Challenging the current orthodoxy which opposes a moderate, theologically-informed German Enlightenment to the radical, anticlerical French Enlightenment, the research presented here focuses on attempts in Germany to use the materialism of these French writers in a positive manner. Using the concept of cultural transfer, this study investigates the material circulation of their writings and how their ideas were discussed in Germany. It aims to show that there was in fact a set of German thinkers keen to circulate French ideas on materialism. The research firstly assesses the availability (both in French and in German translation) of texts by the French authors, and reactions to their often controversial writings, both in review journals and texts by well-known German philosophers. This generally reveals a negative judgment of the French texts, which are dismissed as frivolous or dangerous. A range of examples shows how the literary-philosophical establishment consistently marginalised French materialism, which was seen as potentially dangerous to morality. The German socio-political framework will be studied, in order to understand if censorship or trading conditions were a barrier or a support to the circulation of French texts. After this first chapter on diffusion and discourse analysis, there are four additional chapters investigating the German reception of particular aspects of materialist thought, which analyse both the French writings, and the German context into which they were brought. Chapter two deals with sensualism and the idea of thinking matter. Chapter three analyses the reception of materialist conceptions of active matter, where motion is posited as an essential property of matter. Chapter four examines the materialist refutation of immortality of the soul. Chapter five assesses how the French writers’ ideas on morality, informed by their materialism, were transferred to German discourse. The German proponents of French materialism are all much less well known than detractors such as Lessing, Goethe, Reimarus and Mendelssohn. They include Karl Spazier, Heinrich Friedrich Diez, Johann Heinrich Schulz, Karl von Knoblauch and Michael Hißmann, among others. Each of these writers, occupying different positions in the literary-philosophical field, interacts with French materialist texts in different ways, and works differently to introduce these ideas into their own texts, using different strategies, including quotation and translation. Some seem to quote these works without attribution; others boldly declare their French sources as authoritative figures to support their positions. This thesis, therefore, aims to prove that in spite of the social and intellectual constraints on eighteenth-century German publishing, there were a number of German writers who, using a range of strategies, managed to circumvent these constraints and introduce these French ideas, either by appropriation, or by direct quotation, thus introducing the ideas of these previously condemned French philosophes into German discourse. 5 Declaration I hereby declare that no portion of the work referred to in this thesis has been submitted in support of an application for another degree or qualification of this or any other university or other institute of learning.

  • The Atheist's Bible: Diderot's 'Éléments De Physiologie'
    The Atheist’s Bible Diderot’s Éléments de physiologie Caroline Warman In off ering the fi rst book-length study of the ‘Éléments de physiologie’, Warman raises the stakes high: she wants to show that, far from being a long-unknown draf , it is a powerful philosophical work whose hidden presence was visible in certain circles from the Revolut on on. And it works! Warman’s study is original and st mulat ng, a historical invest gat on that is both rigorous and fascinat ng. —François Pépin, École normale supérieure, Lyon This is high-quality intellectual and literary history, the erudit on and close argument suff used by a wit and humour Diderot himself would surely have appreciated. —Michael Moriarty, University of Cambridge In ‘The Atheist’s Bible’, Caroline Warman applies def , tenacious and of en wit y textual detect ve work to the case, as she explores the shadowy passage and infl uence of Diderot’s materialist writ ngs in manuscript samizdat-like form from the Revolut onary era through to the Restorat on. —Colin Jones, Queen Mary University of London ‘Love is harder to explain than hunger, for a piece of fruit does not feel the desire to be eaten’: Denis Diderot’s Éléments de physiologie presents a world in fl ux, turning on the rela� onship between man, ma� er and mind. In this late work, Diderot delves playfully into the rela� onship between bodily sensa� on, emo� on and percep� on, and asks his readers what it means to be human in the absence of a soul.

ABSTRACT ISAAC SATANOW, THE MAN AND HIS WORK; A STUDY IN THE BERLIN HASKAIAH Nehama Rezler Bersohn Isaac Satanow, one of the most prolific writers of the Berlin Haskalah (Jewish enlightenment), typifies the maskil (an enlightened Jew) of his time. He was born and reared in Podolia, Poland at a time when Frankism and Cabbalah were reaching their peak influence. He subsequently moved to Berlin where the Jewish enlightenment movement was gaining momentum influenced by the general enlightenment and Prussia's changing economy. Satanow's way of life expressed the con­ fluence of these two worlds, Podolia and Berlin. Satanow adopted the goal of the moderate Haskalah to educate the Jewish masses, and by teaching them modern science, modern languages and contemporary ideas, to help them in improving their economic, social and political situation. To achieve this goal, he wrote numerous books and articles, sometimes imitating styles of and attributing the authorship to medieval and earlier writers so that his teaching would be respected and accepted.

  • Illuminati Conspiracy Part One: a Precise Exegesis on the Available Evidence
    http://www.conspiracyarchive.com/NWO/Illuminati.htm Illuminati Conspiracy Part One: A Precise Exegesis on the Available Evidence - by Terry Melanson, Aug. 5th, 2005 Illuminati Conspiracy Part Two: Sniffing out Jesuits A Metaprogrammer at the Door of Chapel Perilous In the literature that concerns the Illuminati relentless speculation abounds. No other secret society in recent history - with the exception of Freemasonry - has generated as much legend, hysteria, and disinformation. I first became aware of the the Illuminati about 14 years ago. Shortly thereafter I read a book, written by Robert Anton Wilson, called Cosmic Trigger: Final Secret of the Illuminati. Wilson published it in 1977 but his opening remarks on the subject still ring true today: Briefly, the background of the Bavarian Illuminati puzzle is this. On May 1, 1776, in Bavaria, Dr. Adam Weishaupt, a professor of Canon Law at Ingolstadt University and a former Jesuit, formed a secret society called the Order of the Illuminati within the existing Masonic lodges of Germany. Since Masonry is itself a secret society, the Illuminati was a secret society within a secret society, a mystery inside a mystery, so to say. In 1785 the Illuminati were suppressed by the Bavarian government for allegedly plotting to overthrow all the kings in Europe and the Pope to boot. This much is generally agreed upon by all historians. 1 Everything else is a matter of heated, and sometimes fetid, controversy. It has been claimed that Dr. Weishaupt was an atheist, a Cabalistic magician, a rationalist, a mystic; a democrat, a socialist, an anarchist, a fascist; a Machiavellian amoralist, an alchemist, a totalitarian and an "enthusiastic philanthropist." (The last was the verdict of Thomas Jefferson, by the way.) The Illuminati have also been credited with managing the French and American revolutions behind the scenes, taking over the world, being the brains behind Communism, continuing underground up to the 1970s, secretly worshipping the Devil, and mopery with intent to gawk.
