Making Truth in Early Modern Catholicism
Scholarship has come to value the uncertainties haunting early modern knowledge cultures; indeed, awareness of the fragility and plurality of knowledge is now offered as a key element for understanding early modern science as a whole. Yet early modern actors never questioned the possibility of certainty itself and never objected to the notion that truth is out there, universal, and therefore safe from human manipulation. 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. An international and interdisciplinary team of experts in fields ranging from the history of science to theology and the history of ideas analyses a number of practices that were central to maintaining and functionalizing the notion of absolute truth. Through such an interdisciplinary research the book shows how certainty about truth could be achieved, and how early modern society recognized the credibility of a wide plethora of actors in differentiating fields of knowledge.
An essay on comedy and the uses of the comic spirit
In "An Essay on Comedy and the Uses of the Comic Spirit," George Meredith explores the nature and significance of comedy in literature and society. Meredith argues that true comedy is a rare and valuable art form that requires a cultivated audience capable of appreciating its subtleties. He distinguishes between different types of humor, emphasizing that genuine comedy aims to engage the intellect and provoke thoughtful laughter rather than mere amusement. Meredith critiques the English tradition of comedy, which he sees as often lacking depth and relying on superficial wit. He contrasts this with the works of Molière, whose comedies are celebrated for their insight into human nature and society. Meredith highlights the importance of the comic spirit in addressing societal follies and promoting self-awareness. He also discusses the challenges faced by comic poets, including societal resistance and the difficulty of balancing humor with moral insight. Ultimately, Meredith champions comedy as a vital force for intellectual change and social critique, capable of illuminating the human condition and fostering a more reflective society.

L��pouvante
Jouer avec le feu est une activité notoirement dangereuse. S'il y avait pensé à deux fois, Onésime Coche, un journaliste à la recherche de sensationnel et d'une occasion de prouver l'incompétence des détectives parisiens, n'aurait pas fabriqué des indices pouvant le conduire à être arrêté comme meurtrier. Onésime Coche découvre qu'il est allé trop loin et estime que la guillotine va être son destin possible. Tétanisé par la peur, il se perd davantage lui-même en tentant de s'expliquer. Telle est la situation improbable que M. Maurice Level rend probable brillamment dans L'Épouvante, son premier roman, paru en mai 1908 dans la collection en volumes du Monde illustré.Cette nouvelle édition présente 2 novélisations de ce roman après un important dossier, sur Maurice Level et les Éditions du Monde illustré, réuni par Jean-Luc Buard (co-fondateur et rédacteur en chef de la revue Le Rocambole), ainsi qu'une bibliographie des réimpressions et traductions du roman L'Épouvante.
