  • 00:10:00 Denis Diderot's novel, "Les Délices de la vie sexuelle", deals with the topic of sex and its morality. Diderot argues that, because humans are able to abstract concepts, such as God, from their everyday lives, those who cannot see can never truly understand the concept of God. When an anonymous person sends a copy of the book to the King of France, Diderot is arrested and held in prison for nearly two years.
  • 00:15:00 Diderot wrote a series of essays in which he discussed the limits of knowledge and the dangerous effects of reason in society. He also wrote about his own thoughts on life and the human condition. In one of these essays, he discusses the idea of destiny, and how no one else in his time was taking this idea seriously. Russian thinker Rousseau read this essay and was struck by its brilliance. He decided to write an essay in response, arguing that knowledge and art can corrupt morality. Diderot was impressed by Rousseau's courage, and agreed to write a rebuttal. In the essay "On the Origin of Inequality," Diderot argues that reason can be both positive and negative, and that humans are never able to know everything. He also discusses the dangers of overusing reason. This essay is a fundamental cornerstone of Rousseau's philosophy, and it helps to explain his opposition to the Enlightenment.
  • 00:20:00 In this video, we see how heroically Diderot signed his book Emilio de la educación with his name, risking his life and having to go into exile then that phrase will be your guide on the way nobody takes is the motto of his existence, but in this particular case, it definitely has to do with his response to the invitation of the Academy of Sciences of Dijon to answer that question and it is likely the only one who does so, saying that sciences and arts can have a very negative role and Ghana is that contest That suddenly becomes famous to Russian and alters his destiny for always in his autobiography, Russian confessions will be complaining as he usually does, a person always neurótica afflicted, not because he says that from that essay will come glory on the one hand and determination of his vocation, i.e. from then on, he will be a thinker and will have to be faithful to that position, he cannot betray himself and, finally, as a result of that essay, comes also his misery, his misery because he considers that lucidity is complicated that it is uncomfortable that not always is easy to say the truth that through it one loses in friends, loses in job, loses
  • 00:25:00 Denis Diderot, a French writer and philosopher, decided to end his writing career and wrote a letter stating that he would no longer write works of philosophy or literature. As a result, he committed to censoring his own work--something that is terrible for a writer of that talent who will no longer publish anything in life. Diderot's literary fate will be quite peculiar, as he will continue writing but will leave most of his major works unpublished. His most significant work, published posthumously, is his Encyclopedia. Denis Diderot was born in 1713 in a small town near the Russian border, and studied at the Jesuit school in Chaumont. He decided to pursue a religious career, but abandoned it after a short time and began a career as a writer. He wrote a number of anti-clerical texts that would later prove controversial. In 1746, he was appointed abbot of Langres, a small town in Champagne. He enjoyed a close friendship with a glassmaker, Denis-Jacques Lacretelle, and they would often engage in physical challenges, such as fighting with rods or stones, and Diderot would eventually receive a scar on his forehead from one such battle. After a few years, Diderot abandoned his
  • 00:30:00 Diderot wrote a series of humorous letters to his close friend and philosophesan, Sophie Volland, in which he dramatizes the various conversations and incidents at a dinner party he attended. In one letter, Diderot imagines a conversation between himself and the great botanist, Buffon, in which Buffon ridicules Diderot's dramatic abilities. Diderot responds with a lengthy and hilarious letter recounting the conversation in full. Diderot's life was not easy, as he was constantly on the move, struggling to make a living and support his large family. But despite all of his trials and tribulations, he remained a witty and romantic individual, writing letters full of amusing anecdotes. His daughter, Angelique, would later be remembered as one of the greatest philosophers of her era.
  • 00:35:00 Diderot is a French philosopher and writer who has had a significant impact on the development of Western thought. He is most famous for his Encyclopedic Dictionary, which was published in 1751. Diderot was born into a wealthy family and was raised in a cultured environment. He became interested in philosophy and literature at a young age and began to write essays and translate classical texts. However, Diderot's early works were not well-received and he soon realized that he lacked the talent to be a full-time writer. He turned to translation and became a successful translator of English and French texts into his native language. Diderot was also a prolific writer and published many essays, poems, and books in his lifetime. He is considered one of the founders of the French Enlightenment.
  • 00:40:00 In this video, Diderot discusses his ideas on religion and how it differs from his own atheist perspective. He also speaks about his idea of the "god of knowledge," which is a concept he develops in his philosophical writings.

