Synopsis: The essays in this volume share a common concern with investigating Enlightenment categories of historical understanding and determining how these categories helped shape Enlightenment culture. The contributors address the question of how eighteenth-century writers make sense of the past-how they interpret it, give it meaning and form, and deploy it for their own practical, aesthetic, and ideological purposes.Contributors and contents:Frank Palmeri, Conjectural History and the Origins of SociologyStuart Peterfreund, From the Forbidden to the Familiar: The Way of Natural Theology Leading up to and beyond the Long Eighteenth CenturyTony C.
