He wrote more than 20,000 letters and more than 2,000 books and pamphlets.[2]<\/a><\/sup> He was an outspoken advocate of civil liberties, despite the risk this placed him in under the strict censorship laws of the time. As a satirical<\/a> polemicist<\/a>, he frequently made use of his works to criticize intolerance, religious dogma and the French institutions of his day.<\/p>\n
