Germinal d’Émile Zola

Germinal is a novel by French author Émile Zola, first published in 1885. The story is set in the fictional town of Montsou, in the Nord-Pas-de-Calais region of northern France, during the late 19th century. The novel follows the lives of a group of workers in the coal mines of Montsou as they contend with the poor working conditions and the exploitation by the mine owners.

The novel was inspired by the real-life 1877–78 miners’ strike in the Borinage region of Belgium. Zola’s objective was to describe the working class and their living and working conditions at the time. The novel is widely considered to be one of the most important works of the Realist literary movement.

Candide de Voltaire

Candide, ou l’Optimisme is a French satire first published in 1759 by Voltaire, a philosopher of the Age of Enlightenment. The novella has been widely translated, with English versions titled Candide: or, All for the Best (1759); Candide: or, The Optimist (1762); and Candide: or, Optimism (1947). It begins with a young man, Candide, who is living a sheltered life in an isolated castle and being indoctrinated with Leibnizian optimism (or the belief that this is the best of all possible worlds) by his tutor, Pangloss. The work describes the abrupt cessation of this idyllic lifestyle, followed by Candide’s slow, painful disillusionment as he witnesses and experiences great hardships in the world.

As Candide travels the world, he encounters war, theft, murder, rape, torture, and disease. He also meets a cast of colorful characters, including the brash soldier Pococurante, the idealistic young woman Cunégonde, and the aged philosopher Martin. Throughout his journey, Candide remains steadfast in his optimism, despite all evidence to the contrary.

Voltaire’s satire is critical of several philosophies prevalent in his time, including Leibnizian optimism, the philosophy of Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz that suggests this is the best of all possible worlds. The novella also critiques other philosophical and religious doctrines of Voltaire’s day, including the ideas of Isaac Newton, René Descartes, and Friedrich Nietzsche.
