【 摘 要 】

The philosophical reflection of Shaftesbury, John Toland and Anthony Collins were on the way to Enlightenment. Although they were strong supporters of free thought, each one dedicated a work to the theory of dissimulation in writing. How to read the rest of their books? How to read the books of other philosophers who shared with them the same ideals and ways of writing? The article, using the textual evidence of dissimulation in these authors' books, intends to re-examine the theoretical proposal of Leo Strauss by promoting its «reading between lines». Discussing his critics, notably Quentin Skinner, we will try to show how the «art of reading» is essential for a full understanding of the thinkers of the early Enlightenment.
