1. The other traditional attitudes and beliefs that Voltaire satirized in his book, <em>Candide</em>, are optimism, religion, avarice, power, politics, among others.

2. I think that Voltaire was very much on target for all time, not only for the eighteenth century.  This is because all the great evils that he isolated and wrote against are still present in our society today.

  • Boredom is still felt by human beings till date amidst massive industrialization and mass productive activities.  People are still bored with our activities on earth because we do not understand our purpose for being.  According to St. Augustine, we cannot find rest until we rest in our Creator God.

  • Vice and poverty have not been eradicated with all the technological advances of the modern world.  Rejection of religion will not solve our human problems.  It is the rejection of all evils and the acceptance of good that will savage our abject human condition.

Thus, Voltaire will further single out these evils in today's society.  He will even single out more, like the Holocaust, the World Wars, the buildup of atomic and nuclear bombs.

disa [49]

The phenomenon where many elderly people lose knowledge and forget memories that are not commonly recalled is a transience phenomenon.

<h3>What is a transience phenomenon in psychology?</h3>

Transience is the gradual deterioration of memory retrieval and access.

Transience, one of the "7 sins of memory," develops naturally with aging but can also develop severely as a result of brain damage. Both short-term and long-term memory are affected.

The flaws in memory are both fascinating and significant. They can be broken down into seven basic offenses, or "sins,"

Transience is the gradual deterioration of memory access. Aging is a natural process of transience, yet certain factors can hasten it. Transience may result from traumatic brain injury or hippocampal damage.

Transience may also be brought on by some diseases, such as Alzheimer's or dementia. Furthermore, both brief and long-term loneliness in older persons were strongly associated with diminished cognitive function.

Therefore, "transience" is the correct answer.
