Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores early modern French society and culture, as seen through a close examination of the manners and morals of the 17th and 18th centuries. It draws on contemporary literature â" specifically the writings of the era's leading religious thinkers and moralists â" to provide a profound understanding of a society in transition. The author demonstrates that while this period began with a profound religious faith and a strong moral compass, the seeds of irreligion and moral decay were sown during the reign of Louis XIV and came to full flower in the libertine culture of the 18th century. This thought-provoking book sheds light on the complex relationship between religion, morality, and societal change.
