In 1758, Jean Le Rond d’Alembert proposed the public establishment of a theater in Geneva--and Jean-Jacques Rousseau vigorously objected. Their exchange, collected in volume ten of this acclaimed series, offers a classic debate over the political importance of the arts. As these two leading figures of the Enlightenment argue about censorship, popular versus high culture, and the proper role of women in society, their dispute signals a declaration of war that divided the Enlightenment into contending factions.

This book is a systematic philosophy of community, an ethical theory rooted in philosophical anthropology and metaphysics. The book examines such questions as: What is community?

How is community related to religion? to praxis? to law? How realistic is the ideal of community?

We go through life, struggling and hesitating, and die before we have found peace, useless alike to ourselves and to others.
