Examines five early modern novels from the seventeenth century in
Spain and France: Cervantes's Don Quijote, Zayas's Desenganos
amorosos, Scarron's Roman comique, Cyrano de Bergerac's L'Autre
Monde, and Mme. de Lafayette's Zayde. This book enables upper level
students and scholars to see how the authors use the developing
form of the novel to engage in skeptical inquiry. This book allows
students and scholars of early modern literature, history and
philosophy to see how the novel can shed new light on the period by
exploring how literature becomes a means to express these
differences and put them in productive dialogue. By identifying the
philosophic stakes of these literary works, this book shows
students and scholars how these novels are part of the larger
skeptical turn of the late sixteenth and early seventeenth century
in Europe enabling them to see the importance of studying
literature alongside history and philosophy.
