covering a wide range of issues and themes that shaped
the direction of liberal modernity. It consists of a series of
letters largely written by two Persian travelers to Paris, who
allow modern readers to view Parisian life from the perspective of
an outsider. The volume includes contributions from prominent
scholars of Montesquieu’s and early career scholars who have
recently unearthed new and exciting avenues for understanding this
important hinge-figure in modern political thought.
