In The Philosophy of History, Voltaire present a radical reinterpretation of the moral, aesthetic, and religious views and the customs and practices that prevailed in ancient civilizations. His critique touches on a range of topics, from cultures across the globe to legislators who spoke in the name of the gods. This enthralling essay is an essential read for scholars and students of the Enlightenment.
This ebook is derived from the original edition published in 1776, with a preface by Thomas Kiernan.
