About The Book
Based on the Storrs lectures delivered at Yale University
A distinguished American historian challenges the belief that 18th century was essentially modern in its temper. In crystalline prose Carl L. Becker demonstrates that the period commonly described as the Age of Reason was, in fact, very far from that. Voltaire, Hume, Diderot & Locke were living in a medieval world. They “demolished the Heavenly City of St. Augustine only to rebuild it with more up-to-date materials.”
