邓尼斯?狄德罗致索菲?福朗
邓尼斯?狄德罗（1713—1784），法国启蒙思想家、哲学家、无神论者、文学家。狄德罗出生于法国的朗格尔，童年时曾在教会学校接受教育,19岁时获得巴黎大学文学硕士学位。因为他不愿按照父亲的要求学医或法律，父亲停止了对他的资助，他只好自谋生路。在此期间，狄德罗广泛接触社会，磨炼了自己的意志。1743年，他认识了卢梭。1745年，他应出版商之邀，开始主持编纂《百科全书》，并以《百科全书》的编写和出版为中心，掀起了法国启蒙运动的**。狄德罗对法国、英国、德国的作家和思想家都有过很大的影响。
亲爱的索菲：
我不能不对你说几句话再离开此地。你看，我的宝贝，你对我抱有莫大的期望。你说，你的幸福，甚至你的生命都取决于我是否爱你!
亲爱的索菲，千万不要担心，你将永远拥有我的爱，你会幸福地活下去。我从来没有犯下罪行，也不会去犯罪。我完全属于你——你是我的一切。在人生将要经历的苦难中，我们要同甘共苦；你要除去我的烦恼，我要为你排忧解闷。但愿我能看见你永远像现在这样。至于我自己，你得承认，我就是你第一天见到我时那样，没有任何改变。
这不是我的优点，但确实是心灵的呼声，它表现出一种美好的品质，而且日复一日，你将感受更深。相信我会对你忠贞不渝，我将把你的美德铭刻在心。没有人像我这样合乎情理地对你痴迷。 亲爱的索菲，难道你不亲切可人吗?看看自己吧——看你多么值得爱慕，我又是多么爱你。这就是我永恒不变的感情。
晚安，亲爱的索菲，一个男人得知自己拥有世界上最好的女人的爱，这是多么幸福啊。
你永远的
邓尼斯

Dear Sophie,
I cannot leave this pComce without saying a few words to you. So, my pet, you expect a good deal from me. Your happiness, your life, even depend, you say, upon my ever loving you!
Never fear, my dear Sophie, that will endure, and you shall live, and be happy. I have never committed a crime yet, and am not going to begin. I am wholly yours—you are everything to me. We will sustain each other in all the ills of life it may please fate to inflict upon us; you will soothe my troubles; I will comfort you in yours. Would that I could always see you as you have been Comtely ! As for myself, you must confess that I am just as I was on the first day you saw me.
This is no merit of my own, but I owe it in justice to myself to tell you so. It is one effect of good qualities to be felt more vividly from day to day. Be assured of my constancy to yours, and of my appreciation of them. Never was a passion more justified by reason than mine. Is it not true, my dear Sophie, that you are very ***able? Ex***ne yourself—see how worthy you are of being loved, and know that I love you very much. That is the unvarying standard of my feelings.
Good night, my dear Sophia. I am as happy as man can be in knowing that I am loved by the best of women.
Yours forever，
