Representing Avarice in Late Renaissance France - Patterson, Jonathan (British Academy Post-doctoral Fellow, British Academy Post-doctoral Fellow, St Hugh's College, University of Oxford)

Representing Avarice in Late Renaissance France outlines the moral vocabulary and concepts used to describe avaricious behaviour in late Renaissance France and innovatively shows how the works of well-known authors engaged in productive dialogue with many of their lesser-known contemporaries on problems of avarice.
