Description

Explore how early modern culture understood and represented physical pain through this comprehensive academic volume from Brill. This interdisciplinary study examines pain across religious, legal, medical, literary, philosophical, and art historical perspectives, revealing how early moderns interpreted suffering during illness and weaponised pain as a rhetorical device in wider cultural debates. The collection brings together scholarly analysis of pain's role in early modern life, offering readers fresh insights into how contemporary thinkers grappled with the body's capacity for suffering and what it meant for broader discussions of ritual, justice, and human experience.

Key Features

The Sense of Suffering investigates pain through multiple academic disciplines including religious studies, legal history, and literary criticism.

Contributors analyse how early modern culture interpreted physical pain during illness and employed suffering as a rhetorical tool.

This volume from Brill is the 12th title in the Intersections series, positioning it within established scholarly frameworks.

The book explores pain's role across philosophy, art history, and medical thought, reflecting early modern intellectual approaches to bodily suffering.
