Barbey (Jules Barbey) Aurevilly, J. Barbey d' (Jules Barbey d') d'Aurevilly, Jules Barbey Philosophes et Écrivains Religieux E-text prepared by Anna Tuinman, Sophie, Jana Srna, Norbert H. Langkau, "Philosophes et Écrivains Religieux" by J. Barbey d'Aurevilly is a critical examination written in the late 19th century. The work aims to explore and inventory the intellectual landscape of the 19th century, focusing on its philosophers and religious writers, while also offering insights into the broader literary context. The author espouses a bold, irreverent form of critique that challenges prevailing norms and addresses the relationship between literature, its creators, and societal values. At the start of this work, the author dedicates his book to his brother, a priest, expressing a reverence for the religious authority and moral weight that priests carry, contrasting it with the often-creeping superficialities of writers. In the preface, Barbey d'Aurevilly outlines his ambitious project to catalog contemporary thought, echoing the attempts of previous critics like La Harpe, albeit with a more personal and incisive approach. He underscores the necessity of evaluating not just the works but also the individuals behind them, proposing a new form of literary critique that is unapologetically personal, clear, and fearless. This sets the stage for his examination of key figures and themes in both philosophy and literature that transcend mere historical relevance, presenting fresh perspectives on enduring intellectual debates.
