Voltaire

1. Pseudonym: François-Marie Arouet, better known by his pen name Voltaire (pronounced “vole-tyr”), was a French Enlightenment writer, historian, and philosopher. The pseudonym “Voltaire” was adopted due to its Latinized form of “Eolide,” which means “country dweller.”

1. Influential Works: Voltaire is celebrated for his numerous works, including satirical novels like “Candide” (1759), philosophical essays such as “Philosophical Letters” (1734), and historical accounts such as “The Age of Louis XIV” (1751). His writings are noted for their wit, sharp criticism of religious intolerance and superstition, and advocacy for freedom of speech.

2. Advocate for Freedom of Thought: Voltaire was a staunch defender of free thought and expression. He famously said, “I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.” This quote encapsulates his commitment to liberty of thought and speech, even for ideas he personally opposed.

3. Exile and Return: Due to his controversial writings criticizing the French monarchy and the Catholic Church, Voltaire was imprisoned in the Bastille for ten months in 1717 and later spent three years in exile in England from 1726 to 1729. His experiences abroad allowed him to witness and appreciate British political liberties, which greatly influenced his philosophical views.

4. Last Words: Voltaire’s last words are often quoted as “Je n’ai pas eu le temps de vivre pour moi-même – il faut qu’une multitude d’hommes me survivent pour avoir une gloire” (I haven’t had time to live for myself – one must outlive me by thousands of men to have glory). This quote reflects his preoccupation with leaving a lasting legacy through his writings. He passed away on May 30, 1778, in Paris at the age of 83.
