Abstract
- Chapter 3 of the book "Philosophy History Sophistry" is presented. It discusses the connection of dogmatic excesses and fanatical errors of the (Red) terror with French Renaissance writer Michel de Montaigne and French philosopher Ren&#x00U9; Descartes. It highlights the interpretation of a study carried out by mathematicians which depicts that functioning of probability between science and nescience does not fit in the schematism's of Descartes.
