Contributions explore both literary texts (prose, poetry, and theater) and more intentionally polemical texts that fall outside of the traditional literary genres. Engaging the continuous casting and recasting of opposing worldviews, this collection of essays examines literature's use of polemic and polemic's use of literature as seminal intellectual developments stemming from the religious and social turmoil that characterized this period in France UR - https://doi.org/10.1515/9781501513510 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9781501513510 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9781501513510/original ER -
