Résumé
"A singularity of thought and therefore of style": From Montaigne to La Bruyère and from Pascal to Marivaux Marivaux' reasoning in the Sixth instalment of "Le Cabinet du philosophe" shows that his equation of style and thought, which eliminates style altogether, is ultimately the logic of literary commentary — as is shown by Marivaux' commenting a La Rochefoucauld maxim's wording as ultimately necessary to its meaning.
