Compassion's Edge

- Fellow-Feeling and Its Limits in Early Modern France

About Compassion's Edge

Compassion's Edge traces the relation between compassion and toleration after France's Wars of Religion. This is not, however, a story about compassion overcoming difference but one of compassion reinforcing division. It provides a robust corrective to today's hope that fellow-feeling draws us inexorably and usefully together.
