Book excerpt: In 1767-1768 Voltaire wrote multiple times to the French authorities, whether to persuade them to improve living conditions in the Pays de Gex or to defend his own reputation as a royal historian. He also published plays, short stories and essays on topics as diverse as economics, religious tolerance and literary criticism. His fantasy "La Princesse de Babylone" was widely successful, both as a highly comic tale and an expression of Enlightenment values. Voltaire also turned his hand to comic opera in "Les Deux Tonneaux" and "Le Baron d'Otrante", as well as displaying his now familiar dexterity in verse fable and tragedy. His play "Les Guebres" as a theatrical reworking of the arguments of the "Traite sur la tolerance", which condemned establishment anti-Protestantism, through the story of the persecution of a minority religion under the Roman Empire. Voltaire's work on economic theory displays both his debt to the prevailing views of his time and his independence from them, in regarding human welfare, rather than national power, as the goal of economic activity. In some respects, 1768 can be regarded as a year of relative optimism for Voltaire, in the belief that the philosophic cause was gaining ground.

This book was released on 2021-06-18 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author of more than 2,000 books and pamphlets, Voltaire (François-Marie Arouet, 1694-1778) was one of the most prolific writers of the eighteenth century, and also one of the wittiest and most insightful. This unique collection of over 800 of Voltaire’s wisest passages and choicest bons mots runs the gamut on topics from adultery to Zoroaster, in both English and French. Drawing from a wide range of his publications, private letters, and remarks recorded by his contemporaries, The Quotable Voltaire includes material never before gathered in a single volume. English translations appear alongside the original French, and each quote is thoroughly indexed and referenced, with page numbers for both the first known publication edition of each entry and the most recent edition of Voltaire’s works. The book also features over 400 quotes about Voltaire, including commentary by eighteenth-century luminaries like Samuel Johnson, Catherine the Great, Casanova, and John Adams, as well as an eclectic assortment of modern-day personages ranging from Winston Churchill and Jorge Luis Borges to Mae West and Mike Tyson. Lavishly illustrated with nearly three dozen images of Voltaire-related art, this collection opens with a scholarly essay that recounts the great man’s life and reflects on his outsized influence on Western culture. Whether you are a Voltaire scholar or a neophyte, The Quotable Voltaire is the perfect introduction to a brilliant mind.
