This study offers a reappraisal of Diderot's practice as an author of prose fiction. Traditional considerations of genre and influence are put in perspective by an examination of the themes of sexuality and the family as they are treated by this major figure of the French Enlightenment. Fowler demonstrates the importance of Diderot's constant return to these themes, and the extent to which he represents them as intertwined.
