Erotic Liberalism: Women and Revolution in Montesquieu's Persian Letters
Diana J. Schaub
A treatment of Montesquieu's "Persian Letters", which argues that the novel is a philosophic critique of despotism in all its forms: domestic, political and religious. It shows that Montesquieu believed that the Enlightenment failed as a philosophy by not recognising man as an erotic being.
