General Notes:
"The articles ... more of them than there were in the first edition (1945), do not suffer from the condensation they have undergone ... His rapier-thrusts first appeared as Questions on the Encyclopedia [of Diderot] [= Questions sur l'Encyclopédie] then were reprinted as Reason by alphabet [= Raison par alphabet]." -- Editor's note.
