Summary

This chapter considers the aesthetics of the mixed style in Rabelais, Montaigne, and Shakespeare as anticipating Rancière’s rereading of Kant’s third critique, and it tries to show what is distinctive about Auerbach’s account by contrasting him with a better-known definition of the Renaissance by his friend Erwin Panofsky.
