Voltaire Biography François-Marie Arouet (November 21, 1694—May 30, 1778), better known by the pen name Voltaire, was a French Enlightenment writer, deist and philosopher. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltaire [Jan 2005] Profile Voltaire was the icon -at-large and philosopher- punk of the Age of Reason. He's best known for his tale Candide , which expressed his contempt for those among his contemporaries who denied the existence of evil . Voltaire was an original flamer, creating that top note of bitchiness without which the arrogance of French philosophy would have been impossible. He offended so many people during his career that many were surprised he died of natural causes, in old age. R.U. Sirius

Back to Modern History Sourcebook Back toHistory of Science Sourcebook Voltaire Letters on Newton from the Letters on the English or Lettres Philosophiques, c. 1778 Introduction Letter XIV: On Descartes and Sir Isaac Newton Letter XV: On Attraction Letter XVI: On Sir Isaac Newton's Optics Letter XVII: On Infinites in Geometry, and Sir Isaac Newton's Chronology Letter XIV : On Descartes And Sir Isaac Newton A Frenchman who arrives in London, will find philosophy, like everything else, very much changed there. He had left the world a plenum, and he now finds it a vacuum. At Paris the universe is seen composed of vortices of subtile matter; but nothing like it is seen in London. In France, it is the pressure of the moon that causes the tides; but in England it is the sea that gravitates towards the moon; so that when you think that the moon should make it flood with us, those gentlemen fancy it should be ebb, which very unluckily cannot be proved. For to be able to do this, it is necessary the moon and the tides should have been inquired into at the very instant of the creation. You will observe farther, that the sun, which in France is said to have nothing to do in the affair, comes in here for very near a quarter of its assistance. According to your Cartesians, everything is performed by an impulsion, of which we have very little notion; and according to Sir Isaac Newton, it is by an attraction, the cause of which is as much unknown to us. At Paris you imagine that the earth is shaped like a melon, or of an oblique figure; at London it has an oblate one. A Cartesian declares that light exists in the air; but a Newtonian asserts that it comes from the sun in six minutes and a half. The several operations of your chemistry are performed by acids, alkalies and subtile matter; but attraction prevails even in chemistry among the English.

FRANCOIS-MARIE AROUET DE VOLTAIRE (1694-1778) Voltaire, a great French literary figure, was a popularizer of the science of Newton. He is most famous for his novel Candide in which he makes fun of Leibniz who held that this is the best of all possible worlds. Voltaire Time Line 1694 November 21, born in Paris to a wealthy family. As a child he is influenced by his mother's friends in the belles-letters and deism. Shows early ability to write verse. 1704 Sent to the College Louis-le-Grand, a Jesuit institution, where, in addition to a sound classical education, he was exposed to stage-plays in both Latin and French which may account for the interest he had in the stage throughout his life. 1711 He returns home and, desiring to devote himself to literature, struggles against his father's wish that he studies law. He gives in briefly but soon abandons study of law altogether. 1713 After falling in with a loose crowd, his father sends him to Holland. Upon his return to Paris he works briefly in a lawyer's office. 1714 His satirical poems get him in trouble and his father sends him away once more, this time to the marquis de Saint-Ange who lives in the country.

Home Contents Bookshelf VOLTAIRE (1694-1778) By M. C. Lockwood , D.D. In order to justly estimate the life, character, and genius of a man it is necessary to possess some knowledge of the environments and heredity which generated him. Any study of Voltaire which ignores these influences will fail not only in doing him justice, but in comprehending his unique and exceptional place in history. The most careful examination of these, together with the voluminous bibliography relating to Voltaire provided by French, German, and English literature, still will leave him something of an enigma. The stage properties and scenery were prepared for the great Frenchman long before he appeared, as is always the case with the famous actors in the drama of history. The time in which he was born was that of Louis XIV., king by divine right, whose history is that of one who was more the tinsel-robed actor, strutting in the semblance of royalty, and less the king than many "A poor player Who struts and frets his hour upon the stage, And then is heard no more."

37. Voltaire (1694-1778) French author and philosopher (true name Fran oisMarie Arouet), one of the leading figures of the French Enlightenment. His best-known work today is Candide (1758), a satire http://cwx.prenhall.com/bookbind/pubbooks/masterworks/medialib/timelines/05highb

Voltaire Candide (1758), a satire on optimism. (The young Candide is beset by war, Inquisition, earthquake, and sharks in this "best of all possible worlds.") In his lifetime Voltaire was famous primarily for his poetry and stage works; now he is more valued for his contributions to philosophy in Philosophical Letters (1734) and The Philosophical Dictionary (1764) and as leader of the reformist group called the philosophes. He was often in trouble for his views, spending a year imprisoned in the Bastille, another year as an exile in England, and a long sojourn at the court of Frederick the Great. His concept of history as an all-inclusive treatment of civilization rather than a catalogue of political events made it possible for people to think in terms of permanently valuable "classics" and stylistic evolution. These ideas positively and deeply affected the self-perception of composers, as well as the attitudes and expectations of performers and audiences. Back to Timeline
