About This Book

Alguien dijo que al siglo XVIII se lo podrĂ­a recordar como «el Siglo de Voltaire», algo que no resulta difĂ­cil de conceder porque Voltaire forma parte del escaso elenco de pensadores que modelĂł la visiĂłn de los peligros y amenazas que acechan actualmente a nuestra sociedad y que participĂł en todos los combates de su tiempo contra el fanatismo. Su naturaleza, temperamento y convicciĂłn hacĂ­an de Ă©l un insumiso incapaz de callarse ante una injusticia, una crueldad o un abuso de poder.Ese apabullante activismo le convierte en un ancestro de los intelectuales comprometidos pasados, presentes y futuros. Voltaire mismo, no ya sus obras, constituye un sĂ­mbolo contra la intolerancia, un estandarte que puede blandirse contra todo tipo de supersticiones y prejuicios, tan bien ridiculizados hasta el paroxismo por su prodigiosa ironĂ­a. Su mejor legado es el de habernos enseñado a reĂ­rnos, a esbozar una sardĂłnica sonrisa ante situaciones manifiestamente mejorables, a reivindicar ferozmente los agravios con la fuerza de una mirada satĂ­rica.Hoy mĂĄs que nunca sigue siendo necesario revisitar el pragmatismo y el sentido comĂșn de Voltaire, y volver a reivindicar que cualquiera puede tener las convicciones o los credos que prefiera, siempre que no pretenda imponerlos a los demĂĄs como un dogma indiscutible.
