Through a diverse cast of religious theaterphobes, government officials, playwrights, art theorists, and protophilosophes, Connors shows the concerted effort in early Enlightenment France to use texts about theater to establish broader theories on emotion, on the enduring psychological and social ramification of affecting moments, and, more generally, on human interaction, motivation, and social behavior."-- Cover page 4.
