Le Nouvel Encyclopédisme

Le Nouvel Encyclopédisme: An Alphabetical Unfolding is a collection of French essays created in the tradition of the critical philosophical dictionary of Pierre Bayle, Voltaire and the Encyclopédie. It seeks to renew the importance of the critical encyclopedist tradition in the age of the mass-edited online encyclopedia and seeks to write in French as a gesture of solidarity to the Lumières of yesterday and to non-English language cultural and geographical regions of today.
