2010réf. 260930VFD006005Oxford: The Voltaire Foundation 2010. First edition. Hardcover. Very Good Condition. 22.9 x 15.2 x 3.3 cm. This is a former Voltaire Foundation library copy and is stamped 'Voltaire Foundation Library' on the front free endpaper. There are no other stamps or markings and in all other respects it is a brand new unread copy. Publisher's note: Voltaire's most scathingly anti-Christian text the Sermon des cinquante of which he consistently denied authorship develops the arguments he was to use over the coming decades in a multitude of virulent texts. In the period 1758-1759 biblical questions remain prominent with the Letter on the Messiah and in a gentler tone the Precis of Ecclesiastes and Precis of the Song of Songs . These years also saw the culmination of a long-brewing quarrel over the reputation of the deceased minister Joseph Saurin which brought Voltaire's stay in Lausanne to a close. A series of philosophical dialogues and a tale round out his literary productions of this two-year span. Size: 22.9 x 15.2 x 3.3 cm. 526 pp. Text is in French. Shipped Weight: 1-2 kilos.

This is a former Voltaire Foundation library copy and is stamped 'Voltaire Foundation Library' on the front pastedown. There are no other stamps or markings and in all other respects it is a brand new unread copy. Publisher's note: Voltaire's library acquired by Catherine II was installed at the Hermitage in 1779. Made up of acquisitions made over several decades the library served as a source of documentation for Voltaire to write various works novels plays articles pamphlets etc. The countless reading notes left by Voltaire in more than half of his books testify to his extraordinary capacity for work and the crucial role played by his library. These notes and other traces of reading are reproduced in full in this edition of the marginalia along with the texts to which they refer arranged exactly as in the original.

2001réf. 260930VFD006003Oxford: The Voltaire Foundation 2001. First edition. Hardcover. Very Good Condition. 24. x 15.5 x 3.7 cm. Stamped 'Voltaire Foundation LIbrary' on front free endpaper. All pages unmarked and uncreased. Bindings and spine firm. All in all sound and serviceable. Publisher's note: In 1762 Voltaire was at the height of his career his output manifold and unceasing despite his being close to 70 years of age. This was the period of Voltaires life in which his famous battle cry Ecrasez lInfâme! was first used as Voltaires attacks on the Christian establishment came to a head with the case of Jean Calas executed for murder in Toulouse whom Voltaire believed to be an innocent victim of anti-protestant prejudice. This volume contains the Testament de Jean Meslier a priest recruited to aid in the denunciation of miracles prophecies and spiritual contradictions and a strategically invaluable ally for the dissident Voltaire. There is also the satirical Eloge de M. de Crébillon a petty posthumous attack on the literary works of Voltaires deceased enemy Crébillion and Saül a play about the biblical Saul and David in which heroic subject matter is instead dominated by burlesque absurdity and irony.

This is a former Voltaire Foundation library copy and is stamped 'Voltaire Foundation Library' on the front free endpaper. There are no other stamps or markings and in all other respects it is a brand new unread copy. Publisher's note: In the wide range of essays poems and pamphlets contained in this volume we witness Voltaire exercising his polemical powers on a remarkable multiplicity of fronts only a matter of months before he got involved in the Calas affair. Most notably he offers a spirited defense of French classical theater against English influence in Appel à tous les nations he launches a fierce attack against Rousseau in Lettres sur la Nouvelle Héloïse and Rescript de l'école de la Chine and exposes the injustice of the excommunication of actors in Conversation de M. l'intendant des Menus . Confrontation between the embattled encyclopedists and an increasingly confident and aggressive anti-philosopher faction in the Paris Parlement and Versailles also links a number of miscellaneous texts together in this volume. Size: 22.9 x 15.2 x 3.8 cm. 596 pp. Text is in French. Shipped Weight: 1-2 kilos.

All pages unmarked and uncreased. Bindings and spine firm. All in all sound and serviceable. Publisher's note: This volume brings together many of Voltaires most controversial reflections on religion and philosophy. In Le Philosophe ignorant Voltaire summarises his doubts about the philosophers of his age and theories of systematization seeking to show the limits of metaphysics. LExamen important de milord Bolingbroke is a polemical work which uses the excuse of being a translation of a letter from the English Lord Bolingbroke to diffuse Voltaires own radical views. André Destouches à Siam is a satirical dialogue between a French musician and a Siamese bureaucrat presenting a utopian society in which the justice system is arbitrary based on archaic traditions and religious fanaticism. Les Questions de Zapata was published as a pamphlet purportedly by a professor of theology in Salamanca on the inconsistencies of the Old and New Testament.
