Description: Life and work of 17th century Cartesian philosopher; by Patricia Easton.
Robert Desgabets (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy) First published Fri Mar 23, 2001; substantive revision Mon Oct 22, 2012 Dom Robert Desgabets (1610–1678) was an earler defender and teacher of the Cartesian philosophy at St. Maur in the region of Lorraine, France. He was born in Ancemont and in 1636 became a monk in the Benedictine order. He taught theology at Saint-Evre at Toul between 1635–1655, and served as Procurer General of Mihiel to Paris during 1648–49. Although he is little-known today, he played an important role in the development and transmission of the Cartesian philosophy, especially in Paris and Toulouse. He is best known for his role in the theological controversy over the Cartesian explication of the Eucharist (Desgabets, 1671), and for his defense of Nicolas Malebranche against the skeptic Simon Foucher (Desgabets, 1675). His major philosophical writings only appeared in print in 1983.
