Voltaire, French philosopher
Bildnummer 12553444
| Francois-Marie Arouet (1694-1778), French Enlightenment writer and philosopher known by the pen name Voltaire. He was born in Paris, youngest of five children of a lawyer. He went to school in 1704, where he was taught Latin, rhetoric and theology. Passionate about writing, he attended law school but continued creating satirical verse. He was twice sentenced to prison, including eleven months in the Bastille, and spent more than two years in exile in England. His works are famous for his wit, his attacks on Christianity (especially Catholicism) and his advocacy of personal freedoms in religion and speech. He used satire to criticise intolerance and religious dogma. His most famous works include 'Candide' (1759). He was banned from paris in 1754, so spent his last years at an estate near Ferney on the Swiss border. He died there in 1778, his body buried at an abbey in Champagne, but in 1791 his body was enshrined at the Pantheon in Paris. | |
