The article questions the Leibnizian conception of imposture and, particularly, an instance in a text from the end of the 1670s, Dialogus inter theologum et misosophum, in which Leibniz seizes on this theme and turns it against the libertines. For Leibniz, imposture is created in relation to the theory of double truth. This contribution also shows the relationship between the Leibnizian critique of the libertines’ imposture and what Leibniz perceives as the “hidden atheism” of Spinoza.
