""Letters Between Frederic II And M. D�������Alembert"" is a collection of correspondence between the renowned philosopher and mathematician, Jean Le Rond d'Alembert, and the King of Prussia, Frederick II. The letters, written between 1760 and 1763, cover a wide range of topics including politics, philosophy, literature, and science. The exchange between the two men is marked by a deep respect for each other's intellect and a shared love of learning.

This edition of the letters was published in 1789, shortly after d'Alembert's death, and includes an introduction by the editor, as well as footnotes and annotations to provide context for the reader.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
