Orthodoxy and Heresy in Eighteenth-century Society: Essays from the DeBartolo ConferenceRegina Hewitt, Pat Rogers Bucknell University Press, 2002 - 293 pages The essays in this volume use the concept of heresy to gain insight into the value of social order during the eighteenth century. By applying the vocabulary of religion to behaviours that might more usually be studied as deviance, the contributors can account for the complexity and vehemence of conflicts over right order played out in the literary, artistic, and political arenas of the age. The essays examine a range of cultural encounters between orthodox and heterodox figures. |
