Building on contemporary insights into the history of the text of the Bible, he criticised the hypocritical attitudes among the religious and social elite of his day concerning the biblical text and sexual morality. The work became notorious in the seventeenth century and led to its author’s banishment. In the eighteenth century, it exerted considerable influence on the way in which many in Europe came to see sexuality.   \tThis annotated edition with English translation also includes a comprehensive introduction that includes a contextualization of the De peccato originali and its impact.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePreface  Acknowledgements  List of Figures and Tables  Abbreviations  Editorial Note    Introduction   1 Life and Works   2 Intellectual Context and Influences   3 Reception   4 Style   5 Textual Tradition    Summary of the Contents of the DPO per Chapter    De peccato originali (Transcription and Translation)    Bibliography  Index","brand":"Brill","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53210702381399,"sku":"9789004342859","price":114.4,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/hadriaan-beverlands-de-peccato-originali-on-original-sin1679-an-annotated-edition-and-translation-9789004342859","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
