EDITORS COMMENTS
Dr. Pangloss, played by Mr. Harley, in a historical production of Voltaire's "Candide" (1759). In this classic work of literature, Dr. Pangloss is a philosopher who teaches the optimistic view that this is the best of all possible worlds, despite the numerous hardships and suffering endured by the novel's protagonist, Candide. Mr. Harley's portrayal of Dr. Pangloss in this stage version brings to life the character's eccentricity and unwavering optimism, even in the face of the most dire circumstances. Published in 1759, "Candide" is a satirical novel that critiques the optimistic philosophy of Leibniz, which holds that the universe is the best of all possible worlds. Voltaire's work challenges this belief through the experiences of its protagonist, who encounters various hardships and tragedies throughout the novel. Dr. Pangloss, as his mentor, is a central figure in this critique, as he continues to espouse his optimistic views even as the world around him crumbles. Mr. Harley's performance in this production adds depth and nuance to the character of Dr. Pangloss, making him a memorable and intriguing figure. The historical setting of the production further enhances the audience's understanding of the context in which Voltaire wrote his work and the philosophical debates of the time. Overall, this image captures the essence of Dr. Pangloss and his optimistic worldview, making it a fascinating glimpse into the world of Voltaire's "Candide.
