Set in eighteenth-century Geneva, the book explores the dynamic interplay between the Reformation and the Enlightenment, illustrated through the contrasting figures of Calvin and Voltaire. It presents a revisionist view that challenges the notion of a straightforward decline of religion, emphasizing instead how Geneva's ties to French thought disrupted a society deeply rooted in Protestant-Reformation ideals. This nuanced analysis sheds light on the complexities of religious and intellectual transformations during this pivotal era.
