In this series we listen to short stories that are NOT by perhaps the most well-known author of this type. But the many other rich talents in the volume may have treated the subject matter a little differently, or were perhaps just overlooked in the stampede to applaud the winner, but these authors are of equal merit. Each of their works is laden with talent, has purpose, and is rich and textured in this gloried niche of literature.

Short stories have always been a sort of instant access into an author’s brain, their soul and heart. They can lift our lives into locations, people and experiences with a sweep of landscape, narration, feelings and emotions that are difficult to achieve elsewhere. The City of Lights may be one of the glories of the world but for those whose three score and ten have passed it is the final resting place for some of the very finest of literary talents.

Aydınlanma Çağının (Fr. Le siècle des Lumières: 17151789) en ünlü filozoflarından olan Voltaire’in başyapıtı kabul edilen Candide, Ocak 1759’da Cenevre’de, Doktor Ralph diye birine ait Almanca bir eserin Fransızca çevirisiymiş gibi yayımlandı. Voltaire daha hayattayken elli baskısı yapıldı ve birçok dile çevirildi. Voltaire Candide’i, Alman filozof Leibniz’in “Tanrı kusursuzdur, dünya mükemmel olmayabilir ama Tanrı onu mümkün olan en iyi biçimde yaratmıştır. Kötülük her an mevcuttur ancak sonsuz bir iyilikle dengelenmiştir.”

Ein sehr früher Science-Fiction-Roman. Hier wird auf Kometen geritten und auf dem Ring des Saturn Pause gemacht. Zwei riesengroße Aliens kommen auf die Erde und freunden sich mit einer Horde Philosophen an. Ein früher philosophischer Roman. Die eben vor sich gehende Verwandlung der Welt durch die Wissenschaft ist genügender Gesprächsstoff. Und durch das ganze Werklein geht das laute Lachen Voltaires.

Voltaire war kein Philosoph mit einem System. Er war DER Intellektuelle seiner Zeit und verteilte in Aufsätzen, Briefen und Pamphleten als Kritiker seiner Zeit und dessen Geistes seine Schläge rundum. Zum Beispiel werden Descartes, Pascal oder Rousseau mit entschiedenen Gesten des Platzes verwiesen. Er macht sich Gedanken zur Freiheit, zum Materialismus, zur Seele, den Sternen (Gott nicht zu vergessen) vom Wert des Lebens und vom Tod und verfasst einen noch heute gültigen Aufsatz wider den Krieg. Er ist jemand, der noch heute aufklärt.

Aunque Voltaire empezó a escribir cuentos en su etapa de «cortesano», cuando debía amenizar, como gentilhombre de la cámara del rey, los ocios de la corte, en los cuatro títulos que componen el presente volumen -Cándido, Micromegas, Zadig y El Ingenuo- ya están presentes los propósitos de toda su escritura: divulgar las nuevas ideas, combatir la ineptitud y la mentira religiosas, y luchar por la tolerancia.

Ecrasez l’infame! Für die Freiheit des Wortes! So lautet der Kampfruf Voltaires, einem der berühmtesten Väter der Aufklärung. Das Infame, Niederträchtige bedroht die Freiheit des Gedankens.

Cándido figura a la cabeza de todas las novelas y cuentos de Voltaire como la pieza indiscutible del arte narrativo del Siglo de las Luces. Es una novela de aprendizaje, y su héroe un optimista que ha asimilado las teorías del providencialismo leibniziano: cree a pies juntillas que el mundo es un paraíso, a pesar de que, desde la primera línea, la realidad se encarga de negarlo.

Candide, der Neffe eines Barons, muss fliehen, nachdem er bei einer Liebelei mit einer schönen Prinzessin ertappt wurde. Er erlebt auf seiner Flucht durch die Welt allerlei Abenteuer... Am Ende kommt er zu der Erkenntnis, dass dem Menschen letztlich nichts bleibt, als "seinen Garten zu bestellen".

Ist Optimismus gerechtfertigt? Nicht, wenn man Voltaire glauben darf. In seiner satirischen Novelle "Candide" malt der Autor ein pessimistisches Weltbild. Und was packt der Autor nicht alles in diese Geschichte! Ein unübertreffliches Beispiel reiner Erzählfreude!!!

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!

Plongez dans Candide ou l'Optimisme, le roman satirique le plus célèbre de Voltaire, où l’innocence se heurte à la cruauté du monde. Suivez Candide, un jeune homme bercé par l’optimisme de son maître Pangloss, dans une aventure effrénée à travers l’Europe, l’Amérique et l’Orient. Guerres, tremblements de terre, trahisons et rencontres improbables jalonnent son parcours, l’obligeant à remettre en question sa vision naïve du monde.

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.

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....
