«Lettres persanes» is an epistolary novel by Montesquieu, published by Hachette Education in paperback (160 pages, in French).
Two Persians, Usbek and Rica, arrive in Paris and stay nine years in Europe; in their letters they recount with a surprised gaze the customs, politics, religion and institutions of eighteenth-century France. Through that foreign viewpoint, Montesquieu satirizes the Ancien Régime and practises enlightened criticism.
Edition from the Bibliocollège collection with the subtitle «Choix de lettres»: 40 annotated letters, Montesquieu's two prefaces, questionnaires and iconographic documents for school study.
Intended for students of the French school curriculum and for classroom reading, with supporting didactic material.
Charles Louis de Secondat, baron de La Brède et de Montesquieu, generally referred to as simply Montesquieu, was a French judge, intellectual, historian, and political philosopher.
