Více o knize
The poem explores the theme of humanity's place within God's natural order, emphasizing that individuals must accept their circumstances as part of a divine plan. Pope argues that since humans cannot comprehend God's intentions, they should embrace the belief that "Whatever is, is right." This work significantly influenced optimistic philosophy across Europe and served as a counterpoint to later critiques, such as Voltaire's satire in Candide. Dedicated to Henry St John, it reflects Pope's efforts to rationalize the relationship between man and the divine.
