-{{Template}}+{{Template}}The '''''Encyclopédistes''''' were a group of 18th century writers in [[France]] who compiled the ''[[Encyclopédie]]'' edited by [[Denis Diderot]] and [[Jean le Rond d'Alembert]]. Like [[Pierre Bayle]] (1647-1706), who created the ''[[Dictionnaire Historique et Critique]]'', the ''Encyclopédistes'' were part of the intellectual group known as the [[philosophe]]s. They promoted the advancement of science and secular thought, and supported the tolerance, rationality and open-mindedness of the [[Age of Enlightenment|Enlightenment]].
-'''Marie Thérèse Rodet Geoffrin''' ([[June 26]], [[1699]] - [[October 6]], [[1777]])+
-Madame Geoffrin has been referred to as one of the leading female figures in the [[French Enlightenment]]. From 1750-1777, Madame Geoffrin played host to many of the most influential [[Philosophes]] and [[Encyclopédistes]] of her time. Her association with several prominent dignitaries and public figures from across Europe has earned Madame Geoffrin an international spot of recognition. Her patronage and dedication to both the philosophical Men of Letters and talented artists that frequented her house is emblematic of her role as guide and protector. In her [[Salon (gathering)|salon]] on the [[rue Saint-Honoré]], Madame Geoffrin demonstrated qualities of politeness and civility that helped stimulate and regulate intellectual discussion. Her actions as a Parisian salonnière exemplify many of the most important characteristics of Enlightenment sociability. Her role as a salonnière has been hotly contested by many leading academics.+Below the contributors are listed in alphabetical order, by number of articles written, and by identifying letter in the ''Encyclopédie''.
