englischHow can the "foolish" and "mad" moral philosopher La Mettrie be explained?

Above all, his contradictory answers to the central question of the Enlightenment are decisive for this interpretation: is it possible to "educate" people in the spirit of the Enlightenment? If so, to what degree can the state and politics committed to political realism consecrate themselves to this "idealistic" task at all?
