The will, the desire, the pleasure of knowledge :<br />
the notion of libido sciendi in the texts of French Enlightenment<br />
Lee, Young-Mock<br />
The libido sciendi had been considered in the traditional christian<br />
society as suspect and even reprehensible, for it derives from the<br />
original sin of human beings. In the literature and the philosophy<br />
of French Enlightenment, we can note however a process of<br />
rehabilitation of the notion.<br />
This article aims to examine the role the notion assumes in the<br />
texts of main french philosophers of the eighteenth century, to<br />
observe its variations in their texts and to understand the notion in<br />
a larger context of the philosophy of Enlightenment.<br />
At the end of this examination, we will see that one of the most<br />
important changes enabled by the literature and the philosophy of<br />
French Enlightenment lies in the very change of attitude before the<br />
knowledge. No more an object of interdiction or of taboo, the<br />
desire of knowledge is fully recognized as a fundamental right and<br />
a fundamental source of pleasure of human beings.<br />