  • 00:45:00 Diderot is considered one of the most important thinkers of the Enlightenment period, and his work in the field of history and philosophy is still studied today. In his work "La alegría del fatalista", Diderot critiques the idea that happiness is something that can be achieved, and instead argues that one must learn to accept happiness as a part of life. He also discusses the idea of the "encyclopedia", which is a project that will span 25 years and include articles on a range of topics. Diderot is known for his wide range of interests and his ability to connect different ideas together in a coherent way.
  • 00:50:00 The video discusses the work of Denis Diderot, who was a French philosopher, writer, and art critic. Diderot was a lovable individual with many interests and was very social, which made him a popular figure among very different people. He led a team of 150 writers for 25 years, and some of his most eminent collaborators included Voltaire, Rousseau, and Buffon. Diderot's vast project, the Encyclopédie, was a significant achievement in its time, as it emphasized the importance of manual labor and artisanry in literature. He was also a generous contributor to the arts, writing essays on painting, theater, and sculpture. Though he had significant differences with other artists, he was always supportive of them and appreciated their work. Diderot's open-mindedness and admiration for others is one of the most important aspects of his legacy, and it's evident in his work as editor of the Encyclopédie.
  • 00:55:00 This video shows excerpts from the French encyclopedia, Diderot's Encyclopedie, illustrating the importance of illustrations in a book. Juan Carlos Franco, an engineer at the National School of Audiovisual Arts, told the presenter that the French encyclopedia is in the library of their school. The presenter was surprised to find this out because the encyclopedia is filled with beautiful illustrations. One of the most valuable books in the library is the Encyclopedia of Diderot and d'Alembert, which has illustrations that are meticulously detailed and meticulously French. The presenter picks out one illustration and discusses how it is French. The illustration is of a French garden, and the presenter explains that we do not know the importance that figures like Le Nôtre had in French gardening. Le Nôtre was a famous French gardener who used geometric designs in his gardens. The presenter then reads an article on one of Le Nôtre's famous quotes: " Chaos is always allowed, provided it is in proportion to the budget." This is a humorous quote because in reality, nothing is chaotic at Le Nôtre. What happens is that the patrons' requests for Le Nôtre's masters can be chaotic. For example, one patron wanted the garden to be scented in

Denis Diderot was a French philosopher, writer, and editor who was known for his work on the Encyclopédie and for his philosophical novel Jacques the Fatalist. In this video, Diderot is discussed in relation to other 18th-century thinkers such as Voltaire, Jean-Paul Sartre, and Fernández Sanchez. The video highlights some of the main ideas in Diderot's work, including his thoughts on the role of chance in life and his belief that the only way to achieve true happiness is to live in the moment.

  • 01:00:00 The video discusses the French philosopher Diderot, who is known for his work on the Encyclopédie. Diderot writes in contradictions, accepting that not everyone thinks the same, and this leads to complementary knowledge. He discusses how one can stay with one idea over another, citing examples such as political authority being worth reading, and how freedom is a gift from the heavens. Another contradiction in Diderot's work is that he admires two despotic rulers, one being Catherine the Great of Russia, while also denouncing her son, Emperor Frederick the Great, for his abuses. He spends six months in Russia, during which time he meets the great philosopher Socrates. Diderot praises Socrates for his composure in the face of death, and considers him an exceptional example of how philosophy can prepare one for death. Montaigne said famously that philosophy is a preparation for death - and this is precisely what Diderot practices, through his writings on Zenica. He compares himself to Socrates in that he is a teacher of a degenerate type, who begins well but eventually goes off the rails. However, in the case of Socrates, he dies peacefully, surrounded by emperors, at the end of his life. This final act of Diderot's life
  • 01:05:00 Diderot is a philosopher and writer who is known for his work on the philosophy of life and his Encyclopedie. He is also known for his style of dress, which is simple and not confined by traditional hairstyles. Diderot is a hedonist and believes that the main obligation of a human being is to be happy. This distance him from the stoic zenithian in his essay on the life of Séneca, who writes about the spiritual monastic spirit that does not yet satisfy me. Or, in other words, Diderot renounces pleasures in public. Diderot is a great thinker who is also very private, writing some of his most important works in secret. He identifies more with this because while he's writing his encyclopedia, he's also writing some of his masterpieces, and leaving them unfinished. However, he decides that the contradiction between his writings and himself is too strong, and so he decides to write a defense of Séneca instead. This book becomes very clear about the importance of the context when reading an author, and it is likely that the illustration and design industry is faced with some danger in the current political climate. Art is considered to have its
  • 01:10:00 During the 18th century, writer Denis Diderot wrote three major books, "The Sober Companion," "The Nun," and "The Brother of Jesus." In "The Brother of Jesus," Diderot discusses the paradox of the comedian, which is a fascinating reflection on the art of theatre. Diderot's philosophical work, "The Dream of D'Alembert," is also included in this collection. Diderot's works are often-unpublished manuscripts that are left to chance, and his legacy is an exciting mixture of philosophy and literature.
