He achieved literary success with the publication of his 1721 <i><a href="/wiki/Persian_Letters" title="Persian Letters">Persian Letters</a></i> (<a href="/wiki/French_language" title="French language">French</a>: <i lang="fr">Lettres persanes</i>), a satire representing society as seen through the eyes of two <a href="/wiki/Persians" title="Persians">Persian</a> visitors to <a href="/wiki/Paris" title="Paris">Paris</a>, cleverly criticizing absurdities of contemporary French society. The work was an instant classic and accordingly was immediately pirated. In 1722, he went to Paris and entered social circles with the help of friends including the <a href="/wiki/James_FitzJames,_1st_Duke_of_Berwick" title="James FitzJames, 1st Duke of Berwick">Duke of Berwick</a> whom he had known when Berwick was military governor at Bordeaux. He also acquainted himself with the English politician <a href="/wiki/Henry_St_John,_1st_Viscount_Bolingbroke" title="Henry St John, 1st Viscount Bolingbroke">Viscount Bolingbroke</a>, some of whose political views were later reflected in Montesquieu's analysis of the English constitution. In 1726 he sold his office, bored with the parlement and turning more toward Paris. In time, despite some impediments he was elected to the <i>Académie Française</i> in January 1728. </p><p>In April 1728, with Berwick's nephew <a href="/wiki/James_Waldegrave,_1st_Earl_Waldegrave" title="James Waldegrave, 1st Earl Waldegrave">Lord Waldegrave</a> as his traveling companion, Montesquieu embarked on a grand tour of Europe, during which he kept a journal. His travels included Austria and <a href="/wiki/Hungary" title="Hungary">Hungary</a> and a year in Italy. He went to England at the end of October 1729, in the company of <a href="/wiki/Philip_Stanhope,_4th_Earl_of_Chesterfield" title="Philip Stanhope, 4th Earl of Chesterfield">Lord Chesterfield</a>, where he was initiated into Freemasonry at the <i>Horn Tavern</i> Lodge in Westminster.<sup id="cite_ref-15" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-15"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>14<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> He remained in England until the spring of 1731, when he returned to La Brède. Outwardly he seemed to be settling down as a squire: he altered his park in the English fashion, made inquiries into his own genealogy, and asserted his seignorial rights. But he was continuously at work in his study, and his reflections on geography, laws and customs during his travels became the primary sources for his major works on political philosophy at this time.<sup id="cite_ref-16" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-16"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>15<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> He next published <i><a href="/wiki/Considerations_on_the_Causes_of_the_Greatness_of_the_Romans_and_their_Decline" title="Considerations on the Causes of the Greatness of the Romans and their Decline">Considerations on the Causes of the Greatness of the Romans and their Decline</a></i> (1734), among his three best known books. He was to publish <i>The Spirit of Law</i> in 1748, quickly translated into English. It quickly rose to influence <a href="/wiki/Political_thought" class="mw-redirect" title="Political thought">political thought</a> profoundly in Europe and America. In France, the book met with an enthusiastic reception by many but was denounced by the Sorbonne and, in 1751, by the Catholic Church (<a href="/wiki/Index_Librorum_Prohibitorum" title="Index Librorum Prohibitorum">Index of Prohibited Books</a>).

Indeed, the French political anthropologist <a href="/wiki/Georges_Balandier" title="Georges Balandier">Georges Balandier</a> considered Montesquieu to be "the initiator of a scientific enterprise that for a time performed the role of cultural and social anthropology".<sup id="cite_ref-20" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-20"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>19<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> According to social anthropologist <a href="/wiki/D._F._Pocock" class="mw-redirect" title="D.

