Overview
In c.1725, Freret published Letter of Thrasybulus to Leucippus, which is stylized as an ancient Greco-Roman document from one friend to another, namely a fictional Thrasybulus to Leucippus, offering guidance in protecting him from the temptation of religion through rational comparison of religious belief. [1]
In 1768, Jacques Naigeon was referring to Letter of Thrasybulus to Leucippus, for some reason, in reference to Baron Holbach’s Letter to Eugenia. [2]
