Terence Cave's work has made a major contribution to the rethinking of the relationship between literature, history and culture over the last half-century.

With eight contributions, this volume sheds new light on text, knowledge, and wonder in early modern France, which were more fundamentally intertwined than their modern counterparts.

The age of Shakespeare, Cervantes, Erasmus, Luther, and Machiavelli produced in France too some of Europe's greatest ever literature and thought: Montaigne's "Essays", Rabelais' comic fictions, Ronsard's poetry, Calvin's theology. This book introduces this literature and thought through an apparent paradox.