  • 01:15:00 Denis Diderot's "Jacques the Fatalist" is a philosophical novel that explores the theme of predestination. The novel opens with a sentence that changes the course of literary history, as Denis Diderot declares his independence from traditional literary forms. The book follows the fortunes of Jacques, a fatalistic philosopher, as he undergoes various misfortunes and predicaments. Denis Diderot pays homage to his predecessor, Tristram Shandy, in this novel.
  • 01:20:00 In this video, Diderot discusses the theme of chance in his novel Jacques (or The Fatalist), which follows the journey of a man named Jacques who is plagued by uncertainty and randomness in his life. Diderot argues that chance is an important part of life and that it is impossible to predict what will happen next. The author also discusses the importance of the reader's role in the novel, saying that without their participation, the story would not be complete. Jacques is a novel that deals extensively with the concept of chance, freedom, and destiny. It is a highly controversial work that is full of paradoxes and surprises.
  • 01:25:00 The video discusses the French philosopher Denis Diderot's novel "Jacques et son ami". In the novel, Jacques is a servant who is in a position of subordination to his wealthy master. The video points out that Diderot's novel tackles themes of power and control in a complex way. The main characters are in a constant state of uncertainty, which is a common theme in picaresque novels. The video also discusses Diderot's influence on later French writers, such as Gustave Flaubert.
  • 01:30:00 In the 18th century, the adventure novel was popularized by such writers as Gil Blas. Diderot used Gil Blas therapeutically because when his wife had a bad mood, he said that he applied doses of Gil Blas medicine three times a day to put her in a good mood. He then read Gil Blas because it is a picaresque novel full of humorous events. Once she had taken three doses, she was in a good mood. Another topic of interest to Jacques the Fatalist is society's hypocrisy. For example, people worship appearances, but in his characters, happiness is found in the midst of suffering. This is a world where apparently everything is predetermined, but things happen randomly and unpredictably. Characters in this world seek rebellious and daring happiness. This is perhaps the main shared trait between money and literature: that they allow for levels of interpretation that go beyond what is realistically possible. Jacques the Fatalist's level of fatalism is that everything is predetermined-all is written in his novel, the Great Cylinder. The first level is a level of total determinism-the level of Jacques, who sees everything as written in it. The second level is the level of the captain, who interprets events. A third
  • 01:35:00 In this short clip from Diderot's La alegría del fatalista, the author is discussing how it is impossible to keep track of the plot of a story when it is written in such a disjointed way. He goes on to say that this is the case with novels as well, and that it is a challenge to keep the attention of the reader on one story when there are so many different episodes taking place at once.
  • 01:40:00 This video discusses the life and work of writer and philosopher Denis Diderot. Ludwik Margules' adaptations of classic works of literature into the theater in Mexico were an amazing experience for theater-goers in Mexico. Diderot's novel, Jacques the Fatalist, was one of these adaptations, and it was written when he was prohibited from publishing in Czechoslovakia. Milan Kundera, a Czechoslovakian writer, had invaded Czechoslovakia in 1968, and Diderot was no longer able to publish with his own name. However, one of his colleagues suggested he write an adaptation of a classical work, and Diderot chose Jean Jacques Rousseau's novel, The Social Contract. Kundera discusses some of the thoughts expressed in the novel in his article, "Diderot and the Death of the Author." The video ends with a brief discussion of the life and work of José Bianco, an Argentine writer who wrote about shadows in his book, Shadows. Bianco's article, "The Autopsy of Denis Diderot," discusses the size of Diderot's heart and how it symbolizes his generosity and empathy.
