       optimism -- Eternal truths, the choice of the best, and 
       the almighty reality of sin : Budde and Knoerr's Doctrinae
       orthodoxae de origine mali (1712) -- A Jesuit attacks : 
       Louis-Bertrand Castel's review of the Theodicy in the 
       Journal de Trévoux (1737) -- Banning the best world, God's
       (supposed) freedom, and the principle of sufficient reason
       : Christian August Crusius's criticism of optimism (1745) 
       -- The prize-contest on optimism of the Prussian Academy

520    "The reign of philosophical optimism, or the doctrine of 
       the 'best of all possible worlds', in modern European 
       philosophy began in 1710 with the publication of Leibniz's
       Theodicy, about God's goodness and wisdom, divine and 
       human freedom, and the meaning of evil. It ended on 
       November 1, 1755 with the Lisbon Earthquake, which was 
       followed by numerous attacks against optimism, starting 
       with Voltaire's Poéme sur le désastre de Lisbonne and 
       Candide. But the years between both events were intense. 
       In this book, Hernán D. Caro offers the first 
       comprehensive survey of the criticisms of optimism before 
       the infamous earthquake, a time when the foundations of 
       what has been called the 'debacle of the perfect world' 
       were first laid"--|cProvided by publisher
