The stories are prefaced with an introduction by Professor F. C. Green on why Voltaire chose to write short stories rather than long novels, and the philosophical themes the author employs most regularly in each work. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in Voltaire's shorter prose works or in pre-Revolution French literature more generally.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eIntroduction\u003cbr\u003e Le monde comme il va, vision de Babouc\u003cbr\u003e Zadig ou la destinée\u003cbr\u003e Memnon ou la sagesse humaine\u003cbr\u003e Micromégas, histoire philosophique\u003cbr\u003e Candide ou l'optimisme\u003cbr\u003e Histoire d'un bon bramin.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Literary studies: general [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Literary studies: general\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Literary%20studies:%20general%20%5BDSB%5D%22\"\u003eDSB\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46265820578072,"sku":"9781107641068","price":30.96,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/products\/9781107641068i.jpg?v=1696781064","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/voltaire-choix-de-contes-paperback-9781107641068","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
