Philosophical satirical novel “Candide” by Voltaire impressed me since it covered topics such as public perceptions and vices, culture and religion, feelings and actions. At the beginning of the story we introduced to Candide who had lived a happy life in the castle and thought that everything in the world is wonderful but he had forced to leave the castle. Candide aimlessly wandered the earth, but finding the lost lover has brought him to life. Peaceful philosopher under the influence of love suddenly turns into a defender of the lady of his heart: he kills a wealthy Jew, then the inquisitor. However, all the murders in the story purely have external nature. Hanged, burned, stabbed and raped characters invariably alive due to the miraculous circumstances and skill healers. Candide’s traveling in Europe, South America and the Middle East is the basis for the disclosure of the modern world. The writer shows the historical and cultural realities of his time and hovering in society legends (about the wonderful country of Eldorado). Incidentally, it is a mythical state of universal happiness and contentment in the novella becomes opposition to the actually existing world. During the events that happened on Candide’s way when he was searching Cunegonde in spite of ranting of Candide’s teacher, philosopher Pangloss, Candide realizes that not all for the best in this world. Candide initially takes the words of his teacher for the truth, but life teaches him back. Everyone who meets a young man tells the horrific stories of their lives. Misfortunes accompany characters, regardless of their social status. Throughout external events of the story Voltaire teaches Candide and his friends that true happiness of man is in his work, and not sputtered over the whole earth, but centered on the small area of your garden.
