A Voltaire 1694-1778 creator Leigh, Oliver Herbrand Gordon Morley, John 1838-1923 Smollett, T. (Tobias) 1721-1771 Fleming, William F. text utu 2011 monographic en 1 online resource : multiple file formats "A Philosophical Dictionary, Volume 02" by Voltaire is an encyclopedic dictionary published in 1764. This alphabetically arranged work challenges religious and social institutions through sharp, often provocative articles. Born from a dinner party game at Frederick II's court, Voltaire crafted a deliberately pocket-sized, affordable text to spread revolutionary ideas. The dictionary reflects his advocacy for tolerance, freedom of press, and deism while criticizing religious fanaticism. Though beloved by Enlightenment rulers and the public, religious authorities condemned it, burning copies across Europe while Voltaire remained calmly anonymous.
