Ted is Prof. Walter (Ted) E. Rex (1927-2010), Emeritus Professor of French Literature, University of California, Berkeley. In 1975, Prof. Rex was offered for the first time, together with Professor Daniel Heartz of the Music Department, an interdisciplinary course on music and literature in the French 18th century (especially concerned with Rousseau and Diderot). A brilliant cellist, Rex was known on occasion to play musical examples for the students in the class on his cello. This course and its successor (a course on Mozart and Beaumarchais, again taught with Professor Heartz) would become legendary on campus.

Description:
Washington DC: Peter Lang, 1999. First Edition. . Hardcover. Fine. F/0/1st ed./Signed. Translated by J. Robert Loy. The letters that make up the body of That Infernal Affair reveal the apparently sudden breakdown of the relationships of Rousseau, against a background the Seven Years War, the Lisbon earthquake, and the brutal judicial system of the old Regime in France. Rousseau's break with Diderot represents the watershed separating sentimental attitudes from the rationalism of Enlightenment, a break that still colors Western thought. Book is in Fine condition; clean tight and unmarked inside and out. A very light bump to the front lower corner of the cover. Signed and dated with a brief inscription to previous owner on front free endpaper. A superior copy.