These should be separate from and dependent upon each other so that the influence of any one power would not be able to exceed that of the other two, either singly or in combination. This was a radical idea because it does not follow the three <a href="/wiki/Estates_of_the_realm" title="Estates of the realm">Estates</a> structure of the French Monarchy: the <a href="/wiki/Clergy" title="Clergy">clergy</a>, the aristocracy, and the people at large represented by the <a href="/wiki/Estates_General_(France)" title="Estates General (France)">Estates-General</a>, thereby erasing the last vestige of a <a href="/wiki/Feudalism" title="Feudalism">feudalistic</a> structure. </p><p>The theory of the <a href="/wiki/Separation_of_powers" title="Separation of powers">separation of powers</a> largely derives from <i>The Spirit of Law</i>: </p> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1244412712"><blockquote class="templatequote"> <p> In every state there are three kinds of power: the legislative authority, the executive authority for things that stem from the law of nations, and the executive authority for those that stem from civil law. </p><p>By virtue of the first, the prince or magistrate enacts temporary or perpetual laws, and amends or abrogates those that have been already enacted. By the second, he makes peace or war, sends or receives embassies, establishes the public security, and provides against invasions. By the third, he punishes criminals, or determines the disputes that arise between individuals. The latter we shall call the judiciary power, and the other, simply, the executive power of the state. </p> <div class="templatequotecite">— <cite><i>The Spirit of Law</i>, XI, 6.</cite></div></blockquote> <p>Montesquieu argues that each power should only exercise its own functions; he is quite explicit here: </p> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1244412712"><blockquote class="templatequote"> <p>When in the same person or in the same body of magistracy the legislative authority is combined with the executive authority, there is no freedom, because one can fear lest the same monarch or the same senate make tyrannical laws in order to carry them out tyrannically. Again there is no freedom if the authority to judge is not separated from the legislative and executive authorities. If it were combined with the legislative authority, power over the life and liberty of the citizens would be arbitrary, for the judge would be the legislator. If it were combined with the executive authority, the judge could have the strength of an oppressor. All would be lost if the same man or the same body of principals, or of nobles, or of the people, exercised these three powers: that of making laws, that of executing public resolutions, and that of judging crimes or disputes between individuals. </p> <div class="templatequotecite">— <cite><i>The Spirit of Law</i>, XI, 6.</cite></div></blockquote> <p>If the legislative branch appoints the executive and judicial powers, as Montesquieu indicated, there will be no separation or division of its powers, since the power to appoint carries with it the power to revoke. </p> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1244412712"><blockquote class="templatequote"><p>The executive authority must be in the hands of a monarch, for this part of the government, which almost always requires immediate action, is better administrated by one than by several, whereas that which depends on the legislative authority is often better organized by several than by one person alone.<br /> </p><p>If there were no monarch, and the executive authority were entrusted to a certain number of persons chosen from the legislative body, that would be the end of freedom, because the two authorities would be combined, the same persons sometimes having, and always in a position to have, a role in both. </p> <div class="templatequotecite">— <cite><i>The Spirit of Law</i>, XI, 6.</cite></div></blockquote> <p>Montesquieu identifies three main forms of government, each supported by a social "principle": <a href="/wiki/Monarchy" title="Monarchy">monarchies</a> (free governments headed by a hereditary figure, e.g. king, queen, emperor), which rely on the principle of honor; <a href="/wiki/Republic" title="Republic">republics</a> (free governments headed by popularly elected leaders), which rely on the principle of virtue; and despotisms (unfree), headed by despots which rely on fear. The free governments are dependent on constitutional arrangements that establish checks and balances. Montesquieu devotes one chapter of <i>The Spirit of Law</i> to a discussion of how the England's constitution sustained liberty (XI, 6), and another to the realities of English politics (XIX, 27). As for France, the intermediate powers (including the nobility) the nobility and the parlements had been weakened by Louis XIV, and welcomed the strengthening of parlementary power in 1715. </p><p>Montesquieu advocated reform of slavery in <i>The Spirit of Law</i>, specifically arguing that slavery was inherently wrong because all humans are born equal,<sup id="cite_ref-:0_24-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:0-24"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>23<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> but that it could perhaps be justified within the context of climates with intense heat, wherein laborers would feel less inclined to work voluntarily.<sup id="cite_ref-:0_24-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:0-24"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>23<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> As part of his advocacy he presented a satirical <a class="external text" href="https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/The_Spirit_of_the_Laws#Book_XV:_How_the_Laws_of_Civil_Slavery_Relate_to_the_Nature_of_Climate">hypothetical list of arguments for slavery</a>.

