«Voltaire en Nueva York» is the book by José Ferrater Mora published by Alianza in 1985 in paperback, with 217 pages and in Spanish.
Voltaire, the philosopher of the Enlightenment, serves as a starting point for a reflection on the ideas and legacy of the French thinker. Ferrater Mora places him before contemporary society —embodied in New York— to establish a dialogue between past and present and examine the relevance of his thought in a world different from his own.
The book belongs to the Alianza Tres collection (no. 151) of Alianza Editorial, published in Madrid in 1985.
