More about the book
Set in 18th-century France, the book explores the rise of secular materialism through the lens of representation and the body. It examines how the depiction of physical forms, from atoms to anatomies, influenced Enlightenment thought. Central questions arise about how bodies should be represented and the impact of these representations on audiences. By focusing on these themes, it highlights the significance of material substance in shaping philosophical debates of the time.
