The work focuses on the transition from a positive and normative seventeenth-century consideration of theocracy, associated with the Jewish people, to its description in the 18th century as a universal, negative and primitive model. To this end, three authors are examined in their role of emblematic figures of this change, namely: Jacques Basnage, John Toland and Giambattista Vico. The study then highlights a radicalisation phase in mid-eighteenth-century France in the works by Nicolas Antoine Boulanger, and ends with the description of Boulanger's theocracy in Diderot and d'Alembert's Encyclopédie.Teocrazia Religion and politicsTheocracyPolitical scienceEuropeReligion and politics.Theocracy.Political science.321Richichi Iolanda Anna1348378NjHacINjHaclBOOK9910571735703321La Teocrazia3085846UNINA
