Dispositio: Problematic Ordering in French Renaissance Literature (Brill's studies in intellectual history, v. 157) : problematic ordering in French renaissance literature

Drawing on the classical concept of rhetorical "dispositio," this study gives new interpretations of a number of literary texts of the French Renaissance (Rabelais, Du Bellay, Montaigne and others). The often problematic ordering of these texts is studied from a variety of perspectives, historical, theoretical and cultural.
