Links Voltaire The French writer and philosopher Voltaire (1694-1778) was born in Paris as François Marie Arouet and is regarded as the most important philosopher of the Enlightenment. Voltaire did not write only philosophical books and essays but also dramas, novels, historical books, theater reviews and essays on criminal laws and politics. His early satires with criticism on politics and the court resulted in his imprisonment in the Bastille (1717). After the successful performance of the tragedy "Oedipe" (1719), which was based on a Greek drama Voltaire became a famous Parisian, but soon he was imprisoned again. In 1726 Voltaire left France and lived for several years in exile in London. In his "Lettres anglaises" (1734) he criticized the old regimes and called for social progress. To avoid arrest Voltaire fled to Lorraine in 1733, where he would stay for ten years. Here he wrote his most important books and essays on humanity and tolerance in religion. A long-standing invitation from Frederick II of Prussia to become a permanent resident at the Prussian court in Berlin was accepted by Voltaire in 1750.

Voltaire born Nov. 21, 1694, Paris, France ied May 30, 1778, Paris One of the greatest 18th-century European authors, remembered as a crusader against tyranny and bigotry and noted for his wit, satire, and vigorous critical capacity. Born of middle-class parents and educated by the Jesuits at the college of Louis-le-Grand in Paris, Voltaire studied law for a time but abandoned it to become a writer. He made his name with classical tragedies and continued to write for the theatre all his life. Voltaire's epic poem La Henriade was well-received, but his lampoons of the Regency and his liberal religious opinions caused offense. He was imprisoned in the Bastille for nearly a year (1717), and in 1726 he was driven into exile in England, where his philosophical interests deepened. In 1750, Voltaire accepted an invitation from Frederick II (1752), Zadig (1747), and Candide Sources Encylopedia Britannica 2002, Expanded Edition DVD Web Pages Voltaire Society of America Voltaire Foundation (Oxford)

Judge (in the same way as you would judge your own) the behaviour of a dog who has lost his master, who has searched for him in the road barking miserably, who has come back to the house restless and anxious, who has run upstairs and down, from room to room, and who has found the beloved master at last in his study, and then shown his joy by barks, bounds and caresses. There are some barbarians who will take this dog, that so greatly excels man in capacity for friendship, who will nail him to a table, and dissect him alive, in order to show you his veins and nerves. And what you then discover in him are all the same organs of sensation that you have in yourself . Answer me, mechanist, has Nature arranged all the springs of feeling in this animal

Disease has no energy save what it borrows from the life of the organism. It is by adjusting the life force that healing must be brought about, and it is the sun as transformer and distributor of primal spiritual energy that must be utilized in this process, for life and the sun are so intimately connected. Kabbalah (B.C. 1200?-700? A.D.) Men worry over the great number of diseases, while doctors worry over the scarcity of effective remedies. Pien Ch'iao (fl. B.C. 255) Some remedies are worse than the disease. Publilius Syrus (fl. B.C. 42) Prevention is better than cure. Erasmus (1466-1536) Medicine is not only a science; it is also an art. It does not consist of compounding pills and plasters; it deals with the very processes of life, which must be understood before they may be guided. Paracelsus (1493-1541) Once a disease has entered the body, all parts which are healthy must fight it: not one alone, but all. Because a disease might mean their common death. Nature knows this; and Nature attacks the disease with whatever help she can muster. Paracelsus (1493-1541) The poets did well to conjoin music and medicine, because the office of medicine is but to tune the curious harp of man's body.

KennisQuiz.nl Voltaire De Fransman Voltaire (1694-1778) werd geboren in Parijs als François Marie Arouet. Deze schrijver en filosoof wordt als de belangrijkste vertegenwoordiger van de verlichting beschouwd. Voltaire schreef niet alleen filosofische boeken en artikelen maar ook drama, romans, geschiedkundige werken, theaterrecensies en essays over strafrecht en staatkundige aangelegenheden. Zijn satirische geschriften met kritiek op de regering en het hof brachten hem al vroeg in problemen. In 1717 werd hij hiervoor zelfs opgesloten in de Bastille. Na de succesvolle uitvoering van zijn tragedie "Oedipus" (1719) werd hij echter de geliefde hofdichter en stond hij in de gunst van de koning tot hij opnieuw in opspraak raakte. In 1726 week Voltaire uit naar Engeland. Door zijn werk "Lettres anglaises" (1734), waarin hij het politieke leven in Engeland en Frankrijk vergeleek, raakte hij opnieuw in de knel.

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
