Description

In June 2006 delegates from eight countries representing six French, US, and British-based learned societies met at St Catherine's College, Oxford, for a conference on the French long seventeenth century entitled 'Modernites/Modernities'. Twenty of the best papers on religion, ethics and history were selected for this volume, and they present new perspectives on topics as diverse as devotion and pornography, artifice and the pursuit of truth, Bruscambille and Pascal, historiography from the sixteenth century to Voltaire, and, of course, the Querelle des Anciens et des Modernes. En juin 2006 un colloque sur le theme de la modernite pendant l'age classique a reuni a St Catherine's College, Oxford des specialistes venus de huit pays pour representer six societes savantes dont quatre francaises, une americaine, et une britannique. Vingt communications choisies parmi les meilleures sont recueillies dans le present volume, sur des sujets aussi divers que la devotion et la pornographie, l'artifice et la recherche de la verite, Bruscambille et Pascal, l'historiographie tant du seizieme siecle que de Voltaire et, bien entendu, la Querelle des Anciens et des Modernes.
