This book examines the dark, often brutal story of defining, constructing, and punishing heretics in early modern England, and especially the ways writers themselves contributed to or interrogated the politics of religious fear-mongering and demonizing. It illuminates the terrors and anxieties early modern writers articulated and the fantasies they constructed about pernicious heretics and pestilent heresies in response to the Reformation's shattering of Western Christendom. Treacherous Faith analyzes early modern writers who contributed to cultural fears about the contagion of heresy and engaged in the making of heretics, as well as writers who challenged the constructions of heretics and the culture of religious fear-mongering." -- $c Publisher website. 650 0 $a Religion and literature $z England $x History $y 16th century. 650 0 $a Religion and literature $z England $x History $y 17th century. 650 0 $a Christian heresies in literature. 650 0 $a Christian heretics $z England $x History $y 16th century. 650 0 $a Christian heretics $z England $x History $y 17th century. 651 0 $a England $x Church history $y 16th century. 651 0 $a England $x Church history $y 17th century. 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231020011515.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20190806075517.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=EF5CA2E26B5311E69AFE1DDBDAD10320 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
