About this audiobook

Ai, ai , prepare-se para boas risadas e cutucões. Nestes contos divertidos, porém profundos, Voltaire nos apresenta o pensamento iluminista de uma forma crua. Divirta-se! Com críticas à Sorbonne e aos inatistas (filósofos que acreditam que temos idéias inatas), Voltaire nos conduz a uma hilária Aventura da Memória.

Em CARTA de um TURCO - SOBRE os FAQUIRES e o seu AMIGO BABABEC, Voltaire mostra a razão se sobrepondo ao radicalismo religioso; já no PEQUENA DIGRESSÃO, ele brinca com os filósofos que acham que sabem mais do que seus sentidos podem lhes mostrar, quando faz uma metáfora com um hospital de cegos.

O CARREGADOR ZAROLHO, apesar de toda a ironia do conto, tenta mostrar como são felizes aqueles que enxergam, apesar de todos os males, as coisas boas da vida. Nestes e nos outros contos deste audiolivro, podemos ver a genialidade deste escritor-filósofo que foi um dos principais expoentes de seu século.

Voltaire

Imprisoned in the Bastille at the age of twenty-three for a criminal libel against the Regent of France, François-Marie Arouet was freed in 1718 with a new name, Voltaire, and the completed manuscript of his first play, Oedipe, which became a huge hit on the Paris stage in the same year. For the rest of his long and dangerously eventful life, this cadaverous genius shone with uninterrupted brilliance as one of the most famous men in the world. Revered, and occasionally reviled, in the royal courts of Europe, his literary outpourings and fearless campaigning against the medieval injustices of church and state in the midst of the ‘Enlightenment’ did much to trigger the French Revolution and to formulate the present notions of democracy. But above all, Voltaire was an observer of the human condition, and his masterpiece Candide stands out as an astonishing testament to his unequalled insight into the way we were and probably always will be.
