Complete Works of Voltaire 61B - Theatre 1766-1767 (French, Hardcover, Critical edition)

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).Contents: Octave et le jeune Pompee, ou Le Triumvirat (Dennis Fletcher), Du gouvernement et de la divinite d'Auguste (Dennis Fletcher), Des conspirations contre les peuples, ou des proscriptions (Jacqueline Marchand), Les Scythes (Robert Niklaus and Thomas Wynn), Charlot, ou la comtesse de Givry (Thomas Wynn)."
