This book presents a series of studies of irreligious ideas in various parts of Europe during the two centuries following the Reformation. Atheism was illegal everywhere. The word itself first entered the vernacular languages soon after the Reformation, but it was not until the eighteenth century that the first systematic defences of unbelief began to appear in print. Its history in the intervening two centuries is significant but hitherto obscure. The leading scholars who have contributed to this volume offer a range of approaches and draw on a wide variety of sources to produce a scholarly, original, and fascinating book. \u003cem\u003eAtheism from the Reformation to the Enlightenment\u003c\/em\u003e will be essential reading for all concerned with the religious, intellectual, and social history of early modern Europe.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"OUP Oxford","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47615023841431,"sku":"9780198227366","price":19961.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780198227366.webp?v=1775097888","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/atheism-from-the-reformation-to-the-enlightenment-9780198227366","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
