Dans les années 1760, Voltaire publie ses grandes oeuvres militantes, se construisant ainsi une image de patriarche des philosophes. Ce dictionnaire prend place dans cette représentation de soi et des Lumières à laquelle se livre Voltaire. Les différentes éditions de l'oeuvre imposent, par la virulence des articles et leur fond de critique religieuse et politique, cette figure patriarcale. Plus qu'un anti-dictionnaire ou qu'un pamphlet anti-religieux, l'abrégé de la raison qu'est le Dictionnaire philosophique portatif est avant tout le bréviaire d'une pensée alerte, incisive et sensible. Tout Voltaire, jusqu'à son émotivité la plus naïve, se retrouve dans cette oeuvre.

Virtue, as used here, connotes integrity--that living force that issues from persons, societies, or texts in consequence of their accomplishing their distinctive ends. Professor Berthoff outlines the descent of the intuition of virtue from classical times into our own era and examines it as a formative presence in a series of major literary works.Originally published in 1987.The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.
