Published in 1721, Montesquieu's Persian Letters is a novel that relates the fictional correspondence of two Persians traveling in Paris. In their letters, Rica and Usbek relate to their friends their observations on French manners and customs. These surprise them and are the object of their criticisms because they are far from the oriental traditions. They also proved to be a source of learning, reflection and questioning of their opinions. What discoveries does the trip expose you to?
