It is a fascinating chronicle of faith in the Word, and in words, and the extraordinary length to -which people have gone to defend sacred ideas. Alain Cabantous shows that the language of blasphemy, a language of accusation and defense, was a battleground where religious dogma and secular rule clashed, with their respective agents-the priest and the judge-competing to define the terms of obedience and the proper reaction to a variety of curses.Beginning with a review of acts and crimes of blasphemy in biblical times, including the second commandment‘s injunction against taking God‘s name in vain, Cabantous examines the close relationship between religious authority and royal sovereignty in the sixteenth century, when kings ruled by divine right and attacks against God were implicit attacks on the nature of kingship. Punishing blasphemy was a way for the king to rule as God‘s representative and an occasion for the church to assert its control over language. The narrative continues with an exploration of acts of blasphemy, as well as related incidents of desecration and profanation, which were regarded as religious and civil offenses up to and beyond the French Revolution. Mid-nineteenth-century Catholic critics of the Revolution, Cabantous shows, claimed that revolution itself was a blasphemy and a profanation. More than simply a comprehensive inventory of the uses and bans on blasphemy, Cabantous offers a lively analysis of the symbolic power of language itself.
