treatises, letters and other sources of the period.

in scholastic and Renaissance notions of conscience
* Synthesizes literary, theological and historical
approaches
* Presents case studies from England and the Hispanic World that
reveal shared traditions, strategies, and conclusions regarding
moral uncertainty

as well as prominent individuals such as Thomas More

England, Spain, and France participated in political debate and
