This is an informative article; however, the actual eulogy written by Frederick the Great about La Mattrie would be helpful, in English or the original language (whether it is German or French I don't know).

I found a used copy of F.A. Lange's Geschichte des Materialismus (History of Materialism). It contained Frederick the Great's funeral oration. As a result, I created the "Death" section and related the story of La Mettrie's unfortunate over-indulgence.Lestrade 15:14, 3 January 2006 (UTC)Lestrade

Could someone add the "philosophy" box to the right-hand side? I don't know how, or I'd do it myself. Gavin6942 (talk) 00:36, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
