About this product
Product Information
This book documents what newspapers, literary journals and private individuals in Holland wrote about Voltaire between 1746 and 1778. Like elsewhere in Europe, he was admired for his literary genius but detested by orthodox Christians for his disrespect of revealed religion. In this book these views are represented by Gerard Roos, the translator of Zadig, Socrate and L'Homme aux 40 ecus, and the reverend Petrus Hofstede. For Jean Rousset de Missy, the editor of Voltariana and Les Mensonges imprimes, Voltaire was also a selfish cheat who did t keep his promises to publishers. In L'Epilogueur moderne Rousset frequently attacked him in connection with Abrege de l'histoire universelle by Jean Neaulme. Among the documents discovered while working on this book are the letter Voltaire wrote to the grand pensionary of Holland after the public burning of his Dictionnaire philosophique, and a second review of Oeuvres de Maupertuis. The book concludes with a bibliography of Voltaire translations into Dutch, many of them published in literary journals.

Always happy with the Nile's service. Whilst dispatch can take longer than others, books are sourced at a great price from locations worldwide and from prior experience I know to order in advance. I ordered three expensive textbooks for uni, two weeks later they were dispatched and the next day received - all earlier than expected timeframe. Packaged very well, books intact. Great seller, updated tracking and items as described. A+++
