Notes

Rasori translated part of the entry for "Reason" from Voltaire's Dictionnaire. It was published in the issue n. 12 (13 messidor year 4, 1 July 1796), pp. 93-94.

The Italian title reads "The dangers of being right, or telling the truth under the reign of Despotism". "Aver ragione" (being right) translates literally as having, or being on the side of "reason".
