This book has been confusing because I dont get the ´´humor´´ you talk about. What I have understand is that Candide is a bastard child and he has a tutor. He likes Lady Cunegonde and then he kisses her after seeing the ´´best´´ tutor kissing her ´´mothers waiting-woman´´(21) and then she kisses Candide because she wanted to try what she saw. Then Candide is taken to Waldberghoff'-trarbk-dikdoff where he is kidnapped. He is almos killed but he is saved by the King ´´ The king of the Bulgars passed by at the moment and asked what crime the culprit had committed. Since the king was a man of great insight, he recognized from what he was told about Candide that here was a young philosopher utterly ignorant of the ways of the world, and granted him a pardon´´(24)
I am really confused of what is happening but that is what I have understand until know
