Free Download William Cook Miller, "The Enthusiast: Anatomy of the Fanatic in Seventeenth-Century British Culture"
English | ISBN: 1501770802 | 2023 | 258 pages | PDF | 6 MB
The Enthusiast tells the story of a character type that was developed in early modern Britain to discredit radical prophets during an era that witnessed the dismantling of the Church of England’s traditional means for punishing heresy. As William Cook Miller shows, the caricature of fanaticism here called the Enthusiast began as propaganda against religious dissenters, especially working-class upstarts, but was adopted by a range of writers as a literary vehicle for exploring profound problems of spirit, soul, and body and as a persona for the ironic expression of their own prophetic illuminations.
