In the meantime, believing in the church is a duty of everyone in society, the authority of the church has never been questioned. Certainly it means immediate death. At the same time, Arouet studied at Jesuit College of Louis-Le-Grande. I am good at learning, especially writing skills. After he attended school, Arouet was noticed by most nobles for his writing he finally was jailed to write two unpleasant pieces, Puerto Regnanto and J'aivu.

Voltaire "Candide or Optimism" was written in Age of Enlightenment. The story of Voltaire is published in "Norton Western Literature Collection". The role of Voltaire Pangol is a philosopher who teaches the morality of God. Pangolss is also a mentor of Candide, Candide is the protagonist of the novel. Candide has a gentle heart, but in life it is hopeless. - The real meaning of "Eldorado" in Voltaire's Candide has been discussed for a while. The scene of El Dorado is Vorterre's visual philosophy on the idea of ​​an ideal society. It is a wealthy country with an equal position in status, rights, creeds, opportunities, without greed, rights and importance claims, religious conflicts and strife, and pain (Mason 55)

In Voltaire's story, Candide, his main character, Candido is embarking on a journey that he decides to find his true love, Kune Gonde, which is another form at the beginning of the story. Through his journey Voltaire always asked Candid to look for a person who is happier than him. In the story, Candide has a friend called Pangloss, a philosopher. At the beginning of this story, Pangloss pointed out that "it can not be influenced without it" and "things can not go beyond it". Voltaire cites these references through the story and promises that Candide will doubt it at any time, but the pure devotion to his friend Pangloss saying forwards is blinding. As Jonathan Swift did in Gulliver Travel IV, Voltaire used two opposite comparisons. Voltaire uses Candide's land Eldorado to compare with Westide.

Voltaire's frankness is a philosophical story about acceptance of a person's true happiness and his disappointment over life. From the beginning, Voltaire paid a certain amount of attention to the holding of money and the position of the class. Candide grew up on Westfalia Castle and was taught by a knowledgeable philosopher Dr. Pangloss. Voltaire believes that Dr. Pangloss is a bit crazy, but Candide is the best of Pangloss' s perspective, his causal philosophy, and all things. Frankly seems to be honest and rustic personality. When he found Baron's daughter Kune Gonde, he was suddenly exiled from the castle.
