Que signifie ce nom "Candide" : innocence de celui qui ne connaît pas le mal ou illusion du naïf qui n'a pas fait l'expérience du monde ? Voltaire joue en 1759, après le tremblement de terre de Lisbonne, sur ce double sens. Il nous fait partager les épreuves fictives d'un jeune homme simple, confronté aux leurres de l'optimisme, mais qui n'entend pas désespérer et qui en vient à une sagesse finale, mesurée et mystérieuse. Candide n'en a pas fini de nous inviter au gai savoir et à la réflexion.

About the Author:
1694 - 1778. Ses débuts dans les lettres (vers contre le Régent) sont aussi le commencement de ses démêlés avec le pouvoir (il sera embastillé). Après un exil de trois ans en Angleterre, dont il vant e l'esprit de liberté dans les Lettres philosophiques (1734), il ne cessera plus de chercher la sécurité, à Cirey, chez Mme Du Châtelet, auprès de Frédéric de Prusse (1750 - 1753), puis dans ses domaines des Délices (1755) et de Ferney (1759). Admirateur du XVIIe siècle, il cherche à égaler les écrivains classiques dans l'épopée (la Henriade, 1728) ou la tragédie (Zaïre, 1732). Mais il est surtout pour l'Europe un prince de l'esprit et des idées philosophiques, qu'il diffuse par ses poèmes (Poème sur le désastre de Lisbonne, 1756), ses contes (Zadig, Candide), ses essais historiques (le Siècle de Louis XIV, 1751), son Dictionnaire philosophique (1764) et ses campagnes en faveur des victimes d'erreurs judiciaires (Calas, Sirven, Lally-Tollendal). Idole d'une bourgeoisie libérale anticléricale, il reste un maître du récit vif et spirituel. (Académie française.) © Petit Larousse
