Story3
Candide, is a French satire written in 1759 by Voltaire, a philosopher of the Age of Enlightenment. One of the finest satires ever written, this lively tale follows the absurdly melodramatic adventures of the youthful Candide, who is forced into the army, flogged, shipwrecked, betrayed, robbed, separated from his beloved Cunégonde, and tortured by the Inquisition. As Candide witnesses calamity upon calamity, he becomes disillusioned and discovers that all is not always for the best....

Story0
Voltaire, einer der schärfsten Denker der Aufklärung, veröffentlichte Candide im Jahr 1759 – ein Jahr, das nicht zufällig gewählt war. Europa war erschüttert vom Siebenjährigen Krieg, das Erdbeben von Lissabon 1755 hatte die metaphysischen Fundamente der Theodizee erschüttert, und die katholische Kirche stand zunehmend unter intellektuellem Beschuss. In diesem Kontext entfaltet Candide seine subversive Kraft: als satirischer Roman, als philosophisches Pamphlet und als literarisches Meisterwerk. Im Zentrum der Erzählung steht die Figur des Dr.

Voltaire's razor-sharp satire on philosophical optimism, Candide, is coupled here with another of the author's most celebrated works, Zadig. Both challenge the moral and philosophical orthodoxies of the day with humor and sly wit, while parodying the clichéd formulas of so many contemporary novels.

Story1
Pangloss would have been right at home in a post-truth, social media world. You can imagine the tweets, “I was hanged and survived #soggyrope,” or, “#nosyphilisnochocolate.” Candide, written in 1759, was never more relevant than today. Blind obeisance and denial, barbarous villainy, greed, and rapacity, are all in a day’s toil for the young Candide. And this is in the best of all possible worlds!

Der Magier Mambres ist 1300 Jahre alt und hat schon Moses auf dessen Denkfehler hingewiesen. Im Laufe seines Lebens hat er natürlich einen ziemlich großen Bekanntenkreis aufgebaut und kennt Hexen, Fakire, den Hund vom Engel Gabriel, Böcke, die Sünden auf sich laden, den Fisch, der Jonasverschlungen hat und viele andere skurrile Geschöpfe unter Gottes beschränktem Himmel. Zu seinen leichtesten Übungen gehört es noch, Wasser in Blut oder Licht in Finsternis zu verwandeln.

In Candide oder Der Optimismus zieht Voltaire mit spitzer Feder gegen den naiven Weltglauben seiner Zeit zu Felde. Der junge Candide durchlebt Krieg, Erdbeben, Inquisition, Raub, Betrug – und bleibt dabei stets seinem optimistischen Lehrsatz treu. Doch die Realität holt ihn ein. Und Voltaire? Der malt ein düsteres, oft komisches und radikal kritisches Bild der Welt – in einer Novelle, die ebenso philosophisch wie unterhaltsam ist.

If we were as tiny as ants to another being, what would they make of our philosophies? The great satirist Voltaire imagines alien visitors who have opinions. Bedtime stories are narrated by the world's most celebrated voices and written with no beginning, middle, or end so you don't stay up to hear what happens next. They're interesting enough to give your mind something to focus on, but delivered in a way that encourages sleep.

Candide and his tutor Pangloss travel the globe trying to follow the philosophy "All is for the best in this, the best of all possible worlds". However, they are stung and let down at every turn, being robbed, tortured, and ridiculed, amongst other trials. On hearing about their often disasterous travels, a listener feels unfortunately less than empathetic, and can't help themselves laughing out loud at this very funny account of the trail our optimistic travellers take.

This is the tale of the happy but ill-fated Candide and his progressive disillusionment with the idea that we live in the best of all possible worlds. His tutor, Dr. Pangloss, embodies this philosophy of good cheer, even in the face of ever more absurd misfortunes. Luckily, Candide's other companions provide an over-supply of good sense.

Das rebellierende Persönlichkeitswesen zeigte sich bereits in jungen Jahren bei Voltaire und er blieb seiner Linie ein Leben lang treu. Er war der Wortführer der Kritik an Staat und Kirche seiner Zeit. Seine Erzählungen spiegeln sein tiefes humanistisches Empfinden, seine ungezügelte Phantasie und seinen rasiermesserscharfen Verstand wider. Als ständiger Kritiker gesellschaftlicher Missstände und Freigeist sind seine Erzählungen Vorboten der am Horizont auflodernden Aufklärung und haben bis heute nichts von ihrer tiefen Menschlichkeit und ihrem Bildungscharakter verloren.
