Voltaire's correspondence has been described as his 'greatest masterpiece' - but if it is, it is also his least studied. One of the most prodigious correspondences in Western literature, it poses significant interpretative challenges to the critic and reader alike. Considered individually, the letters present a series of complex, subtle, and playful literary performances; taken together, they constitute a formidable, and even forbidding, ensemble. How can modern readers even attempt to understand such an imposing work? This Element addresses this question through the use of digital reading methods and resources that enhance our understanding of this complex literary object and its relationship to Voltaire's more canonical literary output, and indeed to the Enlightenment world at large. Nicholas Cronk and Glenn Roe provide scholars and students with new pathways into this particular corpus, using tools and approaches that can then be applied to correspondences and life-writing texts in all languages and periods.

Cette étude envisage l'ouvre de Voltaire dans la diversité de ses formes et des genres que l'auteur a pratiqués. Elle étudie d'abord la mise en scène dialoguée par Voltaire des conflits discursifs sur la question de la vérité au XVIIIe siècle. Elle aborde ensuite la représentation ironique par l'écrivain de voix prétendant affirmer des formes autoritaires et dogmatiques de discours de vérité. En troisième lieu, elle se penche sur le travail de distinction formelle opéré par l'écrivain entre le récit de fiction et le récit historique. Enfin sont étudiés les éléments d'écriture qui trahissent chez Voltaire un besoin existentiel de vérité.
