Making Truth in Early Modern Catholicism

Herausgeber: Badea, Andreea; Cavarzere, Marco; Boute, Bruno

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book investigates how early modern actors managed not to succumb to postmodern relativism, despite the increasing uncertainties and blatant disagreements about the nature of God, Man, and the Universe. It focuses on practices of negotiating credibility, not on conflicting notions of the content of truth.
