Fatalista Žak i njegov gospodar
"The Fatalist Jacques and his Master" is Diderot's most cheerful, deepest and most original narrative text written in the spirit of paradoxes and contradictions, following the principle of digression. It is a dialogue between the Master and his servant Jacques, who tries to tell his love affairs, interrupted by Jacques' narration of his own adventures, arguing and outwitting the reader, and three novellas woven into the narrative fabric itself. "Rameu's Nephew", in its intention closer to a pamphlet, in its form to a drama, is a conversation between a Philosopher (the writer, "I") and a cynic in the service of a worthless society (anti-encyclopedists - many of the greats of the time; they have real names), the nephew of a famous musician (no name , "He"). Discussions about the incompatibility of virtue and genius, as well as the fear of mediocrity, are topics that bring the interlocutors closer together.
