Jean-Jacques Rousseau

André le Breton

This collection of of final proofs totaled 318 pages. The collection of proofs is known as the '18th volume' of the Enclyopédie.

In addition, le Breton excluded 3 of Diderot's articles titled, Sectes du Christianisme and Tolérance as well as the subarticle Théologie Scholastique.

Bayle's views were deemed unacceptable because he was critical of the Church and their use of violence.

For example, le Breton did not included a portion of Diderot's article "Menance" that indirectly attacked Joly de Fleury, the French police commissioner. Le Breton also censored Diderot by changing certain words to distort the meaning of the article.

Diderot wrote le Breton a furious letter accusing him of having "massacred" the work and reduced it to a "hodge-podge of insipid clippings".
