Candide, ou l'Optimisme (/ËkÃ¦nËdiËd/; French: [kÉÌdid]) is a French satire first published in 1759 by Voltaire, a philosopher of the Age of Enlightenment. The novella has been widely translated, with English versions titled Candide: or, All for the Best (1759); Candide: or, The Optimist (1762); and Candide: or, Optimism (1947).
Voltaire was 65 when Candide was published in 1759. He had led a turbulent life and his writing may reveal a trace of calm exhaustion and wry amusement at the enthusiasm of youth. Rather than change the earth, he seems more to want to belong to it. Of all the characters in Candide, Martinâs voice feels closest to Voltaireâs: âpersuadÃ© quâon est Ã©galement mal partout; il prenait les chooses en patienceâ â persuaded that things are equally bad everywhere, he approached life with phlegm.
