"Micromegas" by Voltaire is a philosophical tale written in the mid-18th century. This satirical narrative explores themes of knowledge, perspective, and the nature of existence through the journey of an inhabitant from the star Sirius named Micromegas. The story delves into the absurdity of human conflicts and the limitations of human understanding when compared to the vastness of the universe. The plot follows Micromegas, a giant who travels to Saturn, where he meets a dwarf from that planet. Together, they decide to visit Earth, observing and discussing the differences in perspective, intelligence, and experience among various beings. Upon their arrival, they engage with Earth’s inhabitants, humorously discovering the ridiculousness of human conflicts and the conceit of philosophers. Through their journey, Voltaire critiques the arrogance of humanity in the face of the universe's vast complexities and the often absurd nature of societal norms, inviting readers to reflect on what it truly means to understand life and existence.
