Candide is living a sheltered life and being indoctrinated by his mentor, Professor Pangloss. Voltaire describes the abrupt end of this lifestyle, followed by Candide's slow, disillusionment as he witnesses and experiences hardships in the world.

Candide est un jeune garçon vivant au château du baron de Thunder-ten-tronckh qui se trouve en Westphalien. Il a pour maître Pangloss, philosophe qui enseigne la « métaphysico-théologo-cosmolonigologie », et qui professait, à l'instar de Leibniz, que l'on vit dans le meilleur des mondes possibles -- la philosophie leibnizienne est cependant déformée dans ce que professe Pangloss. Candide est chassé de ce meilleur des mondes possibles à la suite d'un baiser interdit échangé avec Cunégonde, la fille du Baron. Candide découvre alors le monde, et va de déconvenue en déconvenue sur les chemins d'un long voyage initiatique.

La diversité des textes permet de retrouver la verve et l'esprit de l'écrivain philosophe. La diversité des sujets, leurs enjeux dans la pensée voltairienne, leurs correspondances sont riches en significations et sont soutenus par le génie narratif de leur auteur.

Candide, Voltaire's magnum opus, is a matchless satirical take-down of religion, theologians, governments, armies, philosophies, and philosophers. The novella unfolds as the sheltered and privileged Candide, a young man enraptured of his facile mentor Pangloss, experiences the hardships and injustices of life, forcing him to abandon the naïve notion that "all is for the best" in favor of a practical determination that life is best lived "cultivating one's garden." Considered by many to be one of the greatest achievements of Western literature, Candide has influenced modern writers of black humor such as Céline, Joseph Heller, John Barth, Thomas Pynchon, Kurt Vonnegut, and Terry Southern. This Warbler Classics edition includes notes, a glossary, and a detailed biographical timeline of Voltaire's life and work.

Ci saranno sempre dei barbari e delle canaglie che fomenteranno l¿intolleranza. Siamo stati contagiati a tal punto da tale furia che sono scorsi fiumi di sangue e ci siamo sterminati per dei paragrafi. Voltaire Quanto sono attuali queste parole? Immensamente. Il virus dell¿intolleranza, che sembrava estirpato, è tornato a infettare le menti delle persone e ad armare le comunità le une contro le altre. Le conquiste della ragione non sono mai definitive e irreversibili. Devono essere coltivate. È questo il motivo per cui la collana ¿meme¿ vi propone con tre piccoli grandi classici fondativi della cultura della tolleranza: il Trattato sulla tolleranza di Voltaire, il Saggio sulla tolleranza (1687) e la Lettera sulla tolleranza di John Locke. Tre saggi vi introdurranno alla lettura di questi classici del pensiero illuminista e liberale. Una lettura terapeutica contro un virus che rischia di diventare una vera e propria pandemia che va ad aggiungersi a quella che già ci ha flagellato.
