Download or read book Voltaire Six written by John R. Cooke and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2002-08-18 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lieutenant Winston Clark was a helicopter pilot. He is just what he wanted to be and where he wanted to be. When he arrived in Vietnam, he was fresh from the hills of Old Catawba and fully prepared to "bear any burden," as the handsome young president had said.But was he prepared for what awaited him at Les Trungs rubber plantation? Was he prepared for his encounter with the mysterious Frenchman, "Voltaire Six"? Was he prepared for the girl named Genevieve, the girl with the honey-colored hair? And was he prepared for the "68th Buddha" and the climactic and explosive battles of the Tet offensive?Prepared or not, the Top Tigers and the Viet Cong were on a violent collision course and this tour of duty would haunt Lieutenant Clark forever. Voltaire Six is the story of fighting men and women on both sides of the ideological lines rushing down a stormy wind-tunnel of passion, history, and destiny. John Cooke writes with a marvelous sense of character, time, and place. You are there-and you will not forget it.
Download or read book Voltaire Against the Jews or The Limits of Toleration written by Marco Piazza and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-01-01 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book challenges Voltaire’s doctrine of toleration. Can a Jew be a philosopher? And if so, at what cost? It seeks to provide an organic interpretation of Voltaire’s attitude towards Jews, problematising the issue against the background of his theory of toleration. To date, no monograph entirely dedicated to this theme has been written. This book attempts to provide an answer to the crucial questions that have emerged in the past fifty years through a process of reading and analysis that starts with the publication of Des Juifs (1756), and ends with the posthumous publication of the apocryphal article ‘Juifs’ in the Kehl edition of the Dictionnaire Philosophique (1784).

Download or read book Voltaire written by Ian Davidson and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2012-03-12 with total page 429 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The definitive biography of Voltaire's life—from his scandalous love affairs and political maneuverings to his inspired philosophy. We think of Voltaire as the archetypal figure of the enlightenment; in his own time he was also the most famous and controversial figure in Europe. This dazzling new biography celebrates his extraordinary life. Davidson tells the whole, rich story of Voltaire’s life (1694-1778): his early imprisonment in the Bastille; exile in England and his mastery of English; an obsession with money, of which he made a huge amount; a scandalous love life; a long exile on the borders of Switzerland; his human-rights campaigns and his triumphant return to Paris to die there as celebrity extraordinaire. Throughout all of this, Voltaire’s life was always informed by two things: a belief in the essential value of toleration in the face of fanaticism; and in the right of every man to think and say what he liked. It is rare to have such a vivid portrait of a great man.
