An important book in the history of freedom of thought. Analyse de Bayle was a controversial work, censored in France during its time. Marsy, a former Jesuit, compiled Bayle's writings that were unfavorable to religion. "Pierre Bayle made a case for the possibility of a society of atheists in the late seventeenth century. Not surprisingly, Bayle's work became increasingly popular in France after 1750, aided by Marsy's popular summary of his ideas in Analyse raisonnee de Bayle, which was predictably condemned by the Paris Parlement in 1756. By the time Rousseau entered the fray of this debate Bayle's reasoning, 'which ran wholly counter to all arguments on behalf of a social religion, [had] entered the mainstream of enlightened speculation and caused some debate.' (Graeme Garrard. Rousseau's Counter-Enlightenment: A Republican Critique of the Philosophes" SUNY, 2003. p. 70). Much of the edition was burned, and the author was sent to the Bastille. The remaining four volumes (slightly different in style of binding because of the elapsed time) were compiled by Jean-Baptiste-Rene Robinet and did not appear until 1770 in Holland. (J.P. Belin, Le Mouvement philosophique de 1748 a 1789. 1913, pp. 71-73) Also, John Mackinnon Robertson. "A Short History of Freethought Ancient and Modern, Volume 2," Putnam, 1906. p. 225. Pierre Bayle was a Huguenot scholar who fled from French religious intolerance to Geneva and Holland. Bayle's influential encyclopedia was a best-selling philosophical work of the 18th century. The Dictionnaire's influence can be seen on Diderot, Locke, Leibniz, Kant, Hume, Berkeley, among others. Although an avowed Christian by faith rather than by reason, Bayle's fideist approach to the question of God created the logical framework for an atheist worldview. Bayle pointed out contradictions between theological tenets and the supposedly self-evident dictates of reason, though at the same time sought to promote religious tolerance, and argued strongly against inflexible and authoritarian application of religious articles of faith. (Standford Encyclopedia of Philosophy remarks that Bayle's most significant impact is on the impulse towards modern atheism.).
