For Bernard, the problem lies not with overtly secular arts and texts, but with beautiful objects that pander to human curiosity in the name of the church.
A similar problem presides over early development of the novel. Vilified for its lack of a classical model, the novel at first justified its existence as a moral guide. Preface after preface during the novel’s formative period claims an intent to delight and instruct simultaneously. Consider the following frontispiece from one of the myriad crime story pamphlets that influenced the joint rise of the novel and single-focus narration in Elizabethan England:
Sundrye strange and inhumaine Murthers, lately committed. The first of a Father that hired a man to kill three of his children. . . . Wherein is described the odiousnesse of murther, with the vengeance which God inflicteth on murtherers (Marshburn and Velie 1973: frontispiece)
