Complete Romances of Voltaire

Eight volumes in One. As a poet, historian and philosopher, Voltaire has few superiors, but as a satirical romanticist, he has not even an equal. The reading of these romances will lead the mind to seek for philosophy and the greatest and most compact of Voltaire's philosophical works The Philosophy of History and The Ignorant Philosopher, have been subjoined to the romances. This edition closes with the dialogues and criticisms to satisfy the lover of Voltaire, a final chuckle, as it were, to the laughter of Francis Marie Arouet, satirist of life, devotee of thought and raconteur of royalty.
