Voltaire 101 (lemmy.world)
submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]
 

I recently got interested about the Age of Enlightenment, and more specifically Voltaire - and would like to read some of his works to understand him better.

Can anyone suggest any "Essential Voltaire" that I can start with ? I know Voltaire is most known for his "Candide", but I want to take it slow.
