SUMMARY:The Radical Enlightenment
DESCRIPTION:What are the prospects for radical thought in our own times?
  Some of the most eminent and interesting historians in the 
 world come to the Heyman Center for the Humanities on March 
 1 for a daylong conference\, to focus on some of the radical 
 and dissenting voices of the Enlightenment in both Europe an
 d America. At this conference\, Joyce Appleby\, Eric Foner\, Jo
 nathan Israel\, Margaret Jacob\, Phyllis Mack\, and Deborah Val
 enze discuss subjects ranging from the relation between scie
 nce\, religion and politics to Jefferson's radicalism\, and le
 ssons will also be drawn for the prospect of radical thought
  and politics for our own times by tracing the roots of the 
 radical tradition in the western world. That the range of id
 eas and innovations that emerged in Europe and in America ov
 er this period\, which we have come to label the "Enlightenme
 nt\," was far more varied than either that single label or th
 e standard scholarship on the subject might suggest is made 
 vibrantly clear.