By placing an emphasis on environmental influences as a material condition of life, Montesquieu prefigured modern anthropology's concern with the impact of material conditions, such as available energy sources, organized production systems, and technologies, on the growth of complex socio-cultural systems. </p><p>He goes so far as to assert that certain climates are more favorable than others, the temperate climate of France being ideal. His view is that people living in very warm countries are "too hot-tempered", while those in northern countries are "icy" or "stiff". The climate of middle Europe is therefore optimal. On this point, Montesquieu may well have been influenced by a similar pronouncement in <a href="/wiki/Histories_(Herodotus)" title="Histories (Herodotus)"><i>The Histories</i> of Herodotus</a>, where he makes a distinction between the "ideal" temperate climate of Greece as opposed to the overly cold climate of Scythia and the overly warm climate of Egypt. This was a common belief at the time, and can also be found within the medical writings of Herodotus' times, including the "On Airs, Waters, Places" of the Hippocratic corpus. One can find a similar statement in <i><a href="/wiki/Germania_(book)" title="Germania (book)">Germania</a></i> by Tacitus, one of Montesquieu's favorite authors. </p><p><a href="/wiki/Philip_M._Parker" title="Philip M. Parker">Philip M. Parker</a>, in his book <i><a href="/wiki/Physioeconomics" title="Physioeconomics">Physioeconomics</a></i> (MIT Press, 2000), endorses Montesquieu's theory and argues that much of the economic variation between countries is explained by the physiological effect of different climates. </p><p>From a sociological perspective, <a href="/wiki/Louis_Althusser" title="Louis Althusser">Louis Althusser</a>, in his analysis of Montesquieu's revolution in method,<sup id="cite_ref-26" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-26"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>25<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> alluded to the seminal character of anthropology's inclusion of material factors, such as climate, in the explanation of social dynamics and political forms. Examples of certain climatic and geographical factors giving rise to increasingly complex social systems include those that were conducive to the rise of agriculture and the domestication of wild plants and animals. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Memorialization">Memorialization</h2></div> <p>Between 1981 and 1994, a depiction of Monetesquieu appeared on the 200 <a href="/wiki/French_franc" title="French franc">French franc</a> note.<sup id="cite_ref-27" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-27"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>26<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:France_200_francs_1983-a.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/54/France_200_francs_1983-a.jpg/220px-France_200_francs_1983-a.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="115" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/54/France_200_francs_1983-a.jpg/330px-France_200_francs_1983-a.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/54/France_200_francs_1983-a.jpg/440px-France_200_francs_1983-a.jpg 2x" data-file-width="974" data-file-height="511" /></a><figcaption>Montesquieu on the 200 French franc note</figcaption></figure> <p>Since 1989, the annual Montesquieu prize has been awarded by the French Association of Historians of Political Ideas for the best French-language thesis on the <a href="/wiki/History_of_political_thought" title="History of political thought">history of political thought</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-28" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-28"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>27<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>On <a href="/wiki/Europe_Day" title="Europe Day">Europe Day</a> 2007, the Montesquieu Institute opened in <a href="/wiki/The_Hague" title="The Hague">The Hague</a>, the Netherlands, with a mission to advance research and education on the parliamentary history and political culture of the <a href="/wiki/European_Union" title="European Union">European Union</a> and its member states.<sup id="cite_ref-29" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-29"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>28<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The Montesquieu tower in <a href="/wiki/Luxembourg" title="Luxembourg">Luxembourg</a> was completed in 2008 as an addition to the <a href="/wiki/Palais_de_la_Cour_de_Justice" title="Palais de la Cour de Justice">headquarters</a> of the <a href="/wiki/Court_of_Justice_of_the_European_Union" title="Court of Justice of the European Union">Court of Justice of the European Union</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-CJEU_30-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-CJEU-30"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>29<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The building houses many of the institution's translation services.
