"The secret of being boring is to say everything."Voltaire

i don't know what you mean by 'type'.

Enlightenment philosophers basically wanted their individual freedom and also, Charles Montesquieu believed that the true freedom required laws, which means the philosophers basically wanted a government.

By overthrowing the monarchs, and all of other things and such, government was created.

what type of government, hm .

A government who gives people a right to vote and such? who gives people freedom and who is isn't a monarch.

analyze human anatomy.

Because he is not of noble birth, and has no traceable family roots.

In addition to mere mockery in his writings Voltaire also used science to criticize organized religion. for instance in 1726 he made a joke at a French noble's expense. The noble, rather than condescend to confront Voltaire himself, paid some hired thugs to beat him up.

It's doubtful, he died in 1778

Probably not

He gave them courage to stand up against corrupt government.

Voltaire was born Francois-Marie Arouet in 1694. His nom de plume, Voltaire, is an anagram of the Latinized spelling of his name, AROVET LI, He was an enlightenment writer known for his great wit and relentless attacks on the Catholic church.

Voltaire spent 11 month in the Bastille from 1717 to 1718. He had to escape Paris and settled near Switzerland. He had insulted the King of France. On the other hand, he insulted everybody. The king had him out of his hair. He went to a place where could easily cross the border. Both Frederick, the king of Prussia, and Catherine the Great of Russia invited him to live in their palace but he refused.

Voltaire targeted and attacked corrupt officials and idle aristocrats. With his pen he battled inequality, injustice, and,superstion

an agglomeration is a group of collectively weak and desperate elements. the holy roman empire was a group of dutchies or masses of lands ruled by princes who didn't get much money from the king so didn't really have to listen to him. so it wasn;t really an empire. rarely would the king have control of rome or anywhere on Italy it wasnt until late in the empire that it straddled the alps. it was rather holy seeing that its kings tried in vein to united western Europe under Christianity but the fact that they would slaughter those who did not accept their religion or the king as their king, charlamagne is said to have killed 3500 people in one day for not conforming, these kind of actions are not so holy.

It was actually Hobbes, not Voltaire, who warned that in the absence of good government, life tends to be nasty, brutish, and short. However, it is true that Voltaire also commented on the nastiness of life, particularly in his novel Candide.

No, Voltaire is not a Satanist. His religious standing is fairly ambiguous, but he pointed out in his interview with Fox News that he himself doesn't personally know any Satanist goths. There's a good likelihood he was raised Catholic, but he seems to be secular now, and has stated that he's raised his son secular as well.

Voltaire uses the character of Dr. Pangloss to mock the philosophy of Gottfried Wilhem von Leibniz who basically believed that because God created everything in the world for the good of man, if evil is in the world, then God created it for the good of mankind, so all is for the best. The foolish and persistent belief of Pangloss' philosophy by Cunegonde and Candide tries to taunt and degrade the blind optimism of Leibniz.

Jews believe that there is only one Supreme being; G-d who created the universe and continues to will it into existence. All other beings are under his control, as he created them.

yes i believe he did i am not completely sure but i am 95.2% sure

the phrase "i have read, monsieur, your new book against the human race. I thank you for it. No one has ever used so much intellect to prove us beasts." of coarse he meant the exact opposite

Catherine the Great and Voltaire enjoyed a mutual admiration. In 1744, when she married Peter III, becoming Grand Duchess under Catherine I, she had three objectives: To please the Grand Duke, to please the Empress, and to please the nation. She neglected nothing to succeed in this. She desired the good of Russia and sought to procure for her subjects happiness, liberty and propriety. Through her literary appetite, it was she who first discovered the works of Voltaire, and thus they began corresponding in 1763. In 1766 the Empress financed Denis Diderot the French writer and compiler in his publication of the Encyclopedie, as his volumes had been banned in France. She paid him 16,000 livres on condition that his books remain in his home during his lifetime, appointed him librarian of his own library and paid him a salary of 1,000 livres a year, with fifty years in advance. Her purchase of Diderot's library provoked this adulatory letter from Voltaire: "Madame! It is now towards the northern star that all eyes must turn. Your Imperial Majesty has found a path towards glory unknown to all other sovereigns before her. No one has thought of lavishing their beneficent acts seven or eight hundred leagues away from their own states. You have truly become the benefactress of Europe; and you have acquired more subjects through the greatness of your soul than others could conquer by force of arms." Voltaire and Catherine the Great were great minds of the Eighteenth Century. Both valued honesty, candor, philosophy and intellect.

I gather it was because he wanted a catchy pen name (François-Marie Arouet isn't very memorable) and may also be because he wanted to leave his old life behind and start anew.

make science became the majority part of life in France, Germany, and England.

Interesting question.

Turns out Voltaire and Catherine the Great carried on a long correspondence for about 10 years. Voltaire respected Catherine and referred to her as an "enlightened despot".

Although he disapproved of her extravagant court, he admired her strong leadership and rule. He also called her the "Star of the North".

He thought so highly of Catherine, he evidently kept a portrait of her in his bedroom. Catherine corresponded with some of the greatest minds of the era and encouraged arts, philosophy and sciences.

Dali's painting style in "Invisible Bust of Voltaire" is categorized as surrealism, characterized by dreamlike and bizarre imagery, with elements that challenge conventional interpretations of reality. The painting showcases Dali's meticulous attention to detail and his ability to create an unsettling and mysterious atmosphere through his use of distorted forms and unnatural composition.
