Bag om Culture of Accidents

Drawing on intellectual history, cultural criticism, and rhetorical theory, this book chronicles the narrative transformation of "accidents"-whether collapsing buildings, unexpected meetings in the marketplace, monstrous births, or pirate attacks-from a philosophical dead end to an occasion for revelation and wonder in early modern religious life, dramatic practice, and experimental philosophy.
