1. What are the three biggest targets of Voltaire's satire in these pages? Discuss, and give evidence by quoting exact passages.

p.12: "I don't have a soul, my friend, and nowhere in this wide world can one get oneself bled or obtain so much as an enema without paying for it, or without someone else paying." criticize the value of money.

p.13: "He was caught in mid-air by a piece of broken mast and left dangling. The good Jacques runs to his assistance, hauls him back on the board, and in doing so is himself pitched into the sea in full view of of the sailor, who leaves him to drown without even a backward glance" --> Criticizing that Christian values are useless, since the Anabaptist threw away his life for nothing.

p.20~21: treat women as object, property

2. Does Swift, in //Gulliver's Travels,// attack any of the targets you identified in question 1? Find passages from Swift's book as evidence. Then write a paragraph for each one, and discuss the similarities and/or differences.

I think Gulliver's Travel's little different from Candide because Candide talks about more like property and money while Gulliver talks more about government and political things.

I do not think //Gulliver's Travels// attack any of those. It is either Gulliver did not cover it or agreed to.

3. Write from each of the starred roles in our literature circles, and discuss your section from each point of view.
