Voltaire Translated by Theo Cuffe Introduction by Michael Wood
Candide or Optimism
United Kingdom: Penguin Books Ltd 2009. Reprint. Brand new book. Paperback. New/-. -. Voltaire's brilliant satirical assault on what he saw as the naively optimistic philosophy of the Enlightenment Candide or Optimism is a dazzling picaresque novel translated and edited by Theo Cuffe with an introduction by Michael Wood in Penguin Classics. Brought up in the household of a German Baron Candide is an open-minded young man whose tutor Pangloss has instilled in him the belief inspired by Leibniz that 'all is for the best in this the best of all possible worlds'. But when his love for the Baron's rosy-cheeked daughter is discovered Candide is cast out to make his own fortune. As he and his various companions roam over the world an outrageous series of disasters befall them - earthquakes syphilis a brush with the Inquisition murder - sorely testing the young hero's optimism. In Candide Voltaire threw down an audacious challenge to the philosophical views of his time to create one of the most glorious satires of the eighteenth century. Theo Cuffe's translation brilliantly conveys Voltaire's acerbic humour. In his introduction Michael Wood discusses Voltaire's satirical attack on contemporary philosophy. This edition also contains a map extensive notes table of dates further reading and appendices including extracts from Voltaire's Philosophical Dictionary. Francois-Marie Arouet 1694-1778 better known by his pseudonym Voltaire was a French writer and satirist the embodiment of the eighteenth-century Enlightenment. Among his best-known works is the satirical novel Candide 1759. If you enjoyed Candide you might like Laurence Sterne's The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy Gentleman also available in Penguin Classics.
