The System of Nature or of the Laws of the Physical World and the Moral World is a work of philosophy written by Paul-Henri Thiry the Baron d' Holbach 1723-1789. From 1744 to 1748 Holbach studied law and natural sciences and languages at the University. The European intellectual world frequented his Paris salon and his country estate Grandval including Rousseau Helvetius David Hume Garrick Melchior Grimm and above all Diderot whose Encyclopédie Holbach helped finance and for which he wrote at least 400 articles. He also translated German-language works on glassmaking mineralogy and metallurgy into French. It was originally published in French under the name of Jean-Baptiste de Mirabaud a late member of the French Academy of Sciences. D'Holbach wrote and published this book anonymously possibly with the help of Diderot in 1770. Holbach describes the universe in terms of the principles of philosophical materialism: 1 the mind is identified with the brain 2 there is no "soul" without a body alive 3 the world is governed by strict deterministic laws 4 free will is an illusion and 4 there are no final causes as everything happens inexorably. Notably Holbach explicitly denies the existence of God arguing that belief in a higher being is the product of fear ignorance and anthropomorphism. From 1760 onwards Holbach primarily concerned himself with criticism of religion and developed his ideas about it in his main work Système de la nature ou des loix du monde physique et du monde moral 2 vols. 1770; German 1783 published under a pseudonym and with a fictitious place of publication ideal society. The work in which he advocated a materialistically based atheism was banned by the authorities burned publicly and met with harsh criticism from Voltaire Frederick II and Goethe. . Typografia de A.S.
