Marian Hobson's work has made a seminal contribution to our
understanding of the European Enlightenment, and of Diderot and
Rousseau in particular. This book presents her most important
articles in a single volume, translated into English for the first
time. Hobson's distinctive approach is to take a given text or
problematique and position it within its intellectual, historical
and polemical context. From close analysis of the underlying
conceptual structures of literary texts, she offers a unique
insight into the vibrant networks of people and ideas at work
throughout Europe, and across disciplinary boundaries as diverse as
literature and mathematics, medicine and music. In their
translations of Hobson's essays, Kate Tunstall and Caroline Warman
present the primary sources in both the original eighteenth-century
French and modern English, making the detail of these debates
accessible to everyone, from the specialist to the student,
whatever their academic discipline or interest.
