«Supplément au voyage de Bougainville» is the philosophical dialogue by Denis Diderot published by Le Livre de Poche in paperback (128 pages, in French).
In 1772 Diderot imagined a supplement to Bougainville's «Voyage autour du monde»: a dialogue between A and B. It includes the farewell of an elderly Tahitian and the chaplain's conversation with Orou, passages that question the certainties of European society and defend freedom of customs against civilized morality.
The work originally appeared in 1773; this French edition belongs to the Libretti collection of Le Livre de Poche.
Aimed at readers interested in the Enlightenment, moral philosophy, and classics of eighteenth-century French literature.
Denis Diderot was a French philosopher, art critic, and writer, best known for serving as co-founder, chief editor, and contributor to the Encyclopédie along with Jean le Rond d'Alembert. He was a prominent figure during the Age of Enlightenment.
