Voltaire (eigentlicher Name: François Marie Arouet, 1694-1778) veröffentlichte 'Das Zeitalter Ludwigs XIV.' im Jahr 1751. Voltaire war einer der prominentesten Vertreter der französischen Aufklärung und wurde bereits zu Lebzeiten infolge seines kosmopolitischen Aftretens und intellektuellen Scharfsinns international bewundert, nicht zuletzt vom preußischen König Friedrich II. Das vorliegende Werk gehört zu den wichtigsten Texten der Geschichtsschreibung seiner Epoche. In einer Mischung aus Sittengemälde und politisch-militärischer Entwicklungsgeschichte erscheint das europäische 17. Jahrhundert vor unseren Augen als eine überaus farbige, wenn auch von militärischer Gewalt getränkte Erzählung des Fortschritts von Kultur und Zivilisation. Voltaire prägte damit den Europabegriff des 18. Jahrhunderts, indem er Politik vor allem als das Wirken und die Händel einzelner Personen, also als Ausdruck ihrer persönlichen Leidenschaften, Stärken und Schwächen darstellt. 'Das Volk' erscheint, wenn überhaupt, nur als Verfügungsmasse der Machtinteressen der herrschenden Eliten, auch wenn der gute Herrscher letztlich nur jener ist, der von 'seinem' Volk geliebt wird. Bei Erscheinen des Buches lag die Französische Revolution noch 38 Jahre weit in der Zukunft. Auch wenn Voltaire das Bild Ludwigs XIV. teilweise schönt, so ist seine Schilderung von dessen Gesamtpersönlichkeit bis hin zum späten politischen Fall doch bemerkenswert offen und bis ins Detail um Objektivität bemüht. Voltaires Liebe gilt denn auch im Kern nicht der einzelnen Person, auch nicht jener des Sonnenkönigs, sondern der kulturellen Leistungskraft seiner französischen und der anderen europäischen Nationen.

Snagged a deal
Size: 7, Color: Redwood/Gum 10
I waited and waited to get these boots! I knew I was chancing it, but they went on sale, and I snagged them! I am a size 7, and they fit nicely with socks. a little loose, barefooted, but what psycho wears boots without socks? They are comfortable and really well-made.

Cute, comfortable waterproof boots (a little snug to put on)
Size: 7, Color: Velvet Tan/Gum 2
These are really cute Chelsea-style boots and feel very comfortable once they’re on. The waterproof material is great for wet weather and the sole feels sturdy with good traction. They look stylish enough to wear casually but still feel practical for rainy days. The only downside is they can be a little difficult to put on at first because the opening is somewhat snug, but once they’re on they fit well and feel supportive. Overall they’re a great waterproof boot and I’ve enjoyed wearing them.

Surprisingly great for my wide feet and high instep!
Size: 10.5, Color: Velvet Tan/Gum 2
So thrilled I took a chance on these. Finding boots is impossible for me. I have wide feet, a super high instep, a bunion on one foot, and I wear a hard to find size (10.5). I ordered the 10.5 and 11 in these expecting I might need to size up for width (if I could even get them on). It was a struggle getting the 10.5s on the first time, and once I did they were somewhat uncomfortable on the top of my left foot. But I read that they would relax so decided to give it a go because I need waterproof boots for an upcoming trip and the 11s felt too long. After two days of light wear, they are already breaking in and I have no more discomfort. Getting them on is already easier and they are plenty wide enough and very comfortable to walk in. These are true to size. Super happy and worth a day of mild discomfort to break them in!

Comfortable, sturdy, waterproof
Size: 9.5, Color: Black/Black
Loce, love, love these boots. Have walked ten miles with no foot pain around NYC. They go with everything and and are so comfortable. As they are waterproof/resistant, they get a little warm in high temps, but perfect three-season boots.

Super cute, comfortable, practical, love that they are slip on
Size: 10.5, Color: Tobacco/Black
I have worn these 2-3 times already. The first day was a school/work day so I was on my feet 9 hours and the only issue I had was with the side of the boot rubbing against my ankle. I just make sure I wear socks high enough to cover my ankles or jeans that go into the boots now for long wear days. Absolutely love them! They keep my feet dry in this snow( we live in Michigan). I had been looking for a pair like this for awhile now and was getting super frustrated that I couldn't find my size in any that I liked. I saw that they had these available in a 10.5 and I wear 11. I looked at the Sorel website reviews (since the amazon ones weren't super helpful on sizing) and they said that the boots ran big so I took a chance on the 10.5 fitting me. They fit perfect. I have long narrow feet but I could see where they would be tight or uncomfortable on someone with wider feet. I've been trying to find a pair for my mom now since she has boot envy.
