[267]-282) and index.The heretic and the book -- Clean and dirty words -- Scandalous evidence -- The kitchen and the digest -- Poets, priests, and print -- Fabricated worlds and the Menippean satire -- Public scandals, withdrawn readers.Well-known scholars and poets living in sixteenth-century France, including Erasmus, Ronsard, Calvin, and Rabelais, promoted elite satire that "corrected vices" but "spared the person"—yet this period, torn apart by religious differences, also saw the rise of a much cruder, personal satire that aimed at converting readers to its ideological, religious, and, increasingly, political ideas. By focusing on popular pamphlets along with more canonical works, Less Rightly Said shows that the satirists did not simply renounce the moral ideal of elite, humanist scholarship but rather transmitted and manipulated that scholarship according to their ideological needs. Szabari identifies the emergence of a political genre that provides us with a more thorough understanding of the culture of printing and reading, of the political function of invectives, and of the general role of dissensus in early modern French society.French literature16th centuryHistory and criticismPolitical satire, FrenchHistory and criticismReligious satire, FrenchHistory and criticismBooks and readingFranceHistory16th centuryScandals in literatureInvective in literatureFrench literatureHistory and criticism.Political satire, FrenchHistory and criticism.Religious satire, FrenchHistory and criticism.Books and readingHistoryScandals in literature.Invective in literature.840.9/35844028Szabari Antónia1524374MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910784950303321Less rightly said3765175UNINA
