It begins with a young man Candide who is living a sheltered life in an Edenic paradise and being indoctrinated with Leibnizian optimism by his mentor Pangloss. The work describes the abrupt cessation of this lifestyle followed by Candide's slow painful disillusionment as he witnesses and experiences great hardships in the world. Voltaire concludes with Candide if not rejecting optimism outright advocating an enigmatic precept "we must cultivate our garden" in lieu of the Leibnizian mantra of Pangloss "all is for the best in the best of all possible worlds". Voltaire François-Marie Arouet was a French Enlightenment writer historian and philosopher famous for his wit and for his advocacy of civil liberties including freedom of religion freedom of expression free trade and separation of church and state. He was a prolific writer producing works in almost every literary form including plays poetry novels essays and historical and scientific works. He wrote more than 20000 letters and more than 2000 books and pamphlets.</p> Spastic Cat Press hardcover

First published in 1759 "Candide" is the story of its central character who travels throughout Europe and South America experiencing and witnessing much misfortune on the way. It is within the clever construct of this narrative that Voltaire refutes the philosophy of Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz whose central idea was that life was the best of all possible worlds and that disasters should they occur were harbingers of better things to come. Voltaire found this philosophy insultingly ridiculous and within the humorous and satirical construct of this work he effectively exposes the idiocy of a philosophy that was so pervasive in his time.</p> Digireads.Com hardcover

It concerns the adventures of the youthful Candide disciple of Dr. Pangloss who was himself a disciple of Leibniz. In the course of his travels and adventures in Europe and South America Candide saw and suffered such misfortune that it was difficult for him to believe this was "the best of all possible worlds" as Dr. Pangloss had assured him. Indeed it seemed to be quite the opposite. In brilliantly skewering such naïveté Voltaire mercilessly exposes and satirizes romance science philosophy religion and government -- the ideas and forces that permeate and control the lives of men. After many trials and travails Candide is reunited with Cunegonde his sweetheart. He then buys a little farm in Turkey where he and Cunegonde Dr. Pangloss and others all retire. In the end Candide decides that the best thing in the world is to cultivate one's own garden. A selection of the Common Core State Standards Initiative.</p> www.bnpublishing.com hardcover
