N2  - This book is an interdisciplinary exploration of the forms and uses of doubt in the works of Homer, Sophocles, Aristophanes, Cicero, Machiavelli, Shakespeare, and Montaigne. Through a close analysis of the literary and philosophical texts by these key authors, Michelle Zerba argues that doubt is a defining experience in both antiquity and the Renaissance, consistently pushing the boundaries of thought and representation
