"Candide, seconde partie" is an amusing, instructive and sometimes naughty imitation of Voltaire's masterpiece. A continuation of Candide's pilgrimage through a strange and cruel world, the story is a satire in the manner of Voltaire, and picks up many of the original tale's characters as well as its pet themes. To some extent, the book tells us a great deal about the spirit in which contemporary readers understood Voltaire's wit and satire. At the same time, it allows today's reader to take another look at Candide itself. It appeared bound with Voltaire's original in 1760. It went through many French editions in the 1760s and 1770s and was translated into English as soon as it appeared. Many thoughtful and cultured readers opined at the time that the work was by Voltaire himself. It has not been published in French since 1877 although it is widely available in an English-language translation. This text should interest specialists and could serve as a primary text in graduate level courses on 18th-century French literature and, more specifically, Voltaire himself, as well as courses dealing with the problem of authorship and imitation.

首先声明:这个版本本身是不推荐的,只是在网上随便下了个pdf,用着方便。中英文对照,英文应该是企鹅本,而翻译很随性。 老实人Candide(同义反复梗还挺冷的)出生在威斯特伐利亚美好的乡间城堡,大概是个城堡主人的妹妹的私生子,因此没什么地位。他与美丽表妹产生了一点点爱...
评分里斯本大地震后,卢梭认为,这是上帝对人类的惩罚,如果人们不住在城市而住在荒野,如果人们不住在楼房而席地而卧,如果……就不会造成这样的灾难了。伏尔泰闻后大惊,于是就写了《老实人》,用杜兰特的话说“悲观主义从未被如此痛快地论证过。”伏尔泰式讽刺的高明之处在于他...
评分9.2 讽刺类小说,我曾拜读过《好兵帅克历险记》和余华的《第七天》,我认为都没有这本《老实人》高明。伏尔泰在本书中讽刺了宗教 政治 战争 学者,也在书中描写了人性的贪婪 欲望 邪恶 自私。写这本书时,伏尔泰66岁,他结合了对世界对人生的认知。读这本书就如同在经历一个人...
Il faut cultiver notre jardin.恰到好处的幽默,以及作者巧妙借人物之口来传达自己的思想
评分« Mais il faut cultiver notre jardin. » 又一本宣扬“于虚无处坚守,向平凡中证成”的典范。
评分#Le travail éloigne de nous trois grands maux, l'ennui, le vice, et le besoin.
评分别的不说这种幽默方式太对我胃口了
评分勉强看下去,故事比较无聊。天真汉原以为世上都是真善美,经历过社会冷酷后,最后觉得劳动能帮助世人远离无聊,罪恶。。。
