La polémique contre les modernes matérialistes dans les professions de foi théistes de Rousseau

In Rousseau’s writings on religion, there is a double polemic : against philosophical materialism and against institutional Churches. The author here studies the polemic against materialist philosophers in the Profession de foi du Vicaire savoyard, the Lettre à Mgr de Beaumont and the Lettres écrites de la montagne, restricting her analysis to passages where Rousseau declares his deism, or rather his theism.
