Persische Briefe
¥9.00
Die "Lettres persanes" (erste Ausgabe 1721) des franz?sischen Staatsphilosophen der Aufkl?rung Charles-Louis de Secondat, Baron de La Brède de Montesquieu (so sein vollst?ndiger Name) ist eines der wirkm?chtigsten Bücher der Weltliteratur, zugleich eines der erfolgreichsten zu seiner Zeit. Es ist nach der franz?sischen Revolution allerdings zunehmend in den Schatten von Montesquieus Hauptwerk, "De l’esprit des loix" (1748, Vom Geist der Gesetze), getreten, obwohl es im Vergleich zu den politischen Positionen in den Persischen Briefen durchaus als Rückschritt betrachtet werden kann. Im Gegensatz zu dem Hauptwerk gehen die Persischen Briefe unterhaltsam und satirisch an die zentralen Fragestellungen der Zeit heran; wenn man bedenkt, dass es dem Verfasser vor allem darum zu tun gewesen sein soll, mit diesem Text seine Aufnahme in die Academie fran?aise, die er in den Briefen noch dazu geh?rig verspottet, zu erreichen - was ihm auch gelang -, dann dr?ngt sich der Gedanke auf, dass das Selbstinteresse einmal mehr einen Zweck durchgesetzt hat, den es gar nicht vordringlich verfolgte.
