- W14326145 abstract "Hi is not uncommon to note ideological similarities in the various writings of the great writers of any particular age. However, meditation on the general resemblances among the major works of the leaders of French Enlightenment thought continues to suggest heretofore unstudied textual alignments. One such comparison is that of the Troglodyte episode in Montesquieu's Lettres persanes (1721) and the Quaker letters in Voltaire's Lettres philosophiques (1734). While the relationship of Montesquieu and Voltaire has already garnered scholarly attention in broad, general studies, little focus has been concentrated on underlying commonalities of these specific texts.1 Undeniably, Montesquieu and Voltaire were subject to many of the same influences, especially with respect to previous writings dealing with foreign travel.2 It is, therefore, logical that the results of the effort generated by many of the same sources should contain aspects that are comparable if not complementary. It is the intention of the following study to show that, even in two works as different from one another in flavor as the Lettres persanes of Montesquieu and the Lettres philosophiques of Voltaire, there exists beneath the surface a generic, structural, moral and philosophical skeleton whose similar framework is suggested by a close reading and is supported by historical and biographical fact. We as scholars should lend to recognition of the influence of Montesquieu's Lettres persanes on Voltaire's Lettres philosophiques no less importance than did" @default.
