21 November 30 May ), better known by the pen name Voltaire , was a French Enlightenment writer, essayist, deist and philosopher known for his wit, philosophical sport, and defense of civil liberties, including freedom of religion and free trade. Voltaire was a prolific writer, and produced works in almost every literary form, authoring plays, poetry novels essays, historical and scientific works, over 20,000 letters and over two thousand books and pamphlets. He was an outspoken supporter of social reform despite strict censorship laws and harsh penalties for those who broke them. A satirical polemicist, he frequently made use of his works to criticize Catholic Church dogma and the French institutions of his day. Voltaire was one of several Enlightenment figures (along with John Locke and Thomas Hobbes ) whose works and ideas influenced important thinkers of both the American and French Revolutions

The Mick Sinclair Archive Cabaret Voltaire November Sounds live review CABARET VOLTAIRE Sheffield University Being in the delectable main hall of Sheffield University is likestepping into the interior of some vast gas works. The place is all jutting pipes and strange angles of symmetry, the whole room being constructed in the shape of a something -agram (I lost count of the corners) with a kind of inverted trampoline thing pinned onto the roof. It's a design to match the nature of the city, of course, yet this overtly industrial piece of architecture oddly glows with a warmth and cosiness. A setting, on the face of it, a trifle too smug for the expected impact of tonight's entertainment. There are a selection of film shorts and videos (even Cabs-own clips) running for 90 minutes or so before the arrival of the group. A curious blurring action. It felt as if they'd already arrived before they actually had. Furthermore, there's an eerie switch from screen watching to people watching. Particularly as, in the case of the Cabs, you can only 'watch' fleeting details in a wider field of scattered vision.

Voltaire in 1718. Portrait by Nicolas de Largillière (1656-1746). Voltaire (François-Marie Arouet) (November 21, 1694 – May 30, 1778) was a prolific writer, philosopher, poet and pamphletist, and the preeminent figure of the eighteenth-century French Enlightenment. An acerbic social critic, Voltaire condemned injustice, clerical abuses, prejudice , and fanaticism. He rejected formalized religion, which he saw as superstitious and irrational, although as a deist , he believed in a supreme being. Voltaire emphasized reason , despised democracy as the rule of the mob, and believed that an enlightened monarchy , informed by the counsels of the wise, was best suited to govern. Though Voltaire used the weapon of his wit primarily against corrupt institutions, first and foremost the Church, his attacks also aimed at revealed religion itself. His often considerable cynicism in these matters should nevertheless be seen in the context of the abysmal condition of religious life in eighteenth-century France, particularly among the educated classes. The utilitarian deism promoted by Voltaire, with its emphasis on

Voltaire
Letters on the English or Lettres Philosophiques, c. 1778
Introduction Francois-Marie Arouet, known by his assumed name of Voltaire, was born at Paris, November 21, 1694. His father was a well-to-do notary, and Francois was educated under the Jesuits in the College Louis-le-Grand. He began writing verse early, and was noted for his freedom of speech, a tendency which led to his being twice exiled from Paris and twice imprisoned in the Bastile. In 1726 he took refuge in England, and the two years spent there had great influence upon his later development. Some years after his return he became historiographer of France, and gentleman of the king's bedchamber; from 1750 to 1753 he lived at the court of Frederick the Great, with whom he ultimately quarreled; and he spent the last period of his life, from 1758 to 1778, on his estate of Ferney, near Geneva, where he produced much of his best work. He died at Paris, May 30, 1778.

Francois Marie Arouet de Voltaire
born: Nov. 21, 1694 died: May 30, 1778 France's Greatest Writer In the 18th century, at a time when French culture dominated Europe, Voltaire dominated French culture. His writing includes a vast amount of work in almost every literary form, including 56 plays, dialogues, historical writing, stories and novels, poetry and epic poems, essays, scientific and learned papers, pamphlets, book reviews, and more than 20,000 letters. Voltaire was born November 21, 1694 and lived to age 83. He chose a career as a writer against the wishes of his father who said he couldn't earn a living as a writer. However, by the time he was forty years old, Voltaire was both a well-known writer and a wealthy man. A Writer for Social Reform Voltaire is known for his philosophical writing, his great wit, and as a crusader against injustice, intolerance, cruelty, and war. In France, in the 1700's, he was the most outspoken writer who supported political and social reform. Because his writing criticized the King and the Church, he lived most of his life in constant fear of being jailed. Thus, he spent comparatively few years of his life in Paris, where his stay was either forbidden or too dangerous. Voltaire was the son of a notary. He attended the Jesuit College Louis-le-Grand from age 9 to age 17. After leaving school, his father found employment for him working in a law office, but Voltaire wished to devote himself to literature. He spent much of his time in Paris salons and became the wit of Parisian society.
