CLASSIC BOOKS ON PHILOSOPHY - An Essay on Man, Moral Essays and Satires - NEW EDITION, By Alexander Pope. An Essay on Man is a poem published by Alexander Pope in 1734. It is a rationalistic effort to use philosophy in order to "vindicate the ways of God to man" (l.16), a variation of John Milton's claim in the opening lines of Paradise Lost, that he will "justify the ways of God to men" (1.26). It is concerned with the natural order God has decreed for man. Because man cannot know God's purposes, he cannot complain about his position in the Great Chain of Being (ll.33-34) and must accept that "Whatever IS, is RIGHT" (l.292), a theme that was satirized by Voltaire in Candide (1759). More than any other work, it popularized optimistic philosophy throughout England and the rest of Europe. Pope's Essay on Man and Moral Epistles were designed to be the parts of a system of ethics which he wanted to express in poetry. Moral Epistles have been known under various other names including Ethic Epistles and Moral Essays. On its publication, An Essay on Man met with great admiration throughout Europe. Voltaire called it "the most beautiful, the most useful, the most sublime didactic poem ever written in any language".[citation needed] In 1756 Rousseau wrote to Voltaire admiring the poem and saying that it "softens my ills and brings me patience". Kant was fond of the poem and would recite long passages of the poem to his students. Later however, Voltaire renounced his admiration for Pope and Leibniz's optimism and even wrote a novel, Candide, as a satire on Pope and Leibniz's philosophy of ethics. Rousseau also critiqued the work. He questioned "Pope's uncritical assumption that there must be an unbroken chain of being all the way from inanimate matter up to God.

The subtitle of the first epistle is "Of the Nature and State of Man, with Respect to the Universe," and this section deals with man's place in the cosmos. Pope argues that to justify God's ways to man must necessarily be to justify His ways in relation to all other things. God rules over the whole universe and has no special favorites, not man nor any other creature. By nature, the universe is an order of "strong connexions, nice dependencies, / Gradations just" (30-1). This order is, more specifically, a hierarchy of the "Vast chain of being" in which all of God's creations have a place (237). Man's place in the chain is below the angels but above birds and beasts. Any deviation from this order would result in cosmic destruction. Because the universe is so highly ordered, chance, as man understands it, does not exist. Chance is rather "direction, which thou canst not see" (290). Those things that man sees as disparate or unrelated are all "but parts of one stupendous whole, / Whose body nature is, and God the soul" (267-8). Thus every element of the universe has complete perfection according to God's purpose. Pope concludes the first epistle with the statement "Whatever is, is right," meaning that all is for the best and that everything happens according to God's plan, even though man may not be able to comprehend it (294).
