VOLTAIRE, FRANCOIS (1694-1778) Han var författare och ledamot av Franska Akademien 1746. Han var son till en ämbetsman och kom tidigt in i libertinska kretsar i Paris. Hans Satiriska epigram mot de politiska makthavarna gjorde att han blev satt i fängelse 1717 och 1725-26 samt en förvisning till England 1726-29. Studiet av engelska tänkarna, bl a Locke, Newton, Clarke och deisterna gjorde ett djupt intryck på honom. Han återvände till sitt land full av iver att predika den nya världsåskådningen. 1734-49 bodde han hos vänen markisinnan du Chatelet, där var han som mest produktiv. 1750 antog han en inbjudan från Fredrik den store och stannade vid dennes hov i Berlin till 1753. 1758 köpte han godset Ferney. Han var den franska upplysningens främste representant. Han slog igenom med tragedier som förenar klassisistisk form och tidens idéer. I en rad dikter och populärfilosofiska arbeten framlade Voltaire sin filosofiska ståndpunkt. Han anser att handlingsfriheten är mycket viktig. Han utgick ifrån klara enskilda tankegångar men när dessa skulle sammanflätas blev resultatet ofta dunkelt. Intrycken från Englandsvistelsen redovisas i Filosofiska brev 1734, där han kriticerar politik och religion. I romanen

Startsida Manifest Artiklar Recensioner ... Pro Sensu Communi Voltaire Francois Marie Arouet de Voltaire (1694-1778) var en av de mest inflytelserika upplysningsfilosoferna, inte bara i sitt hemland Frankrike, utan även internationellt. Hans kvickhet, skärpa och ironi gisslade samtidens etablerade synsätt och fördomar. Voltaire var som många upplysningsfilosofer deist, vilket innebär att Gud ses som världens skapare, men ej ingriper i världsförloppet. Den etablerade religionen, med dess inskränkthet och fanatism, var dock ett naturligt attackmål. Voltaires berömda ord "écrasez l´infâme" ("krossa den skändliga", d.v.s. den franska kyrkan), blev ett lösenord för upplysningens kamp mot kyrkan. Mer om Voltaire: http://www.voltaire.ox.ac.uk/ Citat av Voltaire: "Dygd förutsätter frihet, liksom att bära en börda förutsätter aktiv styrka.(...)Mitt tänkande är inte underordnat någon auktoritet mer än vad sjukdom och hälsa är." "Den vidskeplige är för skurken vad slaven är för tyrannen. Han är mer än så. Den vidskeplige regeras av fanatikern - och blir själv en sådan. Vidskepelsen föddes i hedendomen, upptogs av judendomen och infekterade den kristna kyrkan redan i äldsta tid." "Gå in i Londons börshus - en mer respektabel plats än många domstolar - och du kommer att se representanter från alla nationer samlade i mänsklighetens tjänst. Där handlar juden, muhammedanen, och den kristne med varandra som om de tillhörde samma religion, och ger namnet otrogen enbart till den som blir bankrutt. Där litar presbyterianen på anabaptisten, och anglikanen accepterar kväkarens löfte. När de lämnar dessa fredliga och fria sammankomster, går några till synagogan, andra går för att ta en drink...andra går till sin kyrka för att inspireras av Gud."

Back to Modern History Sourcebook Back toHistory of Science Sourcebook Voltaire Letters on the English or Lettres Philosophiques, c. 1778 Introduction Francois-Marie Arouet, known by his assumed name of Voltaire, was born at Paris, November 21, 1694. His father was a well-to-do notary, and Francois was educated under the Jesuits in the College Louis-le-Grand. He began writing verse early, and was noted for his freedom of speech, a tendency which led to his being twice exiled from Paris and twice imprisoned in the Bastile. In 1726 he took refuge in England, and the two years spent there had great influence upon his later development. Some years after his return he became historiographer of France, and gentleman of the king's bedchamber; from 1750 to 1753 he lived at the court of Frederick the Great, with whom he ultimately quarreled; and he spent the last period of his life, from 1758 to 1778, on his estate of Ferney, near Geneva, where he produced much of his best work. He died at Paris, May 30, 1778.

VOLTAIRE (1694-1778) ARTICLE "TORTURE", DICTIONNAIRE PHILOSOPHIQUE (1764) (Extrait) Les Romains n'infligèrent jamais la torture qu' aux esclaves, mais les esclaves n'étaient pas comptés pour des hommes. Il n'y a pas d'apparence (1) non plus qu'un conseiller de la Tournelle (2) regarde comme un de ses semblables un homme qu'on lui amène hâve, pâle, défait, les yeux mornes, la barbe longue et sale, couvert de la vermine dont il a été rongé dans un cachot. Il se donne le plaisir de l'appliquer à la grande et à la petite torture, en présence d'un chirurgien qui lui tâte le pouls, jusqu'à ce qu'il soit en danger de mort, après quoi on recommence ; et comme dit très bien la comédie des Plaideurs : "Cela fait toujours passer une heure ou deux". Le grave magistrat qui a acheté pour quelque argent (3) le droit de faire ces expériences sur son prochain va conter à dîner à sa femme ce qui s'est passé le matin. La première fois, madame en a été révoltée ; à la seconde, elle y a pris goût, parce qu'après tout les femmes sont curieuses ; ensuite, la première chose qu'elle lui dit lorsqu'il rentre en robe chez lui : « Mon petit coeur, n' avez-vous fait donner aujourd'hui la question à personne ? » Les Français, qui passent, je ne sais pourquoi, pour un peuple fort humain, s'étonnent que les Anglais, qui ont eu l'inhumanité de nous prendre tout le Canada, aient renoncé au plaisir de donner la question.
