  • Maine de Biran, Leibniz and virtuality.Marc Parmentier - 2016 - Methodos 16.
    En 1819, Maine de Biran rédige une Exposition du système de Leibniz. Ce texte accorde une place centrale à la virtualité en l'associant à trois éléments-clés du système leibnizien : la monade miroir représentant « virtuellement » l'univers ; la conception dynamique de la substance constituée par une tendance virtuelle ; l'innéité des idées qui résulterait, aux yeux de Biran, d'une application de la dynamique et plus précisément du concept de la « force considérée comme virtuelle ». Ces trois références (...)

  • Condillac et la critique d’un système. Le cas leibnizien.Christian Leduc - 2018 - Dialogue 57 (4):767-789.
    In the Traité des systèmes, Condillac analyses a plurality of systematic metaphysical doctrines, specifically, those of Spinoza, Malebranche and Leibniz. Commentators have mainly interpreted this plurality as a way for Condillac to illustrate his criticisms and to raise doubts about the main contemporary systems while using the same criteria for interpretation.

  • Critique des systèmes et antimathématisme au XVIII e siècle.Angela Ferraro - 2018 - Dialogue 57 (4):813-832.
    This paper focuses on the link between systems criticism and anti-mathematicism in the French-speaking philosophical literature of the mid-18thcentury. Moving from Condillac’s omissions to the exemplary cases of Diderot and Buffon—as well as considering Formey’s crucial remarks—I reconsider the complex relationship that the authors of the French Enlightenment have with the Newtonian model. Finally, I inquire into the fate awaiting both mathematics and systems in this context after 1750.
