Chiamo grandi uomini tutti coloro che si sono distinti nell’utile o nel dilettevole. I saccheggiatori di provincia non sono altro che eroi." Francois Marie Arouet (1694-1778) Nasce a Parigi da famiglia borghese; studia presso un collegio di gesuiti, si dedica, per volere del padre, a studi giuridici e diviene magistrato. Precocissimo poeta, frequenta i circoli letterari ove si fa notare per la sua vivacissima intelligenza. Nel 1716 viene esiliato e successivamente incarcerato alla Bastiglia perchè aderisce a correnti intellettuali contrarie alla corona. Inizia in carcere la sua lunga carriera di scrittore, abbandona il proprio nome assumendo quello di Voltaire. Riappacificatosi con il reggente viene nominato diplomatico, inizia così un lungo periodo di viaggi fino a quando verrà nuovamente esiliato in Inghilterra dove diventerà grande ammiratore delle istituzioni politiche parlamentari.

    Extractions: This site is hosted by Netfirms Web Hosting The Mick Sinclair Archive Cabaret Voltaire November Sounds live review CABARET VOLTAIRE Sheffield University Being in the delectable main hall of Sheffield University is likestepping into the interior of some vast gas works. The place is all jutting pipes and strange angles of symmetry, the whole room being constructed in the shape of a something -agram (I lost count of the corners) with a kind of inverted trampoline thing pinned onto the roof. It's a design to match the nature of the city, of course, yet this overtly industrial piece of architecture oddly glows with a warmth and cosiness. A setting, on the face of it, a trifle too smug for the expected impact of tonight's entertainment. There are a selection of film shorts and videos (even Cabs-own clips) running for 90 minutes or so before the arrival of the group. A curious blurring action. It felt as if they'd already arrived before they actually had. Furthermore, there's an eerie switch from screen watching to people watching. Particularly as, in the case of the Cabs, you can only 'watch' fleeting details in a wider field of scattered vision.

Plusieurs personnes, qu'on appelle en France (Note 6) , dirent hautement qu'il valait mieux laisser rouer un vieux calviniste innocent que d'exposer huit conseillers de Languedoc à convenir qu'ils s'étaient trompés: on se servit même de cette expression: "Il y a plus de magistrats que de Calas"; et on inférait de là que la famille Calas devait t être immolée à l'honneur de la magistrature. On ne songeait pas que l'honneur des juges consiste, comme celui des autres hommes, à réparer leurs fautes. On ne croit pas en France que le pape, assisté de ses cardinaux, soit infaillible: on pourrait croire de même que huit juges de Toulouse ne le sont pas. Tout le reste des gens sensés et désintéressés disaient que l'arrêt de Toulouse sera t cassé dans toute l'Europe, quand même des considérations particulières empêcheraient qu'il fût cassé dans le conseil.

    http://www.liceodavincitv.it/didatt/700/voltaire_vita.htm
    
    Extractions: VOLTAIRE : VITA E OPERE Pseudonimo dello scrittore e filosofo francese Francois Marie Arouet (Parigi 1694~1718). Ultimo figlio di un ricco notaio del Chátelet, crebbe in un ambiente borghese colto, compìendo gli studi presso i gesuiti del collegio Louis-le-Grand, tra condiscepoli di nobile origine destinati alle più alte cariche e generosi di aiuto nei momenti difficili della sua movimentata esistenza. Essa si aprì all'insegna della mondanítà nella società elegante e libertina del salotto di Ninon de Lanelos, dove V. si fece notare per la finezza dell'ingegno. Rientrato a Parigi dopo un breve soggiorno in Olanda al seguito dell'ambasciatore di Cháteauneuf, suo padrino, compose poesie satiriche che gli crearono qualche guaio e lo costrinsero a un prudente esilio presso Fontainebleau, poi a Sully-sur-Loire. Il successo della rappresentazione della sua prima tragedia, (Edipe 1718), gli aprì l'accesso all'alta società e la pubblicazione del poema La Ligue (1723) gli procurò l'assegnazione di una pensione da parte del re. Ormai celebre, mutò il nome borghese nell'anagramma (tratto da Arouet le Jeune) di Voltaire; mentre l'eredità paterna e alcune felici speculazioni lo ponevano definitivamente al riparo da preoccupazioni economiche. Tale felice situazione precipitò nel 1726 per l'incidente occorsogli col cavaliere di Rohan, che lo fece imprigionare alla Bastiglia. Ne uscì di lì a poco per riparare in Inghilterra, dove rìmase circa tre anni. Un cambiamento profondo si operò nella sua vita e nella sua cultura, a contatto con una società di nobili, di poeti e dì filosofi (Congreve, Walpole, Swift, Pope, Berkeley) espressi da una società democratica al cui confronto quella arretrata e assolutista della Francia non poteva che ispirargli sentimenti severamente critici, suffragati da argomentazioni storico filosofiche, razionalistiche e "laiche", di nuova acquisizione.

75. Voltaire
    Brief biographical site on the writer.  
    http://wondersmith.com/scifi/voltaire.htm
    
    Extractions: Biographical notes by Blake Wilfong "I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it." Voltaire was the nom de plume of Francois Marie Arouet (1694-1778). One of the most famous French writers, his works embrace almost every branch of literaturepoetry, drama, romance, history, philosophy, and science. The years between his birth and death overlapped those of famous early scientists such as Sir Isaac Newton, Anton van Leeuwenhoek, Edmund Halley, Joseph Priestly, and Benjamin Franklin; Voltaire wrote SF at a time when the crucial scientific foundations for it had scarcely been laid. He was eminently qualified; one of his own projects was a translation of Newton's Principia into French. Alas, though some of Voltaire's works contain elements of the bizarre and the fantastic, few qualify as even borderline sci-fi. Yet "Micromegas" (1752) is such a shining exception that for this single tale Voltaire deserves credit for inventing the science fiction short story, and possibly science fiction itself. Voltaire's writings brought him fame and fortune, but, like those of his character Micromegas, also brought trouble. His advocacy of freedom of speech and religion, along with attacks on the Church and the French nobility, resulted in two prison terms in the Bastille and years of exile from France. Yet Voltaire's works eventually catalyzed the French Revolution, and secured his lasting memory as a hero of all the free world.
