Major Assignment due 12/29

Candide Paper Assignment
Due 12/29 in class

In a 3-page paper, explore the following question:

What do the characters’ experiences in Candide imply about Voltaire’s philosophical opinions of human nature, the roles of women in society, war, European colonization of the Americas, and/or slavery. 

Feel free to address any or all of those topics mentioned above.  Realize, however, that no matter how many you choose to cover, you must still write at minimum 3 pages and no more than 4.
