“O que vem à tona com a discussão que Diderot faz de sensibilité é a imanentização da alma (Vassányi, 2008), que, de acordo com Clark, resulta em uma continuidade do movimento que faz da “alma e do corpo instrumentos um do outro” (Clark, 2008, p. 61).”

- “En un mot la sensation qui nous fait connoître l'étendue, est par sa nature aussi incompréhensible que l'étendue même. Ainsi l'essence de la matiére, et la maniére dont nous en formons l'idée restera toujours couverte de nuages.”

- 1780. Le Rêve 270 Thus, had, for all intents and purposes, been written in 1769, revised several times during the 1770's, then ‘published’ in 1782 as a supplement to the manuscriptCorrespondance littéraire(a subscription periodical) by Diderot's intimate friend, F.M. Grimm. As is known, this periodical reached almost exclusively a select, high aristocratic public outside France, among them several illustrious princes and monarchs all over Europe.Le Rêve, then, was not published as a book (i.e. in a universally available form) until as late as 1830. ThePrincipes philosophiques sur la matiére et le mouvementis a brief but pithy manuscript of 1770, which was only posthumously published by Diderot's devoted disciple Naigeon as part of an anthology in 1792—eight years after Diderot's death in 1784. Finally, thePhysiologie(the great systematic work of the aged philosopher, on which he worked until his last days) is philologically problematic even in its title. It is traditionally referred to asÉléments de la physiologie, but there is good evidence that the title given by its author was simplyPhysiologie(a less ambitious formula; see theIntroductionby J. Mayer in the critical edition of Dieckmann and Varloot, vol. XVII, p.). It is also certain that the autographicultima manusversion is lost, so we do not know about any last changes Diderot made to his text. We do know, however, that the better copy (i.e. that of thefonds Vandeul, the collection of documents Diderot left to his son-in-law in Paris) of the two extant, and substantially different, copies is from about
- “Sans la vie, nulle distinction entre l'homme et son cadavre. Le cerveau, ou le cervelet avec les nerfs qui n'en sont que des expansions filamenteuses et solides, forment un tout sensible, continu, énergique et vivant: il ne faut pas chercher comment ce tout vit, nous l'ignorons.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
