This is a book-length study of two of Descartes's most innovative
successors, Robert Desgabets and Pierre-Sylvain Regis, and of their
highly original contributions to Cartesianism. The focus of the
book is an analysis of radical doctrines in the work of these
thinkers that derive from arguments in Descartes: on the creation
of eternal truths, on the intentionality of ideas, and on the
soul-body union. As well as relating their work to that of fellow
Cartesians such as Malebranche and Arnauld, the book also
establishes the important though neglected role played by Desgabets
and Regis in the theologically and politically charged reception of
Descartes in early modern France. This is a major contribution to
the history of Cartesianism that will be of special interest to
historians of early modern philosophy and historians of ideas.
