| Research Abstract |
The present study aimed to explore relationship between the form and the content of the fictions written by radical French philosophers in the eighteenth century. In the result, two points were especially clarified: (1) literary mechanisms of Lettres persanes, such as letters, translations, allegories, and satires, by which Montesquieu represents his critical attitudes toward the despotism, and (2) literary mechanisms of Diderot's novels, such as narratives, plots, dialogues, and figures, by whichhe represents the idea of “the limitations of the human beings."
