2 Voltaire François-Marie d'Arouet 1694–1778 Paris, France
Writer and Philosopher Critic Social Activist Liberty the fourth of five children, to a well-to-do public official and his well bred aristocratic wife. He wrote essays, plays, novels, stories, political essays, poems Criticized other philosophers

3 Philosophies Free will exists
Religion is a necessary guarantor of social order Hedonistic morality Skepticism is good Empirical facts Optimism is ignoring the empirical facts in humans are not deterministic machines of matter and motion those equipped to understand their own reason could find the proper course of free action themselves. But since many were incapable of such self-knowledge and self-control- he did not exactly believe in god, but in the need for religion celebration of moral freedom through sexual liberty- morality grounded in the positive valuation of personal, and especially bodily, pleasure, and an ethics rooted in a hedonistic calculus of maximizing pleasure and minimizing pain (Paquette) hedonistic worldly living as a positive force for society- nothing wrong with seeking happiness and pleasure because it advances progress in life (Martin on no one is happy) Lack of Skepticism is when doubt meets imagination. no authority, no matter how sacred, should be immune from challenge by critical reason (Candide) He was terribly hostile towards clergy One can only rely on empirical fact to find truth when at the very end they are happy because they stopped questioning/ Martin makes Candide analyze the world and who is happy

4 John Locke August 29th 1632 – October 28th 1704
Physician and philosopher Wrote many treatises Empiricist Knowledge comes from senses Liberal Individuals have rights Limited governments must protect these rights Locke was born in 1632 in England He wrote many treatises on government and man He was an empiricist, which meant that he believed one’s understanding of the world came from sensory experiences He is regarded as the Father of Liberalism He wrote voluminous works on the subject Basic philosophy: Individuals have certain inalienable rights (free speech, liberty, equality, property) Governments must protect these rights and do no more Humans are often stripped of Locke’s rights in Candide Candide often loses what is rightfully his Land, wealth Candide is forced to fight for those he does not agree with Candide rarely has control over political occurrences

6 Thomas Hobbes April 5 1588 – December 4 1679 Solely a philosopher
Wrote Leviathan Walked between Liberalism and Monarchial Soveriegnty Hobbes was born in 1588 in England He wrote many works, but his greatest was Leviathan Established the idea of the social contract Humans are, by nature, violent They enter into a common contract to protect each other against harm We give up certain rights when we enter into societies He still believed in some liberal ideas Humans have rights, we just must give some of those up to live together Government should represent people to the best of its ability In Candide, many of the societies operate under Hobbes’ ideas Monarchs have absolute rule People often join together for protection, but give up freedoms Martin- travels with Candide, gives up freedom to do what he wants People are shown to be generally bad Auto-da-fe Robbers Soldiers

8 Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz
1646–1716 born in Leipzig, Germany 1672 Diplomat in Paris 15 Published Books Discourse on Metaphysics known as the last “universal genius”. He made deep and important contributions to the fields of metaphysics, epistemology, logic, philosophy of religion, as well as mathematics, physics, geology, jurisprudence, and history in 1672, when Leibniz was given the single most important opportunity of his life: the Elector of Mainz sent him on a diplomatic mission to Paris, the center of learning and science at the time. (4 yrs) then became librarian after his employer died Many unpublished works too

9 Four Principles The Principle of the Best
God always acts for the best Predicate-in-Notion Principle the notion of the predicate is in some way included in that of the subject. Principle of Contradiction “That which involves a contradiction [is] false, and that which is opposed or contradictory to the false [is] true.” Principle of Sufficient Reason “Nothing is without reason” “There is no effect without a cause” Panglos

10 Jean Jacques Rousseau 1712- 1778 Calvinist Geneva

11 Lettres Morales human beings are increasingly dependent on one another for the satisfaction of their needs human beings are good by nature but are rendered corrupt by society Philosophers are rationalizers of self-interest, as apologists of tyranny, and as playing a role in the alienation of humanity's natural impulse to compassion derive their very sense of self from the opinion of others Religious toleration and fallibility of inquisition Learning not by lecturing but by experience He focuses a lot on idea of passion as a human need Candide leaves Eldorado for the Cundegonde Candide murders Cundegonde’s brother because he being mean Panglos seems to have no heart just a brain and Martin does not feel bad for ppl at all Lisbon Inquisition of Jews (he did not believe that a state could have a process for determining the devotion of an individual) Candide accepts Panglos’s theories without questioning then and at the end realizes that they r wrong

12 Denis Diderot 1713-1784 Langres, France Encyclopedia Writer
Pensees philosophiques Lettre sur les aveugles Moved to Paris and was poor until ppl recognized his writing skills He is most famous for compiling and editing the encyclopedia

13 Philosophies All things must be examined, debated, investigated without exception and without regard for anyone’s feelings.

15 Philosophies The Principles The Meditations The Passions
Proves God’s existence Unsound evidence The Meditations Questions the possibility of knowledge The Passions Passions of the soul are mental activities that can move us to action Must be controlled Four parts based on each-other (no evidence makes Voltaire mad) Knowledge by observation and experience (Candide never seems to learn from his experience tho, too trusting, plus his learned master has taught him nothing of use) Candide kills the Brother

16 Sir Thomas More 1478-1535 London, England Lord Chancellor
Renaissance Humanist Utopia 1516 He was a lawyer, social philosopher, writer Served under HenryVIII Considered a saint by Catholic Church In Latin Describes the Travels of Raphael Hythlodeaus through the perfect island country

17 Utopia Perfectly orderly, reasonable social arrangements
Communal ownership of land Both men and women are educated Complete religious toleration Slavery Gold not liked, jewelry only for children Money only necessary for commodities Welfare No lawyers Contrasts European society No private property goods stored in warehouses Equally Except for atheists-because no God means no higher authority than man’s wishes Each household has two slaves with golden chains/ slaves released for good behavior Golden chamber pots- only used for shameful things so ppl do not want it And bribing foreign nations to fight each other Free hospitals and euthanasia, priests marry Law is simple enough for all to understand

18 John Stuart Mill May 20 1806 – May 8 1873 Philosopher and economist
Member of Parliament Wrote On Liberty Utilitarianism Anybody can do anything as long as no harm is caused Social Liberty Tyranny of Majority Born in 1806 in England Held many job titles, but he contributed most to society in philosophy and economy Wrote On Liberty Outlined his views of utilitarianism- that anybody can do whatever they please as long as it does not harm others Also believed in social liberty: rulers must rule to the interests of the people, and thus their powers must be limited Tyranny of Majority: the minority must be protected against the beliefs of the majority In Candide, Pangloss shares a similar theory If everything works for the best, then it is best Also, Candide seems to share this to some extent He operates on the belief that others are good, and keeping to oneself is the best possible route

20 Major Philosophies Liberalism Social Contracts
Voltaire walks between these two ideas Is it the “best of all possible worlds?” Happiness The two largest themes in Candide are those of Liberalism and Social Contracts Some characters believe all is good and the people should be left to their own devices Others believe that people are generally bad and it is better to be a part of a system than to be on one’s own Voltaire tends to make fun of the idealism of Liberals while showing the debilitating effects of a completely negative outlook on life Candide seems to say that this is not “the best of all possible worlds” but it’s the best one we’ve got, and we must make due with what we have
