Description

1738 1ed Jewish Letters Boyer d’Argens Philosophy Judaica Politics Montesquieu

Jean-Baptiste de Boyer was an 18th-century French author who, curiously, spent nearly his entire literary career outside of France. His works were predominantly philosophical in nature, many of which took of the form of fictional correspondence, much like that utilized by Charles Montesquieu.

Boyer’s most famous work was his ‘Lettres Juives’, or ‘Jewish Letters’. This work was a ‘correspondence-style’ novel in which Jewish rabbis discussed the political climate around Europe.
