Letters on England (Penguin Classics)

$5.33

This collection of letters offers a primary source for studying 18th-century philosophy, politics, and British culture through the eyes of Voltaire.

Also known as the Lettres anglaises ou philosophiques, Voltaire’s response to his exile in England offered the French public of 1734 a panoramic view of British culture. Perceiving them as a veiled attack against the ancien regime, however, the French government ordered the letters burned and Voltaire persecuted.
