Excerpt from Voltaire's Visit to England: 1726, 1729 Voltaire's visit to England was the most important incident in his life. He tells us so himself. Yet it is the one period of his extraordinary career which is passed over by his numberless biographers in almost complete silence. As Carlyle in his 'Frederick' puts it: 'Mere inanity and darkness visible reign, in all his Biographies, over this period of his life, which was, above all others, worth investigating: seek not to know it; no man has inquired into it, probably no competent man now ever will.' Carlyle's own account of Voltaire in England is full of mistakes. Later researches have done something to fill up this blank page in Voltaire's biography. Notable among these are Gustave Desnoiresterres' 'Voltaire et la Societe Francaise au XVIII Siecle;' and Mr. Churton Collins' very short Essay on Voltaire in England. As this little monograph is mainly biographical, quotation from Voltaire himself and from other writers is used more freely than would be in place in a critical work.

In this comprehensive study of Voltaire's intellectual development, he provides the first full treatment of the effect of the English experience on Voltaire, the diversity of activity at Cirey, and the relation of Voltaire’s thought to 17th- and 18th-century philosophy. By devoting considerable attention to the movements, the personal relationships, and the environments that influenced Voltaire, Professor Wade is able to illuminate the sources of Voltaire’s thought and show at the same time how he wove them into a unique synthesis. A final chapter in the book contains a general summation of the importance of Voltaireanism as a philosophy of life. Originally published in 1969. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press.

With its distinctive history of civil liberties and the delicate balance between social order and the free pursuit of self-interest, England has always fascinated its continental neighbours. Buruma examines the history of ideas of Englishness and what Europeans have admired (or loathed) in England across the centuries. Voltaire wondered why British laws could not be transplanted into France, or even to Serbia; Karl Marx thought the English were too stupid to start a revolution; Goethe worshipped Shakespeare; and the Kaiser was convinced that Britain was run by Jews. Combining the stories of European Anglophiles and Anglophobes with memories of his own Anglo-Dutch-German-Jewish family, this utterly original book illuminates the relationship between Britain and Europe, revealing how Englishness - and others' views of it - have shaped modern European history.
