520 1 $a"Mitchell Greenberg explores the significance of
fantasies of the body in seventeenth-century France through
readings of some of the most intriguing texts of the
period." "In addition to his richly nuanced readings,
Greenberg integrates into his argument material from a broad
array of disciplines, including psychoanalysis, feminism,
epistemology and history. He also points out the
implications of his argument for the political, theological,
and historical thought of the period, moving effortlessly
from witch trials in France to discussions of bodies in
Renaissance English literary criticism to the works of
Bakhtin, Foucault, Freud, and Lacan."--BOOK JACKET.
