MIRANDA, Luiz Francisco Albuquerque. Voltaire e o século de Luís XIV: a vitória das luzes. Educação e Filosofia [online]. 2010, vol.24, n.48, pp.457-479. ISSN 1982-596X.
This article is a study of the historical significance that Voltaire attributed to the kingdom of Louis XIV. This theme offers us an opportunity to analyze the links between enlightened thinking and the conception of civilized life elaborated by the European court societies of the XVII and XVIII centuries. It also provides a refection about the social project of the French Enlightenment. In Voltaire's case, this project involves the idea of historical progress, a problem dealt with in this article.
