The study explores previously unrecognized models for collective action that emerge during the sixteenth century religious wars"-- $c Provided by publisher. 520 $a Subjects of Affection uncovers an alternative to the modern model of human rights in an unexpected archive: the monarchist tragedies that shaped Louis XIV's absolutist France. Pairing political theory with performance studies, Anna Rosensweig argues that the right resistance, largely thought to have disappeared from French political thought in the aftermath of the religious wars of the sixteenth century, actually endured throughout the seventeenth century as a conceptual framework embedded and embodied in tragic drama. Rosensweig's reappraisal of early modern French tragedy provides a corrective to accounts of human rights that begin with the French Revolution, exploring previously unrecognized models for collective action that emerged during the religious wars and were sustained through French tragedy. She places sixteenth-century political treatises in dialogue with dramas by Robert Garnier, Jean Rotrou, Pierre Corneille, and Jean Racine, demonstrating how these tragedies, through their poetics and performance potential, staged a subject of rights whose collective constitution differed from the individualism of our modern rights framework--back cover. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references (pages 217-226) and index. 505 0 $a Introduction.
