Orthodoxy and heresy in eighteenth-century society : essays from the DeBartolo Conference
"Orthodoxy and Heresy in Eighteenth-Century Society uses the concept of "heresy" to gain insight into the value of social order in eighteenth-century England and France. By applying the vocabulary of religion to behaviors that might more usually be studied as "deviant," the contributors account for the complexity and vehemence of conflicts over right order played out in the literary, artistic, and political arenas of the age."--BOOK JACKET
