Commentary
Nicolas Malebranche, né à Paris le 5 août 1638 et mort à Paris le 13 octobre 1715, est un philosophe, prêtre oratorien et théologien français, considéré comme un cartésien. Dans ses œuvres, il a cherché à synthétiser la pensée de saint Augustin et Descartes. Malebranche est surtout connu pour ses doctrines de la Vision des idées en Dieu et de l'occasionnalisme qui lui permettent de démontrer le rôle actif de Dieu dans chaque aspect du monde ainsi que l'entière dépendance de l'âme vis-à-vis de Dieu.
