N2  - "Memnon ou la sagesse humaine" by Voltaire is a philosophical tale published in 1749. The story follows Memnon, who resolves to live as a perfectly wise man by renouncing passion, staying sober, and cultivating friendships. His carefully laid plans quickly unravel through a series of misfortunes, leading to an encounter with a celestial spirit who offers unexpected counsel. This tale explores human folly and questions whether happiness can be achieved through reason alone, presenting a less optimistic view than Voltaire's earlier works.
