The first philosopher that Candide encounters is named pangloss, and he is presented as a follower of optimism. Optimism is the belief that the world they live in is the best possible world. During their travels together Pangloss contracts a disease from a handmaiden and comments, “Oh, Pangloss cried candide, what a strange genealogy! Is not the Devil the original stock of it?

This is an example of Pangloss philosophy on optimism because he takes a negative event and adds on something positive which in turn gives it an optimistic view point. Pangloss believes deeply in his philosophy despite the fact that he has contracted a disease which worsens his health and prevents him from spawning children. He even goes on to say that des...
