The contributors to the volume each consider how the passing of historical information is an organic process that allows for the transformation of previously accepted truth.The volume covers a broad and fascinating scope of subjects presented by leading scholars. Anthony Grafton's contribution on the fifteenth-century forger Annius of Viterbo emphasizes the role of imagination in the classical revival; Lisa Jardine demonstrates the way in which Erasmus helped turn a technical and rebarbative book by Rudolph Agricola into a sixteenth-century success story; Alan Charles Kors finds the roots of Enlightenment atheism in the works of French Catholic theologians; Donald R. Kelley follows the legal idea of "custom" from its formulation by the ancients to its assimilation into the modern social sciences; and Lawrence Stone shows how changes in legal action against female adultery between 1670 and 1857 reflect basic shifts in English moral values. 606 $aCulture diffusion$zEurope$xHistory 607 $aEurope$xCivilization 607 $aEurope$xIntellectual life 615 0$aCulture diffusion$xHistory. 676 $a940.2 702 $aBlair$b Ann$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aGrafton$b Anthony$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910812709303321 996 $aTransmission of culture in Early Modern Europe$9708331 997 $aUNINA
