	Micromegas
		Micromegas drew a magnifying glass from his bundle of instruments, examined the creature patiently, and found no evidence that it had a soul lodged in its body.
		Micromegas, a much better observer, perceived clearly that the atoms were speaking to each other, and corrected his companion; but the dwarf, ashamed of having erred on this delicate subject, refused to believe that such creatures could have any means of communicating ideas.
		Micromegas, addressing his question to another sage, whom the Saturnian held on his thumb, asked him what the soul was, and what it did.

		Era su nombre Micromegas, nombre que cae perfectamente a todo grande, y tenia ocho leguas de alto; quiero decir veinte y quatro mil pasos geometricos de cinco pies de rey.
		Despues de muchos viages llego un dia Micromegas al globo de Saturno; y si bien estaba acostumbrado a ver cosas nuevas, todavia le paro confuso la pequenez de aquel planeta y de sus moradores, y no pudo menos de soltar aquella sonrisa de superioridad que los mas cuerdos no pueden contener a veces.
		Micromegas le dio a entender con mucha urbanidad, que no era fundada la consequeencia; porque, le dixo, con vuestros ojos tan chicos no veis ciertas estrellas de quinquagesima magnitud, que distingo yo con mucha claridad.

		Micromegas politely made him sense that this was rather bad reasoning.
		Micromegas was much puzzled over this; he examined the animal most patiently, and the result of the examination was that it was impossible to believe there was a soul lodged there.
		Micromegas, a much better observer than his dwarf, saw clearly that the atoms were speaking to each other, and pointed it out to his companion, who, ashamed at having been mistaken on the subject of generation, would not believe that such species could communicate ideas.

	Micromegas - Voltaire - Ciudad Seva (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Después de largo viaje, Micromegas llegó un día a Saturno, y aun cuando estaba acostumbrado a contemplar cosas nuevas, le sorprendió la pequeñez de aquel planeta y de sus moradores.
		Mejor observador Micromegas que el enano, advirtió claramente que aquellos átomos se hablaban y así se lo hizo notar a su compañero, el cual, con la vergüenza de haberse engañado acerca del mecanismo de la generación, no quiso creer que semejante especie de bichos pudieran tener y comunicarse sus ideas.
		Dirigiéndose entonces el señor Micromegas a otro sabio que encima de su dedo pulgar se posaba, le preguntó qué creía que era su alma y de qué se ocupaba él.

		Micromegas le dió á entender con mucha urbanidad, que no era fundada la conseqüencia; porque, le dixo, con vuestros ojos tan chicos no veis ciertas estrellas de quinquagésima magnitud, que distingo yo con mucha claridad.
		Tendió Micromegas con mucho tiento la mano al sitio donde se vía el objeto, y alargando y encogiendo los dedos de miedo de equivocarse, y abriéndolos luego y cerrándolos, agarró con mucha maña el navío donde iban estos señores, y se le puso sobre la uña, sin apretarle mucho, por no estruxarle.
		Díxoles finalmente Micromegas: Una vez que tan puntualmente sabeis lo que hay fuera de vosotros, sin duda que mejor todavía sabréis lo que hay dentro: decidme pues qué cosa es vuestra alma, y cómo se forman vuestras ideas.

	Micromegas L'Ingenus by Voltaire, 2040281681, Lowest Book Price Finder
		Micromegas is a visitor from Sirius who is four and twenty thousand paces in length from head to foot.
		"Micromegas," in which the stranger from Sirius pays a visitor on the beings of Saturn, is one of the earliest examples of what we would now call science fiction (or speculative fiction to use Harlan Ellison's preferred choice), along with Swift and Cyrano de Bergerac's "Other Worlds" from a century earlier.
		Given the strong identification of this genre with imagining the future, the end of Voltaire's novel offers some interesting symbolism: Micromegas leaves behind a book in which he will write down the purpose of existence, but the pages of the book are blank.

	Dissertations, Essays on A Comparison between Voltaire's Micromegas and Mary Shelley's Frankenstein
		Science Fiction, succinctly defined, is a literary genre generally characterized in form as a world of exaggerated drama which argues a social commentary using current scientific knowledge as its evidence.
		From the emergence in the 18th century of modern Science Fiction to the 'birth of the book' in the 19th century, each period is distinct, yet at times similar, in their respective techniques of elucidation.
		Voltaire’s Micromegas deals with a combination of satire and alienation while Shelley’s Frankenstein is a parody of creation and the ‘Oedipus Complex’.

	LiberOnWeb - Micromegas - L'ingenuo
		Candido, Micromegas, Zadig, L'Ingenuo, ecco i titoli più noti di operette brevi che, in un certo modo - se così si può dire - "salvano" lo scrittore, ce lo rendono vicino e quasi familiare.
		Del resto per uno solo di essi, per Micromegas, Voltaire fa uso del sottotitolo di Storia fìlosoflca.
		Bisogna anche aggiungere che l'idea di dedicarsi in modo impegnato e serio a una simile scrittura era trattata come inammissibile da Voltaire, fedele e strenuo difensore di una ferrea gerarchia dei generi letterali, alla cui sommità stavano il teatro e l'epopea.

		La propia página expresa las ideas que la animan: Micromegas es una revista electrónica inspirada por la irrupción de nuevas realidades en los esquemas tradicionales de la modernidad, y, sobre todo, por las respuestas culturales que provocan.
		Micromegas, por tanto, pretende ser una ventana abierta a las novedades que desde los diferentes campos de la creación humana van irrumpiendo sin cesar, confirmando que la evolución no sólo es necesaria sino inevitable.
		Desde los avances y anomalías científicas hasta el arte de vanguardia, pasando por el pensamiento más arriesgado o la vivencia nunca vista, Micromegas dará cabida a todo aquello que difícilmente se está quieto cuando se fotografía la cultura contemporánea.
