Descripción editorial
"Candide," a renowned work by Voltaire, emerged in 1759 as a biting satire that continues to stand as his most celebrated contribution to literature. It follows the journey of a gentle protagonist who, despite enduring numerous trials, clings to the belief in the optimism of his world. Beneath its veneer of humour lies a scathing critique of philosophical optimism, challenging the notion that all human suffering is part of a benevolent cosmic plan. Voltaire's narrative takes Candide on a globe-trotting adventure, revealing that reality often contradicts the teachings of his esteemed tutor Dr. Pangloss.
With its wit and graceful storytelling, "Candide" has earned its place as an immortal classic. Widely translated, it remains a cornerstone of literary discourse.
Moreover, this parallel text edition boasts a bilingual English-Greek format, providing an excellent opportunity for readers to enhance their language skills.
