Description: | Select Guide Rating This volume in Pocock's acclaimed sequence on Barbarism and Religion examines the controversy caused by Gibbon's treatment of the early Christian church. Pocock challenges the assumption that Decline and Fall was intended as an attack on belief in the Christian revelation, and questions our understanding of the character of 'enlightenment'. |
