![]() CandideFrancois VoltaireCliffsNotes on Candide begins in Westphalia, Germany, where Candide is tutored by noted philosopher Doctor Pangloss on the idea that "all is for the best . . . in this best of all worlds." Candide first accepts this philosophy, but as he experiences war, poverty, the maliciousness of man, and the hypocrisy of the church, he begins to doubt Pangloss. Voltaire never admitted to having written the highly controversial Candide; instead, the work is signed Mister Doctor Ralph. Search this CliffsNote
