The White Bull (original title in French: Le Taureau Blanc) is a fable and a work of "contes philosophiques", a philosophical novel, written by the Age of Enlightenment-era philosopher Voltaire. The story is based on the Greek tale of Europa and the bull, where the white bull is in fact the Greek god Zeus. The date the story was written is unknown but it was published between the years 1773 and 1774. Voltaire's work seems to be prophetic in nature because the story was published only fifteen years before the French Revolution, when beheadings became common.

  • Le Taureau blanc (La blanka virbovo) estas rakonto de Voltaire, aperinta en 1773. La historio estas bazita sur la rakonto el la Antikva Grekio de Eŭropa kaj la virbovo. Tie la blanka virbovo estas fakte la greka dio Zeŭso. Sed la historio de la rakonto de Voltaire okazas en la Antikva Egipto. Oni ne konas kiam la verko estis verkita sed almenaŭ oni scias ke ĝi estis publikigita inter 1773-4. Tiu verko de Voltaire ŝajnas profeteca ĉar la historio estis publikigita ĝuste dekkvin jarojn antaŭ la Franca Revolucio, kiam la riskuloj devis esti prudentaj. (eo)
