Les Provinciales, by Blaise Pascal, is a seminal work of French literature and philosophy. Originally published in 1656-1657, these eighteen letters, written under the pseudonym Louis de Montalte, fiercely defend the Jansenist Antoine Arnauld against attacks by the Jesuits within the Sorbonne. Pascal’s wit and rhetorical skill made Les Provinciales a powerful critique of casuistry, a method of moral reasoning employed by the Jesuits. Beyond their immediate theological and political context, the letters offer profound insights into issues of morality, justice, and the use of language. This edition invites readers to engage with Pascal’s enduring arguments and appreciate the historical and literary significance of Les Provinciales.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
