Visualizing perfection in Candide"Everything is for the best... in the best of all possible worlds." Imagining grandeur, perfection and brilliance all intertwined in a splendid world – a utopia, involves visualizing absolute beauty, harmony and universal tolerance among humanity. Wouldn’t such “perfection” designate the “best of all possible worlds”? How could we conceive of the sinister world described in Candide being presented as a “utopia”? Since the best of all possible worlds indicates that "all is for the best", is it not safe to conclude that since our world is clearly not "perfect", this therefore implies that "all" is not not for the best? Who distinguishes “good” from “evil”, “beautiful” from “hideous”, “strong” from weak? How do you know if they are right? How to know if they have chosen "correctly" "How can we allow ourselves to be so captivated by an idea as to blindly follow it (correctly or incorrectly) and believe in it? When do we question ourselves? Doubt and " double"? Such correlated topics of an ambiguous solution are sought to be explained in Candide. Voltaire's masterpiece, Candide, chronicles the journey of a young man as he ventures into the world and makes faces reality, manages it, is guided, transformed and ultimately defined by it Voltaire's story tells the story of Candide as a character matures from the naivety of a child to the expansive temperament of a distinguished man. .Born and raised in the castle of Baron Thunder-ten-tronckh, in the land of Westphalia, Germany, Candide is the first...... middle of paper... in the best of all possible worlds in short,; if you hadn't been kicked out of a beautiful castle by the ass for Miss Cunégonde's sake, if you hadn't been put in the Inquisition, hadn't you If you had traveled across America on foot, if you had not pierced the body of the baron, and if you had not lost all your sheep that you brought from the good country of El Dorado, you would not be here to eat lemons and pistachios candied. Voltaire therefore presents the two sides of the spectrum, Pangloss, the immutable, and Candide the “developed”. These adventures have broadened Candide's horizons, and with it, the reader is also faced with many thought-provoking dilemmas, cultivating themselves in the same way. This tale doesn't dash any hope of "perfection," but it does present, in simple terms, the ideas behind Murphy's Law..
