Question: Giuseppe Bergman resembles the protagonist from a French satire written by what author?
Context: "The Battle of the Books" is the name of a short satire written by Jonathan Swift and published as part of the prolegomena to his "A Tale of a Tub" in 1704.  It depicts a literal battle between books in the King's Library (housed in St. James's Palace at the time of the writing), as ideas and authors struggle for supremacy.  Because of the satire, "The Battle of the Books" has become a term for the Quarrel of the Ancients and the Moderns. Candide Preis (originally called "Stadtschreiber Stipendium", later "Candide Preis") is the only one German-French Literary award, named for its French satire "Candide" (first published in 1759 by Voltaire). Since 1995 it's prize every year awarded by the Foundation Genshagen, the Literary Association Minden, the "Villa Gillet" (Lyon) and the Minister of Culture (France) to French and German contemporary authors. Candide is a French satire by the Enlightenment philosopher Voltaire. Les Caquets de l'accouchée is an anonymous French satire composed of several quires published in 1622.  They were reunited in 1623 under the title « "Recueil général des Caquets de l'Accouchée" ». Candide, ou l'Optimisme, ( ; French: ] ) is a French satire first published in 1759 by Voltaire, a philosopher of the Age of Enlightenment.  The novella has been widely translated, with English versions titled Candide: or, All for the Best (1759); Candide: or, The Optimist (1762); and Candide: or, Optimism (1947).  It begins with a young man, Candide, who is living a sheltered life in an Edenic paradise and being indoctrinated with Leibnizian optimism (or simply "optimism") by his mentor, Professor Pangloss.  The work describes the abrupt cessation of this lifestyle, followed by Candide's slow, painful disillusionment as he witnesses and experiences great hardships in the world.  Voltaire concludes with Candide, if not rejecting optimism outright, advocating a deeply practical precept, "we must cultivate our garden", in lieu of the Leibnizian mantra of Pangloss, "all is for the best" in the "best of all possible worlds". Giuseppe Bergman is the Candide-like protagonist of the works of Italian cartoonist Milo Manara.  The anti-heroic Italian youth stars in four graphic novels (comic books) which are an ironic deconstruction of adventure stories and comic books as a medium. Microcynicon: Six Snarling Satires is a work of poetic satire written by English playwright Thomas Middleton in 1597 and 1598.  The published version was burned publicly as part of the Archbishop of Canterbury's attack on verse satire.  Although a minor work, the poems included prefigure the interests of Middleton's mature work in sin, hypocrisy, and lust. (Les) Anecdotes de Suède ("Swedish Anecdotes") is a political satire written against the Swedish regime of the 1680s.  Probably dating to the end of that decade, it was first published in French, in two volumes, in 1716, under the full title "Les anecdotes de Suede, ou Histoire secrette des changemens arrivés dans ce royaume, sous le regne de Charles XI".  It subsequently appeared in German, English, and finally Swedish translations.  Various men have been suggested to be the author, including the German jurist Samuel von Pufendorf (1632–1694), whose name was on the German edition, but the issue remains unsettled.  It is one of the most controversial historical representations of the Swedish Empire, railing against the Great Reduction of 1680 in Sweden and especially sharply against Johan Gyllenstierna. Les Quinze joies de mariage ("The 15 Joys of Marriage") is an anonymous late 14th or early 15th century French satire in prose which presents a picture, full of sharpness and humour, of the rows and deceits which afflict the married state.  The misogynist satire is allied to a pitiless analysis of the blindness of husbands in everyday, concrete situations. To Venus in Five Seconds: An Account of the Strange Disappearance of Thomas Plummer, Pillmaker is a science fiction satire written by Fred T. Jane, the author of the original "Jane's Fighting Ships" and the founder of what would in time become the Jane's Information Group.  Published in 1897, the novel pokes fun at several of the main subgenres of speculative fiction that had become popular in the final years of the nineteenth century.
