Description and Table of Contents
Description
The three plays presented in this volume and their various adjoining texts, ranging from the lengthy 'Notes' on "Le Triumvirat" to prefaces, avertissements and avis, all testify to Voltaire's continuing preoccupation with the uses and abuses of political authority, for good (as in "Charlot") and evil (as in "Le Triumvirat" and its accompanying essays, as well as, more ambiguously, in "Les Scythes").
