The
Dictionairy is described in Wikipedia so I do not understand the question above.
Pierre Bayle is considered an important philosopher. He is one of the early philosophers of the
Enlightenment. His special contribution was the philosophical theory around
tolerance. He established himself in
Rotterdam, around 1681 where he was visited by some of the great thinkers of his time, such as
John Locke. Between 2008 and 2015, a monument to him and his philosophy will be erected in Rotterdam, making him notable in the Netherlands and the Walloon Community (amongst others).
Is there any further information in existence about Bayle's family? In particular, did he have any children or siblings? — C M B J23:25, 2 June 2013 (UTC)reply

General, Historical and Critical Dictionary, in which a new and accurate translation of that of the celebrated Mr. Bayle, with the corrections and observations printed in the late edition at Paris is included, interspersed with several thousand lives never before published. The whole containing the history of the most illustrious persons of all ages and nations, particularly those of great Britain and Ireland, distinguished by their rank, actions, learning and other accomplishments with reflections on such passages of Mr. Bayle as seem to favour scepticism and the Manichi system.
