Produktinformationen zu „Voltaire (ePub)“
This book is about four things: Voltaire, happiness, writing—and us.In this book, Paul Kent sets off in search of happiness, with Voltaire as his guide: en route, he discusses some massively awkward questions, including: What exactly is happiness? Can we achieve it? Can any one era or society be said to be 'happier' than another? What makes for a happy writer? Was Voltaire happy? And what can we learn from his own pursuit of happiness which he chronicled exhaustively?This book is no dry exercise in theory: all human life is here, illuminated by the bonnes pensées of the mighty Voltaire—the original self-help guru.
Autoren-Porträt von Paul Kent
Paul Kent is a Londoner by birth and inclination. His childhood was spent in Blackpool, where he was educated, before gaining a place at St. Catherine's College Oxford to read English, and later American literature. He did not quite complete his doctoral thesis, being lured away by the BBC a few weeks prior to submission. He stayed with the Corporation for 12 years, as Producer and Commissioning Editor with the World Service and Radio 4. As Programme Director of Oneword Radio, he steered the digital station to two Sony Gold awards, then gave it all up to travel the world. He currently earns his crust as a freelance writer, script editor and radio producer.
